pro, the

one of the things that's so amazing and so dangerous about the city in which i live is the feeling that anything and everything is possible. all too often, we get caught up in this idea and fail to realize either that we are reaching far beyond our means or, worse, that our creative endeavours aren't worthy of the accolades we think they are.

in this town, everyone thinks they're a celebrity.

all of that said, i'm still itching for something new to arise out of the structures that are, mostly, imploding on themselves. i've been in the city for eight years, in the music business for six; is it because i'm daft that i haven't yet reinvented the wheel, or is it because i'm just not thinking hard enough? i'm about ready to let it go and to get back to what was the impetus for being here in the first place: words.

when i've got it figured out, look for it when you least expect it. the pro. the opposite of the con, for starters. also the certain level of respect that most of us lack for each other, i.e., professionalism.

i never quit things. i just think up more things to take up space in my head.
