I’ve been toying with the idea of giving up all forms of waste for one month. For example, I would bring in my coffee cup every time I wanted a coffee and I couldn’t throw away any leftover food. I could pack it for leftovers or maybe feed it to a dog so that wouldn’t [...]

No Deception – Sept 10
The deception of D-.
No Deception – Sept 8
Car alarms really have to be the most useless invention known to man. I sit at my local coffee shop and my ears are being assaulted by a constant, annoying beeping that’s been going on for the last 5 minutes straight. Ok, maybe not 5 minutes but at least the last 3. Stupid honesty… So [...]
No Deception – Sept 7
It seems that this month is going to be more full of meat than almost any other month. Just like August was more full of intoxicants due to the previous months sobriety, this month I’m eating meat with reckless abandon. Go Team carnivore! Nom nom nom…
No Deception – Sept 3 PM
Whoa. Just came home to see that my girlfriend L— found a picture of a girl that I was sort of seeing when her and I first met. The picture is of A—, a cute and scantily clad brunette sitting on my bed. She is smiling up at the camera and doesn’t leave much of [...]
No Deception – Sept 3 AM
Update from yesterday: Apparently this friend didn’t want to see my ass as much as I didn’t want to see his. When I told him I’d get him a taxi he obliged and that was that. Pretty easy considering all the effort I wasted worrying about it! Speaking of wasted effort… Wow. My life is [...]

Jeff and I drove all through the night (about 8 hours or so) until we hit the same gourmet breakfast place in Lee Vining California which had all the great bacon and breakfast meats I was drooling over last month. I ordered my usual farmers breakfast of bacon & eggs over medium w/ sour dough [...]
No Meat – Aug 30
Burning man is over and not eating meat wasn’t that hard. Even if I was craving meat badly the state of unending total intoxication I was in would have kept me from noticing much. Actually, as I’m now writing this in my month of no deception I have to say that the hyperbole of being [...]
No Deception – Sept 2
I’m fucking pissed off. I want to lie so badly that I can’t stand it. It’s not even a BIG lie either. It’s a tiny shifting of the truth for a perfect alibi. Let me explain but here’s the cliff notes version: I went to burning man with a friend I’ve known for about a [...]
No Deception – Sept 1
I was going to start this month out saying I was giving up lying but there really are many more forms of deception than just lying. You can deceive by omission, you can deceive by implication, deception by exaggeration etc. That’s why I’ve chosen the word deception to measure my progress. After a hearty meal [...]
