Hello diabetes, hello ruptured coronary artery.

Wow

"Does the realization of the meaninglessness and absurdity of life necessarily require suicide?"

Now there's something to write an essay about.

I'm glad the answer he came up with was "No."

Shifty

More of the same. I did something and it's somewhere. It's nothing new, but now the Potato Pirates website is at potatopirates.com. There's buried treasure somewhere on the homepage. See if you can find it.

Endo Summer Update

Some things have changed since June.

mattemrick.com has not. The CreateDesignDestroy site mentioned before is no longer at the sas.upenn.edu address and has been combined with mattemrick.com.

The Potato Pirates webpage has also moved. The address, until issues surrounding the name 'potatopirates.com' have been resolved, is now potatopirates.mattemrick.com.

My senior thesis seminar has officially started in earnest and as part of it, continual updates of my senior thesis blog, And Hunt Soy, are necessary.

I'm planning on getting back in the swing of things with watching good movies. The MIWWAP blog should experience some updates too.



The artwork for the Potato Pirates self-titled first album is just about done. I really enjoyed working with Sterb on getting that done. The album itself should be completed and printed by the end of the month.

I'm thinking of starting a new segment called "Places I've Napped." For some reason naps have become (if not always have been) an important and much enjoyed part of my life. I have started napping anywhere and everywhere, and a record of the places I nap might be interested. Stay tuned on that one...

I think that's about it. Happy September.

Hello Internets

I did it! It exists! It....is not all the way finished.

I also got a new computer. It's sexy.

And I'll probably say it again, but these guys embody what I want to end up doing. Their videos are top notch and have some quality I can't put my finger on, but they make me feel inspired leave me awe-stricken.
