I’m so deeply disappointed with my life. I’m beginning acting way too late. I basically have no chance. My entire family’s dead. I’m the saddest person alive. I listen to Patsy Cline’s “Crazy” over and over on youtube and cry; then I read comments below the song like—“r.i.p. grandma, i’ll love you forever!!!”—and I cry for hours. I wake up and don’t even know how I got where I am. I don’t even know how I came to New York or why? I’m over 30 and sleeping on an air mattress on the floor, next to Matt Skky, who sleeps on the bed. What went wrong? I must be schizophrenic.
Call me a plagiarist, call me an alcoholic, call me a son-of-a-bitch, but still grant that I’m one of the most original Men of Letters in the Western Cannon. I’m the American Experiment: Part Monster, Part Weirdness, Part Genius!
I never understood the phrase buying the farm. Buying the farm! You're dead and now you want a piece of property essential to keeping people alive? How selfish can you be? Buying the farm. Whenever you die they always say you can't take it with you but, apparently, you can take eight acres of corn.

Sorry the Comedy Luck Gods didn;t smile on your index card that night.

I'm starting a dream journal for all my sex dreams with Mark Normand. So far, there's none. But I'm keeping it on the nightstand. Because the day will come when my Mark Normand journal has as many entries as my Zach Sims journal.
I want to taste your ass and smell your cock, while I surround my mouth over your anal and suction the poo properly into my mouth, you dirty rotten hor!
