I was superhuman today.
A day in the life of Dirty Frank
Arrival: 7:30am.
I have a lot of deliverables hanging over my head at the office right now but today I was determined to work no more than 10 hours. I’m a (former) workaholic here, people - a 10-hour cap is a huge step for [...]

I remember when the force of your love shook me from the grips of my death. You never gave up on me.
I will never forget.
I remember when you exposed the filth of your character. It broke my heart. You gave up on yourself.
I will never forget.
And there is no clear victor between [...]

I went to acupuncture last week. I find there is a sense of peace that accompanies knowledge of toxic and wasteful energy leaving the body.

I took the night off from my typical workout at the gym to jump on an earlier train and walk home from the station. I enjoyed my solitude and I thanked the wind for cleansing me of any residual wasteful energy that might have been clinging to me.

Not falsified to say that I found God

Dear Size 8,
It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance; I’m looking forward to getting to know you better.
