		<title>The Next Chapter and other stories</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Once upon a time, many months ago, I came across this article on what drives people to create. It struck my eye, because it actually reminded me of a previous conversation with Chris about this space and how somehow it was important and should be backed up and saved and not lost (his thoughts, not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ode to the man down the hall</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Oh, polite old man who lives down the hall from me What in the world has made you so angry? Heading out for a run, I walked by your door And heard you yelling that someone was a &#8216;fucking whore&#8217; I&#8217;ve never known you to curse or raise your tone And I&#8217;m not sure if [...]]]></description>

		<title>If by Rudyard Kipling</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don&#8217;t deal in lies, Or being [...]]]></description>

		<title>media (an excerpt)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Somehow without anybody really noticing, the news changed from events that affect us &#8211; such as major wars and stock market crashes &#8211; to stuff that doesn&#8217;t affect most of us at all, like athletes slaying their wives. Governments have figured out how to control the big bone-headed catastrophes that made news in the past. [...]]]></description>

		<title>chivalry</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I&#8217;m waiting for the elevator with the old guy who calls me &#8216;sir&#8217; all the time. As we wait, I explain to him that I was almost out the door when I realized that I forgot my office keys. So there&#8217;s some idle chitchat about where I work and so on and then he [...]]]></description>

		<title>Musical madness in my city</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the Kid Rock concert was first announced for the Halifax Commons, I actually had typed up a draft of a &#8220;Things that make me shake my head&#8221; post about it. The reason being that four or five years ago, Kid Rock was booked to play the Metro Centre (a venue of about 10 000) [...]]]></description>

		<title>paper heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the past four days, there have been five little rectangles of notepaper on the stairs in my apartment building. One on every second stair and then an extra one sitting on the radiator. On each piece of paper, in pink and blue, purple and orange, red and rose, there was the drawing of a [...]]]></description>

		<title>a day in the life&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[About a week and a half ago, I cracked one of my fingernails in half. Not enough to go all the way down to the nailbed, but definitely enough to cause some considerable discomfort. After reading up online, I found out that I could bond the two sides together with nail polish, at least until [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cubicle to the Cage</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cubicle to the Cage from Hemmings House Pictures on Vimeo. . . . It surprises even me how much I seriously (honestly) considered this. I&#8217;m exactly in the perfect demographic for it. I&#8217;m exactly what they&#8217;d be looking for. But it&#8217;s not for me. Not right now.]]></description>
