age-ed and sick-lee

aged and sickly he sat and read from the yellowed pages of his own journals.

"Hindsightal lessons to a more junior self:

- read this again and again: A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole.

- listen to this three times before passing judgment: Kid A by Radiohead.

- do not quote from this movie during youthful, precoital relationships: The Big Lebowski.

- appreciate this band's ability to force emotion into sinusoidal waves: Sigur Ros.

- let this change your life: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.

- and let this change it back: Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky.

- note the catalog of an artist or author and study its progression.

- enjoy a relationship with words.

- appreciate genius.

- listen to music through headphones.

- lay with your wife."
