ex machina


perhaps spalding finally found his perfect moment

sadly, but not surprisingly, spalding gray's body was found today .

i met spalding in olympia washington many years ago at a signing for monser in a box . despite feeling a bit wierd about it since i wasn't typically an autographhound, i wanted nothing more than to have him sign my "first edition" swimming to cambodia , because it had changed my life when i saw it over and over and over again on pbs in the late 80s.

spalding arrived late, smelling of liquor and obviously drunk. even at the time, i detected a bit of sadness as he wrote, "To Eric, Please believe of [sic] all "Perfect Moments"! - Spalding Gray".

"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
