The day to day journal of Brian Parra, a self-obsessed music promoter and California state employee, documenting his minor philosophical triumphs, aggressive atheism, concern for the human condition, rambling social commentary, observations about morality, dating tribulations, drinking stories, hangovers, employment woes, pop culture critiques, involvement in the lower echelons of the music industry, love of his office plants and evolution into a compassionate, responsible mature human being. Okay, mostly it's about his drinking and office plants.
