Being unemployed, Kurt set in motion a routine that he would follow for the rest of his life. He would rise at around noon and eat a brunch of sorts. Kraft Macaroni and Cheese was his favorite food. After eating, he would spend the rest of the day doing one of three things: watching television, which he did unceasingly; practicing his guitar, which he did for hours a day, usually while watching TV; or creating some kind of art project, be it a painting, collage, or three-dimensional installation. This last activity was never formal– he rarely identified himself as an artist–yet he spent hours in this manner. Charles R. Cross

He felt that there was something very sexy about watching these actresses. After all, he was a man who desired women more than anything, and he spent hours upon hours trying to figure out how to be one of them.
