a bottle of black ink

4 hours of ink

today i took the bus to cole harbour and spent four hours at kara's getting tattooed.
i did some covering of my lame tattoos (the one on my foot and the one on my back)
now they are plain black shapes. the one on my foot is a plain black rectangle, and the other is a black circle.
i also got a new one.

this. on my back. pretty nice eh?

junos smunos

i'm doing a lot for the juno week. i don't necessarily care about the junos very much, but the preparation is pretty exciting.
postering is fun. if you see a centre for arts and technology poster somewhere on spring garden, around the south end, or on quinpool, i most likely put it there.
this afternoon, i had coffee with sean macgillvray at uncommon grounds, to discuss music associations/the union. i didnt think i'd be intimidated, but i definetly was. it was pretty bad. me on one side, looking all scared and nervous, him on the other side, doing all the talking. i hope he didnt realize how retardedly nervous i was. that would be a little embarrasing.
edie sedgwick was spayed and is really stoned. she's wearing a cone around her neck because she picks the hell out of the stiches. is pretty hilarious.

back to postering. exciting.

antigonish

potatos and fish

4 new houses have popped up in my neighborhood. they're all painted a disgusting color, something i would imagine would be called 'country blue' or something like that. all i know is that it makes me want to puke looking at my window.

antigonish's little metro is thriving. the walmart is next to the superstore, which is across from the home depot. staples is in the middle, the lobster treat is off to the side, and a tiny little strip mall sits right across my walmart.
my prom date in grade 12 wanted to take me to the mcdonalds in walmart for dinner, but they were closing early, so he couldnt.
this little visit has been nice. i bonded with my dad, we smoked in the garage together. my mom came out and yelled at us. seeing my brother reminds me of how much smarter i am than him. it's always nice to feel smarter than someone.
i went to a party at my friend nicole's house. it was small, but better. wobble face pictures are fun. you take a picture of yourself shaking your head really fast with your mouth open.

i bought a new copy of pj harvey's 'rid of me' after a certain dog chewed the hell out of my old copy. i wore my gilbert switzer/be bad shirt and lots of people asked questions about it. i answered as best as i could.
if you start seeing crowds of people with popped up collers and elastic/velcro shoes, you definetly have me to thank/stone to death

junction

so, recluse-dom it is.
i had one person that i hung out with in the city semi-regularly. besides that, i was in school or at home, or being part of the background of a weekly tradition, or at special occasions.
my therapist said awhile ago that i'm 'purposely sabatoging my relationships with people to gain seclusion.' she seems to think that's a bad thing, but when i think about it, why should i have friends now if i'm just going to treat them badly and then go through the shitstorm of fighting and eventually losing them, making both myself and said friends feel like total hell? it would save a lot of time and energy if i were to just cut it all out. some may say that it's a pretty sad existance, but i was pretty much doing it already, and now that there is virtually no one, i can relax in my (supposed)subconsciously desired seclusion.


alright, see you all in the grocery stores!

talk to god

God:What do you want me to tell you?
Me: how often you fuck whores
God:Hourly.
Me: how much do you pay them?
God:Money has no meaning for robots.
Me: so you're a robot?
God:Interesting deduction. You are correct, , I have a heart of silicon.
Me: it must hurt the whores when you fuck them
God:What does "it" refer to?
Me: your metal phallic

the luxuries of an 18 year old with semi-loaded parents

i called my mom today to ask her to forward me a bit of cash to buy a couple 1/4" cables. i talked to her for a little bit. the usual stuff.

the subject of my house being sold came up. a little background info, my house is owned by an individual person and is rented by a real estate company. apparently the woman who owns it wants to sell it. we're worried the buyer will either raise our rent (currently 275 a month, which is extremely cheap for a house on dresden row) or not want to rent at all (which means i have no where to live in 3 months)
so my parents are thinking about buying the house, if it's affordable. if they bought it, we would be guaranteed a place to live for the next few years and our rent won't increase.

my mother's birthday is in june. i plan on giving her something very nice.

bottlecrotch

last night was a blast.

i worked the door for the divorce showcase, which was pretty spectacular in it's own rights.
i kind of fell asleep for the first little bit. i've been trying to really sit down and listen and appreciate it. i'm going to the next time.

i felt bad when these girls came in, and their friend had enough money but they didnt have any. they walked outside to watch through the window. just as i was about to get up and tell them to come inside and i'd look the other way, they came in with tobias, who said they could be on his guest list, and then i felt like a jerk. feeling like a jerk isnt pleasant.

after the show at the one world, i helped derrick record le coque et les phoques. i can't say anything about that without laughing.
i drank a pitcher of beer with a straw. it started smelling like puke, so i gave some to mike d.

it was a good night

i really think so

someone do a cover of 'turning japanese'

''i'm lookin for the kinda guy
who masturbates, looks at his hands
and thinks about how great those children would have been''

swackets aren't warm enough i guess

so i have pneumonia.
i guess that's what i get for not wearing a jacket all winter.

i got a prescription, but i can't get it at the drugstore here until i have some sort of prescription info. i have no idea what it is at all.
i missed a makeup exam today because of this goddamn sickness.
being sick really blows

i pagliacci

i've been listening to opera,debussey and portishead pretty religiously for the past few weeks. i don't really do a lot of things religiously. except reading celebrity news, and smoking. so it's been nice. claire de lune is the most amazingly beautiful thing ever written. and i think my favorite opera is la traviata. favorite porishead song:half day closing.

i slept for an hour on sunday night, and then spent 8 hours in the studio on monday. i think i was the most cracked up i've ever been. in my state, i managed to enjoy myself by being completely useless. i think lil might have been in the same state of mind.
he was reading a manual for something he recently purchased, and it was quite, verbal. i think it was describing different ways to mic a guitar cabinet, and it said 'both ways are fine, but one is sort of like a handjob, and the other sort of like a blowjob. they both get the desired result, but one has a much more desirable build up to the result than the other.'

i was going to attempt to go to rockin 4 dollars this evening. instead i slept and had dreams/
one of my dreams was that i won an oscar. i don't know what for, but i won one. in my acceptance speech i thanked a guy named morris.

i'm going to get back to dreaming now.
