re: profile pic - it goes along with my theory that all mormons own trampolines Jumpin for Jehovah!

I just have a problem with the idea that by doing a copious amount of drugs, one is immediately more enlightened than the person who hasn't. I think that mind-altering, mind-bending and mind-enhancing drugs can be useful tools (aside from just being fun), but that enlightenment is something that one works towards, and not something that one has bestowed upon one. As an analogy, it's like saying that because I spend a lot of time daydreaming, I'm more creative than other people. That may be true, but unless I take the creative impulses contained in those daydreams and apply them to something -- words, ink, paint, clay, wood, marble, dirt, what have you -- I haven't actually CREATED anything. I can take a handful of pills, sit back and marvel at the wonders of the universe, but unless I take those insights and codify them into something that makes sense when I'm sober, then what was the point? If I'm a self-centered, egotistical, judgmental prick when I'm not on drugs, then what's the point? If the experience doesn't change my waking self, then what's the point? More than a few problems arise when you start saying, "I like myself better when I drink/smoke/pop/drop/snort/stick a needle in my arm." The fact is, I've met plenty of people when they've been in altered states, and they can be just as unpleasant to be around as they are when they're unaltered.

Of course, I seem to be in the minority on this.

i do too love you more...



since i have no job and nothing to do I'll call tomorrow.
maybe even stop by and show off my new tattoos... you remember those stars i drew on my ankles, i'm getting them done, for free mind you, tonight!
ok gotta call echo... i suck at calling people, but i promise to try really hard, so if you dont hear from me tomorrow then... e-mail me some dirty rantings!

Id send ya the fruit but it might not get there in good shape. The juicer is useless without the fruit.
It's not that parents really suck...they just don't know what the hell is going on once you reach a certain piont.

I can identify on two counts:
1)I had a good friend in high school who was a strict Mormon. He was a nice enough guy, tolerant, but his father was a quintessential misogynist asshole. Creepy--a new blond kid every year. My friend was amazingly strict--not only no alcohol but no caffiene, voulntary celibacy, etc. The story that sums him up best was that we were ice climbing and he got hit in the head with a huge block of ice, go up, and yelled "golly gee whiz!!!!" We hit the ground right after he got up...
2)I just got incredibly good news, and the condescending phone conversation with my parents added an unfortunate layer of humilation to the mix, Ugh--like you, don't know why I bother.
Hang in there!

jehovahs witness's just the same.

Happy turkey day.
Take another shower for me...

mee-ow.
i mean.. gobble gobble.

Can I admit defeat and skip right to the booty rubbins?

That is one challenge where it might be better to be the loser.

Thanks! That's really sweet. xx

You're the one that turns me on and cracks me up at the same time. You write some funny shit, E. I can tell you are a mad genius...

I dunno...I figured you looked familiar...but I couldn't figure it out....hhhhmmmmmm? Where could it be from?

Fight Club is just so genius. My friend Lydia considers it the best possible porn a straight gal could possibly watch. It's got it all! She kinds digs guys beating the shit out of each other. Her magazine is called Sex and Guts. sexandguts.com

Anyway, cool for turning that dude on to it. It's great!

i'd kind of like to see Harmony Korine's version of it called FIGHT HARM. it might have never been completed since he ended up in the hospital after the sixth or seventh fight.
