Emily ordered a pizza last night from Picco. It was so good, she had them put extra garlic on it. I love it when there is just enough garlic on something to make it sting your tongue. Almost like you are eating a really weak red pepper.

My voice is almost gone. Too much of the blues still ain't a bad thing. All yesterday I was singing, Emily was playing, or a CD was spinning. It was a superb time.
Saturday night I was working at the bar. I hate the situations I have to deal with there sometimes. For starters, a girl who was going to Emerson was in the bar...

Well, a girl who is at the bar with her dad, as well as a married woman who is at the bar without her husband, are not the type of ladies you should be using as a guage.
Speaking as a girl, I would never suspect that a guy with a suicidegirls account was gay. Nor one whose cheeks flush at certain things I might say. And there are plenty that I am tempted to, believe me.

So last night my sister and I actually went out and finally bought the garbage disposal for the kitchen sink. Now that nasty funk will no longer linger in our kitchen ... that is, as long as Dane installs it while I am at work today. I would have done it last night, but without a wrench, it would not have worked so well. I...

You're inspiring me to do actual work on my place. The biggest problem that we have is that it's freezing, absolutely freezing, especially on the top floor which happens to be where my bedroom resides. Right now I have three blankets and two sweatshirts on.
I don't know where you get your 'supplies', but someday you should let me know... my friend at berklee is no longer in the business, shall we say.
I am strict on almost everything. I eat honey, and one other thing that I shall not mention expicitly, suffice to say that I can guarentee the "animal" is far from uncomfortable in its procurement.
You have to tell me how your second date was. Yes, jealous; she's a lucky lady.

I am continually stunned by the audacity of some people. Just stunned.
On a cheery note, I've got a lunch date today. Hopefully this one won't be as bland as the last. She's a lovely girl that I know very little about. We will see if I can draw anything out of her, or if my mind goes blank all lunch long.
Oh, and I'm...

Thanks... I'm working on it.
How was your date? I must admit I'm jealous.
But I do hope it went well... lunch dates are always tricky because if it does go sour, you still have to go through the rest of the day kicking yourself. I like having my disappointments at night, because then you can just say sod it all and go to bed.
Chili is amazing. All spicy food is amazing. And chili fries are quite possibly the best thing that human beings have discovered this side of penicillin.
Don't let people bother you. I like to think most just don't know any better, as a general rule.

I am so terribly dissapointed. Like when you are dropping a glass, you are too late to try to stop it, so you just watch as it hits and shatters on the ground. You wish you could have caught the glass, but you just couldn't. The most arrogant, stubborn, and "independent" people are nothing more than sheep with simple minds. You only question things when...

String Cheese Incident was a good time. The cheap liquor in NH was also a good time. Last night playing pool at my buddy's parents' house, I drank a whole bottle of Woodford's Reserve. It was quite a delicious treat, and my pool skills didn't change one bit from totally sober to totally intoxicated, I sucked either way.

What kind of dreams have you been having? I can't remember the last time I had a vivid dream... most of the time they vanish the moment I wake up. I'm sorry that your sleep is suffering, though... are you tired when you're awake, during the day?
Things are nice for me now. I'm leaving tomorrow morning for Detroit, which means I miss a lot of exciting boston happenings, but I've never been there so it will at least that part is exciting.
Do you have lots of what you want?

Last night I finished building the computer for our entertainment center. Just a nice little one so that we can rip all our cd's onto it, that way we can hook it into our sound system and just broadcast all music directly from the computer to any room in the house. No need to ever touch a cd again once they are all ripped. I...

If your apartment is going to the best thing in the whole South End, then mine is going to be the best in Brighton. Only I get excited by stupid little things, like finding the perfect door knobs. I'm perfectly happy being eccentric though.
Well you can't be too socially retarded; you seem like you have some pretty great friends. I'm sure you know that. But it's just further proof that it doesn't matter whether or not you socialize with most people; you don't really need most. Just a few.
Did you finish the book? You'll have to tell me how it was.

I'm feeling a bit withdrawn today. After spending several hours in the Probate/Superior/Land Courts, I've had just about as much as I can handle when it comes to incompetence.
There is no reason that a copy and certification of a document should take 38 minutes. Then again, I suppose copying two pages, putting a stamp on one of them, and having a clerk sign it...

i can't imagine for being in jail as long as she was simply for not revealing a source.
i wonder if there's anything i believe in that much.
blackalicious and pot are two wonderful things; don't put them off too long

my weekend was actually nice and low-key, exactly the way it hasn't been for months. i loved every second of it. the highlight was probably saturday afternoon; i walked around harvard avenue and coolidge corner a wee bit stoned and laughed at silly little things.
i don't think not wanting a girlfriend makes you socially odd.
smart, maybe.

So the sister and Dane returned home yesterday to a nice and clean apartment. They liked it. Lets see how long the cleanliness lasts. 
This weekend I took to a very lazy time. My right knee has started to give me serious issue as of late. I am currently walking with a limp, and it isn't leaving me too happy. So now, after a five...

Don't know where bukowski's is, never been. Wanna e-mail me? You can catch me at jeremy.freeman@gmail.com, and then we can chat in a less public forum.

did you ever end up recording? your journal entries are so much more informative than mine.

The pain of stupid people is getting on my nerves. If you don't know what you are doing, don't just go at it, ASK! Computers can be real big problems if you have no idea how to use the settings, so don't just do, ASK!

At a certain level of performance, music is no longer a deeply personal matter. Occasionally music may seem selfish and egocentric to the musician, but the beauty of music is that so long as anyone else can hear it, the music is no longer about one persons enjoyment. If you had asked me last year why I kill (figuratively) myself for music, I would have said because I love to sing, solely for the pleasure of singing, blah de blah de fucking blah. However, why would you perform for other people if it was just for your own enjoyment? If music is solely for you, what are you communicating when you sing? Are you just telling yourself and no one else to believe what you sing? Personally the connection that I have with the audience when I am performing is the reason I still love to sing, and without that, even if singing makes me immensely happy just in practice, its all just a bunch of noise.
