Today I play before an audience, albeit a small one, for the first time in about 5 years.

And I'm going to see if I can meet Robbie Robertson, who's in town to receive an honourary doctorate.

My dog is watching you.

Would "Break a leg!" be appropriate, or is that only for theatre? Superstitions confuse me. How about "Have fun!"? :-D

I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more. I mean, he hands you a nickel, he hands you a dime, he asks you with a grin if you're having a good time, and he finds you every time you slam the door. I ain't gonna work for Maggie's brother no more.

Asshole.

nice reference

I've been playing like a lunatic. Alex wanted us to play at a party last week, but it was supposed to be a barbecue, it was raining, the playing never happened. But the party will happen this Friday, and we will play.

I hadn't played at all for years until the end of April. Now I'm a real guitar player--solos, fills, improvised accompaniment, you name...

I'm going insane. The warm weather has arrived and the skirts are everywhere. Long ones that flash leg as they walk. I follow and watch the wrestling buttocks, squirming beneath maddeningly thin denim. I want to fuck till I die. I swear if I was single I'd just fuck everything that I could get my hands on. Girls, boys, you name it.

Fuck, fuck, fuck,...

Just killed a moth. It pained me to do it: I just kept remembering that scene in Rhys' "Wide Sargasso Sea" where Antoinette picks up the enormous tropical moth and calls him something like 'handsome soldier'. Me, I'm just freaked out by an insect with that kind of body mass. I just don't like bugs.

I pity Cara. Oh man. And I want to stab...

Who's tired of me bitching? Ooh, ooh! I am, I am! Okay, so it's unanimous.

My brother left a few hours ago. It was a good visit; we spent most of the time complaining about our father. Bro's got a Jamaican girlfriend, and pops, who's a man of colour himself, which makes us his offspring walking multicultural artifacts, is prejudiced against every other colour, so...

How are things now with your bro? I mean, did you actually "lose" him through marriage?

You got me thinking about how women approach my brother and I. I don't know about how his girlfriends have regarded him, but my girlfriend knows that he comes first for me. She's an only child and jokes about envying me for the simplicity of my side of a wedding: my best man is my brother, with my teenage half-brother serving as groomsman. Done.
beatrice:
i think complaining is my job.

i have a sister 4 years older than me and we're very close, though not as close as we used to be. we worked together at this residential high school a few years back, and for the first time we shared a social life--friends, activities, partying. she was, hands down, my best friens during that time. but then she left that job and got married and bought a house and had a baby and got a real job and i'm still living a single life. it does put a distance between us. and it does't help that we now live 3000 miles apart.

Not much to say. Bought the re-issue of Miles "Filles De Kilimanjaro" this afternoon so I can give my brother the old one when he comes tomorrow.

"The Bicycle Thief" is the most wonderful movie ever. I understand that now.

Ever had a conversation with someone full of ideals but totally lacking a sense of humour? Oh, they think they've got one because they notice...

my current spin on things is
i am mortal and ignorant.

how can *I* know god?

there might be,
there might not be.
i will not know till the day comes
when i cross to another place
or float in oblivion.

either way i try (somtimes badly)
to live my life fully
and laugh with all my heart and fears and love
as often as life will let me.

if my choices brings me eternal damnation
thats a okay because i lived it
in the ways that I chose!

and anyone that tells me i'm wrong
does not understand that

this

is

MY

life!

kiss
kikka:
the bicyce thief...um...makes ma always laugh whatever

thank you for the keener one so much, i adore her
and yesh there's a new set

A friend lent me the new Nick Cave album; how sad I was to find it thoroughly mediocre. Luckily, I threw in the DVD with the video for "Babe, I'm on Fire" before listening to it. That song and video let me forgive a lot of what's wrong with the rest of the album.

So I iron my pink dress shirt with the grey check...

So my brother, the 21 year-old, was supposed to visit me this weekend. I was figuring he'd come Friday or Saturday, but he says he'll come on Sunday and leave on Monday. So I can forget about taking him to pub night to meet my friends. And I can forget about taking a walk with him to the huge CD store. I didn't think he'd...

Well, you buy a cheap webcam, you get no software. How it's a webcam without software to make it function as a webcam is a bit beyond me, but I suppose once you've decided to be a beggar, the chooser's clothes just won't fit right.

If you're reading this and thinking, fuck, this guy's too hot to NOT to upload live images and here I...

Your absolutely right. Sometimes burning every bridge behind you is the only way to move forward. We can't be who we were before, and any attempts to do so usually end up impressing no one, least of all ourselves.

Take that Clash album and listen to the whole thing. Then listen to it again. Then again if necessary. The answers will come. They are around us at all times, just waiting.

Go ahead and take a look at my journal. It's full of sound and fury and signifies almost nothing.
