my world is made of cables and wires.
power cords, extension cords, phone cords, power strips, speaker wire, antenna wires, firewires, XLR's, RCA's, 1/4"s, coaxial cables, DSL cables, 8-line cable snakes, wall-warts with various weird adaptors on them, christmas lights, and more and more and more
two-prong - three-prong - XLR to TRS - signal amplifiers - adaptors - convertors

it seems that my old resume just wasn't all that great. i thought, at the time that i made it, that it was just fine. i knew that i could have said more about the restaurants i'd worked at and the things i accomplished there, but i thought that it'd be better to save that for the interviews. i mean, of course i'd get the...

haha that WOULD be a great fortune cookie
juliana:
You're wrong about the cookies.
Wrong, wrong, WRONG, i tell you!
Wrong, wrong, WRONG, i tell you!
best lyrics i'll hear this week:
yes, and the morning has me looking in your eyes
and seeing mine
warning me
to read the signs more carefully
(a cookie* for the first person who can tell me who wrote that.)

oh, yeah, that theory of mine is a "theory" in the same way Einstein's theory of relativity is just a "theory."
january is really shifting it, isn't it? fucking flying by... and not nearly as much fun as last month...
not that december was a barrel of laughs or anything, but at least there were some highs and lows - this month is like pink noise; it just sits there, right in the center, droning away.
yeah, so i'm rambling.

I accept your challenge.
I've never heard the expression "pink noise." weird.
January has been rocking. A little too rocking. I think it's time to slow it down some.

my "what gets me hot" theory? I don't remember that 
the only girl i've ever loved was born with roses in her eyes
but then they buried her alive
one evening, 1945
with just her sister at her side
and only weeks before the guns
all came and rained on everyone
now she's a little boy in Spain
playing pianos filled with flames
on empty rings around the sun
all sing to say my dream...

I've never seen Bright Eyes before in concert: though I'm hella excited, the concert isn't until Feb and I'm already squealing with glee 
But there definitely won't be any fainting involved. Probably not. maybe not. ok, maybe just a little.

would you know where i can purchase a theremin?
_____________________________________
ha. you wouldn't believe it: there was a theremin emergency with a co-worker today. he, like, really needed a replacement one and put me in charge of finding one (because i'm crafty like that). we went with a new moog model. thanks for the quick support though! is the pizza place that opened where univibe used to be any good? or do they sell, in the spirit of univibe, very expensive slices?
also: i just assumed everyone associated jeff mangum with big cozy sweaters. however, a google search for some right now didn't turn up anything. but where do you stand on Olivia Tremor Control? rather, i should ask if you smoke weed and deduce my answer thusly.

a passing stranger on the street breezes by me. i breathe in the scent that you used to wear, and am instantly lost in her wake (and if you ever wondered why they call it that, it's because of how everything in your world behaves as if it has indeed been plunged into the sea - your arms swing more slowly, your chest labours against...

just when i thought that things would be winding down, they get busier. the last 6 weeks of my life have been like one long listen to Bolero. it just gets more and more intense, building up and building up into a hectic, frenzied climax -- which i'd be comparing to really hot sex (as per usual) if it wasn't for how not-hot...

today is a crazy, strange, and wonderful day:
1) my items from Austin arrived at eight this morning - i am now one mixing console and one gorgeous 1/2" 8-track tape machine, and a whole bundle of cables richer!

january 11th is a sunday. when will you be free that day?
papawheelie:
word. so your bike is running! awesome. which cafe offered you a job? does their dishwasher work?
is it just me, or is SG slowly being taken over by canadian women?
...not that i'm complaining, mind you. some of my favorite SG's are canadian, and i'd sure as hell rather live by their country's laws than my own, most times.
what i think i'm most envious of is the sense of pride, quiet as it may be, in where they come from....

There's so much to be ashamed of in being American. I tell myself all the time I'm going to move to Canada, but with my money and job situation it's not practical.

today is my first day off in almost two weeks, and even though i have a ton of things to do here at the house, it's so incredibly relaxing to not have to work.

There are few times in one's life that being Negative is actually a good thing.
my weekend:
Friday: 4pm-1am @ A Cote
Saturday: 6pm - 11pm @ Rudy's

my situation:
due to my insane work schedule and my lover's full and busy life, this last week has been seriously lacking in the lascivious/devious department.

y.v.
I would have to say that is generally sound advice, and generally how I deal with things. But yesterday the final nail in the coffin of the best relationship of my life with the boy I'm still in love with was driven in deep. He and my hopes are moving to Utah in less than 2 weeks, and there is no way to lighten up over that, unfortunately.
Thanks, though.
