well i crapped out on the apartment... but for a good reason. it was just too much to pay, and though in my neurosis being able to move in immediately is a plus... there just weren't any other pluses to make the higher rent and less desirable location worth my while... plus the landlord stood me up yesterday and left some hispanic painter to show...

Hope the search goes well. We decided against one house because the landlady was creepy and had a stick up her ass. You don't want shitty landlords, period.

Luck in the hunt!

how do you befriend bartenders?

sucks bout the house though, but settling on where you have to spend your existance isnt something that i would recommend. I know too many people who have done it and then wasted a lot of their life money and energy to say fuck it and leave in the end.

it's farther away from school than i wanted, more expensive than i wanted and so on and so forth. BUT. they are letting me move in saturday, which, coincidentally enough is the day i have to be out of the old place.

well. apartment hunting starts anew today... i hate having to live uptown, it is so damned expensive. in comparison, that is.
but as long as i have room for my stereo and my desk... the only two real pieces of space-taking-up shit that i own... all will be well. my goal is to find a place under 400 that's not in the heart of the...

i hope you do better than i did! How hard can it be to find a half decent place that doesn't cost a trillion dollars a year???
Also, i just saw some of your work on your photo page... fuckin rad! i need something to put on my wall when i move in, so get me some info while the canadian dollar is still high!

drinking helps to distract.
but, i keep telling myself, if you let it become a crutch (again, and again...) then you just doom yourself to whatever fate genetics, circumstance, and your pathetic self-control have laid out.
yet.
i can't say no to "one more" drink.
and drunken oblivion is far better than the reality i must wake up to.
and i mutter, bitterly, that god...

i haven't gotten laid in... longer than i can remember. for reasons i can't even start to try to remember. i hate relationships. the commited, long-term kind. that is. i am not cut out for it.
and i am as unhappy as i have ever been. and i want to leave.
but.
i lost my job. am getting kicked out of my apartment this weekend....

In re: i want to leave

Tell me about it; New Orleans is great to visit, now that I don't LIVE there anymore, but I skipped town over a year ago to travel the country far-and-wide and it's done me nothing but good! If you really want to escape NOLA I can give you a few pointers, if you really can't find a way out then maybe I can hook you up somehow, help you out as best I can. I'm in town until tomorrow morning (May 6th) and then I'm taking off for Alaska, but if you want to email me then maybe we can sort something out. Wish you the best!

i am feeling very... unpretty lately. the more i try the worse it is. so its jeans, t-shirts and boots for the rest of me days. *sigh*
so this week has been that.
and fighting with the other.
and losing my job.
and all confidence in myself as an artist being undermined and questioned, just because some board...

my hands are raw from carving all day. taking a much-needed break from the studio... only 72 hours until my review. last night i resigned myself to the fact i was going to fall short. but something won't let me give up entirely...

I don't know that I would say I practice Vodou...I think it is the most pure religion and there are aspects of it that I incorporate into what I consider to be my religion. But I don't read much on it, I just go with the energy I get off of certain aspects. If I were going to subscribe to any organized religion fully, this would be it. I'm about to get the veve for the other Ezili tattoed over my heart shaped implant on my forearm
