Tonight a group of friends and I are off the the Metro to see the Polkaholics --a punk/polka band that sounds a lot like the Dead Milkmen. (And ladies, take note: I actually can polka.) But first, we're hitting the Brauhaus for some spaetzle, sauerbraten, bratwurst and other assorted Germanic-type food. I suspect numerous Old Styles will flow down my gullet in the process. After,...

I need a new project, something really grand. Something I have to really lay it on the line for. Cause right now, i'm a little bored. But just at the moment, it's too late, too tired, brain too heavy. That's it for now kids. I'll leave you, howeveer, with 3 random quotes of the day...

OK, I'm tired of looking at my old journal entry, but my mind is blank at the moment. Consider this sort of a place-holder entry until I get the neurons firing properly again. I'm going to a "naughty cheese party" on Saturday--perhaps that will perk me up.
One thought... if I could be anywhere right now, it'd be at the wheel of my old 72'...

'a duchampian romp, even' wasn't bad. i went with a group of art fag friends like myself, who all loved it. of course me, being the most knowledgeable on the dude (i did have a crush on him for about 5 years) thought it didnt do him justice.
we walked into the theatre to find two guys sitting at a small table playinng chess...naked.
when they got to the part about duchamp losing his virginity, one of the guys probed a woman in the audience about her experience with the same. when he asked her where the guy was now, she said 'deceased' i give him credit for saving a potentially awkward moment.
lots of planned randomness and mayhem
guys in skirt and makeup
at the end there was a guy lying in the anteroom uner a large glass pane. i placed a flier in his open hand and called it performance art. everyone thought it was funny. it was a classic moment. just ask my friends

I wish I knew whether to:
1) Stay in Chicago or move back to Portland...
2) Serve red or white with salmon...
3) Concentrate on my creative endeavors or just chuck it and open a bar...
4) Seek out a serious GF or live a life of libertine indulgence...
5) Keep my cushy day job or quit and be a bohemian again...
6) Shit or...

I lived in downtown for the most part-10th ave by Safeway/PSU and 13th by PSU and the entrace to 26(the beverton freeway I think it was 26...) Most everyone I know lives in SE-Hawthorne etc-anyway yeah, I miss PDX but I love Minneapolis as well -just real cold but I'm adjusting *checking wether cast in taskbar noting that it's 2 deg.* as for the Tat pict. I have attemped to srink it so it will fit in the profile requirements but it gets to distorted(using paint). I have photoshop but no idea how to use it-you should gimme a tip.
Sometimes it surprises me that I'm consistently happy these days. Not so long ago, things were different. Back when I was depressed, during my dark half-decade of the soul, I could barely remember what happy was. The possibility of sustaining it for longer than a night seemed remote. And hell, it made sense. Despair itself was somehow a comfort--it seemed the only logical reaction to...

The great and terrible eyes say:
"Love is a lie you tell yourself about someone else who doesn't exist."
Happy Valentine's Day! (And all due credit to Lacan fo the somewhat mangled quote.)
The Eyes are currently reading: the inner grooves of your soul
The Eyes are currently listening to: Cupid's Trick by Elliott Smith

Eyes don't listen, silly!
I think Lacan is on the right track. Bastard.
Does Edith Frost ever play around here? I've been looking, but haven't seen anything...

Party sized. Tee hee. That makes me giggle.

I'll get a hold of you soon so we can visit the Hungry Brain again or check out a play.

OK, some people seem to be creeped out by the eyes. 
And why? Just because they're allways there, watching you? Because of their relentless, basilisk gaze? 
You hurt the eyes feelings! 
You must love the eyes as they love you. 
Don't be afraid--just look straight at them. That's it, look closely and relax. Now... you are getting very sleeeepy...

We're closing out the "Variations on Bedhead" series with a bit of un-asked-for, likely un-wanted, and completely gratuitous semi-nudity. So drink in the glory that is my barrel-like nekkid torso, folks--that's as much as you get without getting me drunk first. (Although hellcat did have an idea for a SuicideBoys set that so amusing I actually would do it--if she wants to come over and...

We should do some more gaming sometime, too. I've got Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball - ooooooohhhh...
I am so excited to get back to Chicago..I miss it so much...currently my friend is trying to twist my arm to go on a vacation with her..but if i go i have to cut my summer vacation short..I can't afford it all...but she won a costa Rica vacation from B 96..which i think it would be hilarious for like an hour...but then i think the booty music and the loud drunken fratness of the occasion would make me want to drown myself in the ocean..so I think I"m sticking to my Chicago/LA vacation...hmmmm I wonder if there are any good concerts that week...I miss the Chicago music scene.....
