Hello everyone.
Thought I'd just update on a whim rather than wait till I felt I had something worth saying. It's not too often these days. Certainly the contents of my personal journal would bore everyone here to death. But I feel like I ought to update once in a while to show that I still exist.
I miss my housemate. He's started seeing someone,...

tryin to get rid of me eh?

You're one of those folks who removed grey people from their friends list, huh? Silly. You know that very few of us can stay away for good. 
Lonely.
I wonder how you looked the day you were erased
To look down at your heart and watch it fade
Did you disappear or were you just misplaced
Left behind with no one else to blame
It's all gone but something lingers on
a place i used to call home
Now me, you, and the ghost
Looking for thing we lost
Laughing at the...

Kinda bittersweet and hwat not I take it.
If you need an ear, you know how to reach me sweets. I need to steal a book form you anyway.

Today I walked into my place of business, called my boss, and offered her my resignation, effective immediately. I have some money saved up, enough to last me a few months until I find something else. Im paranoid, certainly; but Ill be all right. The scarier part for me is that my co-workers, who all hate that place too, remarked to me how it was...

I think you did the right thing. Even if you 'fail' it's better than being afraid of chnaging things and staying miserable.
sassitude:
You are going to be fine. Of course, how would I know? But I think plenty of other businesses would be glad to have a dedicated, hardworking employee such as yourself. I think these days, I'm almost hoping for something really terrible to happen at work so I can justify my quitting.
I'm gonna miss you, Dave.

Warning: for those who've come to expect brevity from me, here I go getting all long-winded again.
Being back here feels like I've stepped into a time warp. Nothing has changed, and there's still nothing to do around town.
I ran into an acquaintance at the airport and we sat together on the plane, talking and enjoying each others' company, and that has been the...

sorry to hear that you are feeling so down. nothing is ever as real as it seems, but even that seems like bullshit philosophy when you're in the middle of it all. it is raining here in portland. i'm back from thailand - victoria and dylan are coming over tonight for curry, and i'm trying to start the new year with no laundry. call when/if you're back in town?

i miss you duder.

You're right. I will not focus on whether or not I should want certain things. Instead, I will accept that I want them, and I want them badly.
I'm letting go now.

Reflections on the Dresden Dolls show three nights past.
Early in the evening my friends, my housemate and I were gathered in front of the Aladdin, when we first saw them. At first there was only one: a girl in a white mannequin outfit and makeup standing quite still by the will call window. A doll. Soon another emerged, wearing a black leather corset and...

I think hun that a lot of it has to do with the fact that when you go see a band or an artist of any type in person... that close.. it makes it real.
Just listening to a CD... the words and music can be inspiriring by themselves but they arn't there to touch.. or to blow kisses at you.
Once you see them face to face they become flesh and blood, and not so diffrent from yourself... you start realizing that maybe your own dreams arn't so far fetched... all it seems to take is a beautiful thought and a little determination.

It was a great show, bittersweet.. but great nonetheless. I'm glad you were there, and sorry I wasn't in many ways. There's no rhyme or reason to my journal. But I think yours would be more readable with clear breaks. It's too much text to read in one block sometimes, and I find myself reading the whole thing over a number of days.
I'm trying to find us a more reliable practice space. I'm also going to get my hands on a new pair of powered PA monitors. Something more durable to move around. We need to play more. Lots more. I have some ideas but I don't think my place is too good to practice at. My neighbors are getting shitty. I don't blame them.
My friend Devo is back in town. We'll all have to meet up to see if there's any cross compatibility. He'd be an awesome addition to our collective, if he was so inclined. Usually him and I play together lots, he can be a bit of a muse for me.
Anyways. I'm rambling. We'll talk more soon. I'm getting out of the funk I've been in and am getting ready to conquer Portland. Your Wicked Little Town dream is within grasp.

I am tired of being sick. In its early stages it is something of a novelty, an excuse for pampering oneself. I have not had to work much, nor have I been able to concentrate on school. However, it has been utterly miserable at the same time and I hardly prefer the free time to the alternative. My productivity has gone down severely, and I...

If you had a button sweet heart you wouldnt be human... and that all by itself would be horribly sad. YOu determination is part of what makes you a great person... you'll get thorugh it.. I'm sure you hear that all the time.
Thank you for the movie.. I had a great time... the color scemes were brillant... I tink that and the water scene were my favroite parts.

How is the Amanda adaptation going?
It's the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream you can shout
It is too late now
Because you have not been paying attention

A rather sane voice amidst the madness comes from SFGate's Mark Morford:
Hello, Uranus? Got Any Room?
Must. Move. Away. Cannot endure more Bush. Soul about to implode. Right? Not so fast

For me to be adequately informed about politics and everything that was going on would take the reading and analyzing of several books, basic courses in government, and a careful and thorough studying of the news. I don't see much point in watching Fox News, but something more along the lines of NPR and Salon (and the Daily Show, of course). Not only do...

I just wish that both sides, especially the Republicans, would just fight cleanly. As Ohio was the main point of contention, it's interesting to note that they used voting machines in Ohio. Voting machines made by Diebold, known Bush supporters who actually threw a campaign party for him four years ago. 
As an acquaintance of mine said yesterday, this election was bought and sold a year and a half ago.

Halloween. I attended my first ever Rocky Horror Picture Show midnight screening last night. The virgin call was fun, but honestly, the people who were there (who were clearly there quite often) reminded me strongly of the folks I used to do theater with back in high school, which is to say they were closely knit, hyper-sexual (one got the feelling of a large incestuous...
