a new year breaks. hmm. this past year has been difficult, the worst so far.

i'm going to take some chances this year and actually try to change the out come, instead of standing still waiting for something to happen. i sometimes find myself too content. i wonder if i'm lazy or just lack ambition? i also wonder if these two are one in the...

I've come to the conclusion that I need MORE sleep.

On average I have been getting between 41/2 to 51/2 hours sleep a night for the past two years. I thought I could actually do this comfortably!?! When I start to throw the odd bender into the mixer, things get really interesting. I think my body wonders when I'll stop? I could probably fix everything...

It's been over a month, what's goin on? I have my suspicions.

If only there was a whip crack emoticon wink

Congrats on the new girl, my friend! And a musician, too! Did we both die? Is this heaven I see around me? tongue
I hope everything goes well, my man!

You'll rest enough when you're dead, as they say. But don't hurt yourself. And yeah; those benders can really make it worse. I get about 51/2 to 7 hours of sleep on average during the week, at that's still not enough after I've been drinking the night before...you're a strong man, Telsis...

I have to apologize. I've been really busy lately and just haven't had the time to update. Hopefully things will be better this week.

The weekend was insane - a very productive Saturday. We have a small out door festival here in Ontario each year called Edgefest. It's mainly comprised of shitty commercial Canadian bands, but also tries to support our indie scene with a...

I just finished watching "The Hours". I cried my fucking eyes out. It truly is a fantastic movie. Just make sure you are on the rails mentally when you watch it. It can be a pretty heavy movie by times.

I hope everyone is having a good day off - I hope everyone had the day off.

I just picked up Mrs Dalloway from the used book bin. Dunno if I'll finish it or not. I might. I've been getting more into listening to music lately than reading or whatever. I've been neglecting the process of putting on a whole album, on my stereo, with headphones. For most of the year, I've been playing files, onthe OC, while SGing, and that ain't the same thing....
I thought Claire Danes was Jesus... in 1994, at least. Little Women (I cried at that) and My So Called Life (moments of brilliance). In that regard, she's better than Keanu...but I'll admit I haven't seen her do diddly in the last few years (Mod Squad??). She's too skinny-angular-faced now, like a lotta actresses...

Physically - Tonight was a very productive night.

Mentally - I feel like I've just taken three giant steps in reverse.

We spent the entire night wiring the remainder our new "jam hall" and laying the last pieces of carpet. Hopefully I can take some pictures and post them soon. We've put a tone of work into it and it's still not completely sound proof,...

you don't ever stop thinking about them.

but it's good to come to terms that some people are no longer your responsibility.

i'm glad that things are going well. great things are great. have a good time tomorrow night and remember to be charming.

I actually did something constructive yesterday afternoon! Sundays are usually left to lying around the house and looking at all house work that has to be done, while I snicker to myself and drink king cans.

While I drank my king cans... I made a wicked new pedal board for all my guitar effects. I use to have a really nice board a few years...

hey, crazy shit is the only language i understand, amigo. biggrin
i'm glad the power out didn't cause you too much strife. if it were me over there i'm sure i'd succumb to some kind of hyperactive madness...well ofcourse the first thing i would probably do is get quite drunk. but i think i'd probably get some kind of full moon-type rush in a situation like that, maybe start a riot? i don't know, but it sure looked crazy over there!
the new pedal board sounds cool- way to be constructive! something i have yet to be this week- i'm very happy to be on a little break- i can't seem to put my guitar down. i kept wanting to play when i was supposed to be studying for finals and then when i studied i'd keep hearing streams of music through my head and it was drivin' me nuts! i gotta be careful though, on the wrists i mean- 'cause if i messed them up again and had to go through another long streak of being physically incapable of playing man would thtat suck!
hope the rest of your week's as good as it started. and have fun reading the Fellowship- that book rocks! wink

Nice work creativio, I've been meaning to make a bookcase for cds for a while but have no tools in this new house. Will go back to my folks and do it I think.

Got a track partly done, but I think I need to spend more time working on the sounds I want to use. Doing stuff on my computer kind of sucks cause what I really want to do is make bleepy noises and put effects on stuff, I'd rather if someone brought in the finished song structure and then let me fuck with it.

*thanks everyone for all the support*

the strangest thing has happened last night! i was forced up really early this morning so that we could be at the studio by 9:00 (which is an hour away) and finish our final mix. overall things ran very smoothly and all is well. when i checked my profile before we left this morning, i had two new friends...

Sounds like someone's changed their username, or else someone's busted into your password. shocked I don't believe in the usernamechange, unless it's like everyone changes their name to "hateful" or "IloveHel" or whatever those were...

well no clue how that happened... but we're both friends with starsandsmokes... so i'll guess you can't be too bad.

yet another day of craziness has ended...

i just got in the door and mom called from the doctors office. i knew something was wrong the last time i saw her, but didn't know what to say about it. the last thing i wanted her to think was she looked tired or run down or just overall unhealthy. she was in tears and didn't seem...

*gives you a good smack* there's nothing self centered about they way you are feeling! when people, especially when it's your mother, get sick it affects the lives of every one who loves them in a big fucking way. it's ok to feel the strain & stress of your situation. don't get down on yourself. i can't see myself maintaining 1/2 as well as you seem to be. if you need some where to vent you know where to find me...Eve L. loves you!

THE GIRL - by telesis or kyle.

I have fell for this poor girl in a way i don't know that i'm ready for. all i really wanted was a good friendship but things have gone far beyond that already. sometimes i begin to wonder if i'm afraid to be left alone for any length of time!?!

hmmm....i'll be quiet.

but only for the moment.
thepromdate:
you sounded upset and didn't want to get on your bad side.

don't question, just enjoy it.

repeat with me, don't question.....i'm being serious here. if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. and that's ok. 'cause you'r enot supposed to marry every cute gir that comes trotting along. but you can have fun in the meantime. and that's ok, too.

goodnight mr. telesis.
