Sitting here at 11:22 watching Suicide Girls the First Tour; blogging; and thinking again about how weird life is. Thank God for distractions I guess. My mother passed away on Monday night, with my sisters and I around her. The cause was Alzheimer's. And here I am almost a week later, posting on my little blog, in my little room in Santa Rosa. The street...

Please accept my sincere condolences.

I'm sorry for your loss. Sometimes going forward is all we've got.
What is it about dreams? I finally feel that I'm getting happy again; but I keep having vivid dreams of my ex. And this has only been the last few weeks that this has happened! Is my sadness moving to my subconscious, or what? I don't undersand it; and I wish the dreams would stop.
I need new people to dream about, I guess. A...

Ugh, I stil have frequent dreams of my ex, 5 years after that. But here's some info from my favorite dream dictionary/site, the only one that I don't think is stupid: http://dreamdoctor.com/definitions/ex-lover.html?phpMyAdmin=29c2328cc73b8ed64ba7f78bbbec0416
I finally saw the Church a couple of days ago. They've been a favorite band of mine since high school, with dreamy psychedelia and moody pop songs that appeal to me like a muthafucka. I've always had the image of them as somewhat dour, but they were yucking it up on stage, amusing themselves and the audience. I think they've reached that stage where they...

I think I'm gonna go to Vegas for a few days next month. Any recommendations, people? I'm leaning towards the Mirage, but I'm totally undecided as of yet. I'm not a big gambler, I just want to walk around in a self-indulgent adult fairyland for a few days, and forget about sad stuff. Oh, and I'll be alone, if that makes a difference. I'm thinking:...

Well, I DO read... but unfortunately I've never been to Vegas and couldn't begin to advise--sorry!

I was only in Vegas for a few hours once, passing through to another city (we had thought we might stay the night in Vegas but the hotels were way too expensive -- even Yosef's Rooms By The Hour was going to run $80.) Mostly I recall how crazy-aggressive the guys were, and the cockroaches, and how much food cost. I might be cheaper to go gamble and utilize the Free Buffets casinos tend to have as a motivator, than to try to just pay for food.
I am listening to Blondie's Parallel Lines for the first time ever. It is good, more rocking than I ever thought it would be. I love "Hanging on the Telephone" and of course, "Heart of Glass". Goddamn, there is a lot of good music out there. Anyone ever heard of the Comsat Angels? That is prime 80s wonderfulness that no one in America ever mentions.

Is that your reaction to the Comsat Angels album cover? It would seem appropriate, if so. I do read that picture as modern cityscape seen as forbidden alien landscape. Not a person to be seen, no warmth.
Feeling very Koyaanisqatsi. It only misses a pair of golden arches.
The again, perhaps your Fear Button got stuck.

This struck me as funny. So I'm at the theatre, watching this grim black-and-white film, The White Ribbon. There's a scene where a deeply religious father is telling his son that he reminds him of another boy he's heard about, a boy who died. The father then goes on to describe the symptoms of the boy who died, what he was like before he passed...

baaahahahaha! I know, lol. She turned 3, so in "dog years" that would have been her 21st b-day. I think we all had the same face as her the day after our 21st, HAHAH!

um... pretty sure I posted that comment under my own blog responding to your comment, but for some reason it's here... 
Oh how much difference ONE conversation can make! From feeling like utter shit and no one cares, to being totally calm and feeling that there's a future... One friend or family member can make such a difference. Damn, that's a good thing to remember.
What's so strange is that we can forget, can lose perspective on our lives so easily without someone to set us...

How long can you be the King of Weirdos now that you've tapped into the MANOR? 
This is "Restaurant Week" in Sonoma County, so I went out to some Puerto Rican place in Rosa. Three-course meal, relatively cheap, real good. (El Coqui, anyone?) The simple pleasures... I was sitting at the bar in this place, reading the paper and waiting for my food, and I reflected on how fortunate I was.
Also, today was beautiful, a good day to have off....

It's been six months since breaking up with J. Or about that long. It's hard to believe that it's somehow okay, somehow possible to feel pain for this long. But I guess it can go on longer, much longer, or so I've heard. Maybe it shows, in some sort of fucked up way, just how much you loved that person. I can't see what good...
