ah, it has been a while... i promise not to be such a busy stranger anymore.

my mestizo virgin mary came to visit me all the way from california... i took her to see the blood brothers. i guided her through every record store in town. i showed her to the hole in the rock... we dug all the statuary, we rebuilt the ruins, we...

i don't think i'm that smart, in fact, i don't even know how people measure intelligence. i do know that i remember a lot of things and people better than most.

i can recall all kinds of strange memories, of getting punished, of first crushes, of embarassment, of trophies and failed tests, of the spark that set me off.

i remember friends that probably won't...

on sunday my family had a big pre-xmas party, where everyone was invited, even the people the more closer knit relatives never associate with. the only people who weren't there were either dead or in arizona (me and my cousin). at some point in the evening, as my father was walking out of the garage where everyone was drinking he bumped into one of my...

a letter to d.

why do you keep coming by my office, ass shakin', eyes to the floor? first thing this morning after vitamin c you came and saw me, looking for my approval... "why are you dressed like that?" i asked... "'cause it was the only thing clean," you answered with hesitation. bullshit... you said the new guy was good looking, i saw the...

i guess it's been a while, out of the loop and out of touch...

i went back to california for thanksgiving, spending a week with my folks, listening to my mom cry, trying to talk to my dad through his alcohol fueled haze, hanging out with relatives and spending a lot of time with a girl i'd like to marry someday.

my dad was as...

The girl you'd like to marry - what's stopping you?

Don't worry, Bobby, I know what's stopping you. At least, inasmuch as I can know anything about you, I know. That means I think I know, and will stand by my opinion until proven wrong.

In other news, my dad came into town from out of town (funny how that works, eh?), so almost the same thing. There's not a lot of drinking (though his breath does always smell slightly of some alcoholic beverage or another), but there's a lot of lying and a lot of narcissism; he has to amuse everyone he meets with his charm and wit, and at the same time tell us all about how much he misses what he's left behind. Fucker.

So, chin-up and cheerio, old boy. It'll all be better in the morning, they say.

So you start a action figure group, than just completely ignore it? Tell me I didn't just wate my group joining virginity.

i finally finished my dad's dragon tattoo... there is an image of the artwork in with the rest of my photos if anyone would like to see it.

he asked me to do it two months ago... dad's still living out his adolescent fantasies, still trying to stay young despite his fifty-six years (he had his eyes done last week without telling anyone). he already...

i was listening to the cd maylanie burned for me friday night, wondering why i never got into blonde redhead or modest mouse, not to mention melt banana... honestly it's kind of creepy how well her musical taste compliments mine... if there was ever a situation where both of our music collections were mixed together, it would be the most varied record collection in the...

You want me to send you some cookies? I'm apparently sending them to someone else, too, and would be willing to make a double batch.

sometimes i have trouble figuring out where i end and the world begins. most days i'd rather not attempt to smile and take part in everyone's little game, the refusal then acceptance, the feigned interest, a ritualistic act for no reason other than routine. everything is less shiny than it used to be, tarnished, the strings pulled taut, their hooks digging in.

why bother? what's...

It's ridiculous when you feel so hopeless that you say "given up" because really what does it mean. Will the earth open up and swallow you, digest you and shit you out into the universe? As cool as that would be I think not. There have been countless times in this life of mine that I have heard myself say " I give up" and almost crossed the line of insanity. My own laughter caused by the confusion of why I could feel this so strongly and if I knew nothing else I knew I wanted to give up. ' You give up what' I ask myself. What difference does it make to the world. It only makes a difference to you. If you choose to continue the battle of self, if you choose to fight for yourself, or you choose to sit back and watch the motion of the world with no reaction and no impact.
My rambling might be needless or unwanted... in fact, I'm sure it is. I'm sure you prefer to be left alone, with yourself. robot

i hope you just didn't call me a robot.

i got whistled at the other day, and shit like that never happens to me.

i've been strangely confident the last few days, and i think it's because of the catcalls i got from some drunken ladies the other night... this feeling is strange and unusual, seducing me and making me sick. i'm diving headfirst now, remembering my secret powers. who knew that the ultimate...

she bled vanilla custard at our union, and i was spent, wondering not if she came, but why i was even there... she's a nice enough girl, not entirely crazy, but there is something completely errant about her ways.

she's contradictory and unassuming... she knows not of my secret life, but i'm not one to openly offer any information. she's stylish, sure... you would think...

i'm smart but she's smarter, a voice remembered, looking for a chance to run away. i'm stumbling backward through my 20s, tripping over tentacles, remebering to forget, getting by, and she's playing guitar, writing poems about patricide, going to europe without me.

i almost didn't remember, that is to say i forgot, i forgot how good she looked in her neckties, how dark her mestizo...

The blank comment's just there because I don't necessarily agree with the people who posted before me, but I don't know what the right answer is. It's almost never a good idea to rewind to the past; but that's probably just my experience talking.

NO more timing each tear that falls from my eye ..I'm not hiding the remedy to cure this old heart of mine
I can dream about you , if i can't hold you tonight
I can dream about you , you know how to hold me just right

Bobby...pasts aren't always better left behind. Memories can help to create the best dreams. And dreams can be inspiration for life.

i saw beauty crushed last night, dragged through broken glass, destroyed by the deadly velocity of her chosen lifestyle.

she used to be such a pretty girl, bee-yoo-tee-full, a dead-ringer for kate from drew carey, only spunkier, more street... when i first met her she was still a virgin, the kind of girl that you knew someone was just gonna snatch up. she was at...

Cool. I have heard of them, just not listened to them. Rancid has moved quite a bit sense that album. The new one, is very different. I am still not sure about it. I am a die hard fan, too.

I, for one, am moved by your journal entry. Your metaphors are stunning in their simplicity. I'm sad that this exists, but happy someone has the skill to write so well about it.

Keep it up, Bobby.
