Boredom fuels my appetite for self-destruction. It's a safety mechanism. The feeling of it coming online is never an easy one. Time to ready my cv.

Internal communications is the new inquisition. On-brand. We keep the priests pure in their faith.

I keep testing the contempory conditions against a historical model looking for the most enabling situation for humanity, given what we are.

I need to stop reading the frankfurt school before work. I could stand in traffic, hoping, when I look at it.

Click on the pic, that will lead you to T-shirt Hell (where it came from).

I believe it refers to Karl Marx, and the Russian Revolution.

It has been a while since we've chatted. Both school and health issues are going well, thank you. I miss Toronto, and loved my visit in March. How've you been? smile

Submitted my first abstract to a conference tonight. That's the first truly new thing in six months.

Such things come more rarely now. The taste is exquisite.

Sleep resurrects. All wounds, if not healed, are at least bound.

When I next go mad, remind me to sleep.

I will bite you, so slap me hard and remind me that I asked you to do this.

Kidding. As much as I grumble, I wouldn't give up being a grad student for anything in the world. Except for cake. I like cake quite a bit.

Was just awoken to how distant my last post had drifted from my life. We lost the baby at 22 weeks and cried for days. My love and I are as close as ever, but there is something we do not yet have words for, even now.

Work and school vie for the cognitive hours of my day. I can hear the spine of my...

Wow. Just happened upon this entry you just posted probably 30 seconds before this response, but I am completely saddened to hear about your loss. I won't pretend to know what you're going through, but I do hope things get better (as much as they ever could) very soon.

Things change...

I have a new job. I was accepted into a master's program, we are having a baby.

It's been busy - and wonderful beyond imagining.

spring comes. you can find me happily in the garden.

It's almost 1:30 AM. How the hell is it so fucking hot in Toronto right now? 41C, with the humidex? Ridiculous. My American boyfriend taunts me, so very cleverly asking if my ice hoose (yes, hoose) is melting. What a douche. tongue

Anyway, yes; I'm very excited about the move to NYC, but it's still very daunting and overwhelming. I really CANNOT wait for the move! smile
antimony:
i'm fine. mostly.

i need pictures of your baby, is he/she here yet?

i am the luckiest, happiest boy in the world - i just found my own isolation chamber - a stone cell about 4'x7'in the basement of my house. i can feed power to it so the laptop will run but it is old and can't offer much but wordprocessing and a little low-res photoshopping.

i will not have:
phone
internet
windows
fridges
magazines
chores
intoxicants...

with all due respect to Karol the man, who lived better than most and was, without a doubt, a good person...

Is popefest nearly over? I find this more frustrating than the orgy of grief and historical revisionism over Reagan.

Look, this guy was head of the world's most powerful institution dedicated to a merciful god's unconditional love. An institution with millions of adherents, billions...

i know, i'm getting old right?
antony:
not saying Lloyd and his buddies ain't knowledgable when it comes to DJing goth nights with capital C Conservatism, but when that guy DJs 4 nights a week, his CD collection gets old FAST. There's absolutely no difference between his Darkrave night and his Retro night from his Fet nights. And I'm saying this cos I get a better set from prerecorded material in Pheonix.

I mean, I've been a seasonal "supporter of the Scene" whatever for 3 years and I'm getting sick of Lloyd already. He's a nice guy when you hang out with him after the club scene, but when people sitting on the side are telling you "you think YOU've heard that set already? We've been hearing this collection since 1996!" you wonder why you paid $12.

I like Osaze. He gets the floor packed on Thursday nights in Velvet, deals with requests well and all, but for some reason Lloyd fired him from doing Funhaus without notice.
