i saw the sun rise and set twice in one day. drank too much coffee. and i'm pissed off that i can't smoke in the house anymore. fucking everyone has stayed the same- seems like only i have changed. when i sit in my booth, drinking coffee with friends, it feels like i never left at all. in my head, i'm screaming. things they'd probably...

so japan is as lovely as i'd imagined. i surely never thought i'd feel at home in a karaoke bar...but the people have made me feel welcome. actually, everywhere i've gone i've only run into welcoming people (except for this old man with a cane, but that's another story . all i can say right now is that i will be somewhere completely different in...

i'm feeling thoughful, i guess you could say. for months i've been wondering about fate and reason. i wonder if things actually do happen for a reason, and, if so, why? i've found myself leaning towards the idea that destiny exists.... and then we occasionally get kicked in the ass by a change. our world turns upside down. this world in which we thought was...

too much coffee and cigarettes once again....another night of waffle house mischief with my sexy friends. i hate leaving all these wonderful people behind. and i've been taking way too many of my anxiety pills lately to keep from freaking out about all the chaos in these last days before the move. my main concern is that i can't bring all 200 or more of...

i'm back...someone must really want in my pants to have reactivated me. i just added some new photos, since all the photos on here were from like 2005 or so. in two weeks i'm moving to japan...which is crazy and exciting and i don't quite know what to do with myself. i'll be there for at least three years. i'm planning on spending most of...

Jack Daniels-drinking writer/musician/photog who is moving to Japan, that land that so fascinates and intimidates me...Hello! You are a woman after my own heart. Thanks for adding me!
I went to bed as the sun was rising, and I woke up at sunset. It was the strangest thing! I don't know that I've done that before, or actually noticed. I love sunsets, the warm undertones of purple and orange red and yellow. As the sun was setting I went to walk my dog in the front yard and noticed something in the road.... Read More
Wow....I almost cried here at work reading that....I'm a huge animal lover and I know if I would have saw something like that I would have had nightmares of the cruelty and pain for a week. What can I say....you're an incredible person....
This is so heartbreaking yet so profound. I am so glad that poor little kitten died in loving hands, after being victimized by a car. You are so brave.
People, not all animals die when they're hit by a car. If you hit something, have the decency to stop! Pay attention when you drive. I try to be careful and watch the road, even when I have some huge SUV closing in on my ass, because I know I could cause something like this to happen...
shifted senses. always shifting. and it rains so hard here. i think i thought i saw someone who cared but i knew i'd know he wasn't ever there. i don't know what day it is, what month, what hour....it all runs together in sameness united and coming undone. yet i don't remember what i did yesterday, today, last month, tonight. i remember there was rain...

i'm thinking in purple today. lilacs and lavender and grays. sleeping somewhere between 3 and 13 hours a day. i cut my own hair from time to time. but i didn't today. i'm not talking just cutting bangs either, i mean full fledged holding hair in the back up and snipping. i find it liberating and i can't argue with the hairdresser for doing a...

oh opal you make my knees weak!! and boys, of course I always wear boyshorts or hipsters because you know how great they look on my ass. Next time we all hang out you know I'll give you a peek
i have a cold or sinus infection or something. don't you hate it when you are all stuffy and your head feels like it is going to implode? i actually got out of the house this weekend! I went to the new Target and got lost for a few hours. spent way too much money on boxer brief panties and vneck tees. I really wish... Read More
I have the same sleeping issues. I've lived with it all my life and at times it's been hard to live a "normal" life and maintain a "normal" schedule. I jsut found a way to make it work and so thats been very nice. I work 12 hour shifts(7p-7a) and go to school after getting off of work. Now I'm awake but being productive and exhausting myself so I can get a good sleep. It feels good I feel functional now. Before I always felt like I was living in a wierd fog. Sorry about rambling on for a bit
p.s. i think you are amazingly beautiful. I read your journals sometimes and feel like your thoughts are similar to some of my thoughts and perceptions.
since i've received some requests for a new blog, here you go children of the night. the days become the night and the separation more and more slight. my bed is the place of unrest for rest is not my friend. i wish for things like new pens to write in my journal and new books to read and constantly decorate and redecorate my room....

read marilynne robinson's "Housekeeping." One of the most astonishingly well-written and poetic novels ever written. On my Top 10 novels (or even books) to read before you die.
Which you ARE NOT going to do anytime soon.
Wish we could talk sometime. You sound like you need a friend something fierce.
