i'm sad. today was Aiki's last set. she was one of the reasons i ever joined this site, let alone became a SG. she's such a rad, strong awesome punk girl. and beautiful to boot. someone left a comment on her journal that said, 'it's weird everyone's leaving.' is everyone leaving? who else left, or is leaving that i didn't know about? i'm not leaving....

sorry it's been a while since i've updated...it's been a busy time for me. last night, after inventory at work, i went straight downtown and we played our first show with our temp drummer. i have to say it went really well. there weren't a whole lot of people there, but still, it was fun. it really made me excited to go on tour again....

ahhh another week's over...guess what? i have 2 cavities! fuck! well, i made it 26 years without one. now, bam! 2! what the fuck? the worst part is that i can't even do anything about 'em until i get back from tour at the end of april, because i can't affford it. even with insurance it's expensive to a broke-ass like me. but luckily, they're...

Hey! be sure to check out my old buddies The Starvations at SXSW. You heard of 'em?
oak:
good stuff
when i lived down there, i always left town for dallas during sxsw (same with halloween, actually)
but now i'd probably stick around to see what was happening.
i guess i'm getting old and boring?

I have the same infatuation with my clothes at laundromats. Although I'm one of those people that sits there and maniacally watches the other laundry-goers so I can prepare to run over to the dryers before anyone else can get them. The dryers have to be all in a row you know...you cant have your clothes in dryers that are separated
gamma:
Although in my end of the world...laundromats are a haven for the undesireables. I hope they are much better in Texas
came home early from work today cuz i have a toofache. couldn't get into the dentist today, so i have an appointment tomorrow, and i'm scared shitless. i've never had a cavity before, and all other dental work has been basically minor. i'm just scared the doctor's gonna find like 20 cavities. rrrrrrrrrrmmmmmm, i have nightmares about teeth falling out and things like this. i...

yikes. but you will feel so much better after it gets all fixed up. good luck with the chompers.

I had a toothache once. I was too young to get pills though.
A friend of mine has a recurring dream where his teeth fall out and he puts them in his pocket. He has had this dream since the early 90's.
You guys are fucking wierd.

heyyyy...alright, time for an update....things are better. we don't have a new drummer yet, but our old drummer is willing to play the shows we have booked so far, which is really good. and we have a couple of options as far as tour goes. so things could be worse. and on a personal level, i think we've all had time to simmer down, think...

ugh...i've been putting off writing this journal for a few days, because there are so many emotions involved in it, i can't really express them all. but i guess the point of having a journal on here is to reveal what's going on in my life-the good and bad, the ugly as well as the pretty. so here goes. on wednesday night, our drummer quit...

Hey, if you come out to L.A. or orange county I promise i will see you play. Hell, if you come down, you can play on my radio show (depending what time slot I'll be at whenever that happens). If you have a promo, i would love to play it on trash-o-matic. If the Bobbyteens(/Trashwomen) like you, I'm sure you will fit in well on trash-o-matic. I wish you luck in recovering from your bands recent loss. It is a setback, but depending on who you get to take over, you could end up with an even better dynamic.
As for Cometbus being in my art section. have you ever seen the artwork on the old crimpshrine albums? or the pinhead gunpowder albums? Just like with his writing his art has a very distinct look to it. Very neat stuff.

hey there
I just mailed a copy of The Life Aquatic to the Winks address for you. I put in a few other movies too. I forget which.
My boss is a member of the academy and we get all the movies up for Oscar consideration on DVD. So I burned whatever wasn't protected.

oh yeah, T-Mobile can be a real bitch sometimes too... You should really post some MP3's of The Winks, I searched all over the place this morning and couldn't find a damn thing...
so, no new phone for Kitty it seems. i went to the store today, and the cheapest camera phone i could get WITH my discount was $120, and it looked kinda ghetto. the ones that i was really interested in woulda cost me $220, and that's just more than i wanted to spend. Plus, i'd have to renew my contract, and if i wanted to...

Ok, a pregnant dream is usually symbolic of a new project or idea that you have concived that is gestating and growing inside you. Well, that's what they say any way. You may have told someone or serveral people of an idea that has yet to begin hence the excitement of the baby shower. Could it be about that new phone?
Oh well, something will happen. I need a new phone myself but still have 8 months on my plan then I think I may switch companies.
