Anyway, yes Mr. NutSwineSelf-HousedReptile is still having his party on the 27th. That's the weekend after this one. So two weeks from this past Saturday. You still free?

Sonofabitch. That is mondo suckage there. See? 
Mondo suckage face.
Saucy email? It's 11:08pm. I don't do saucy at 11:08pm on a weeknight.
Wait a minute, 11:08?! Shit, I should've been in bed two hours ago. Fudge.
Guess I'd better write that email then.
I feel like I'm in 7th grade, myself.

cool im sure you will love it.. i have a digital dslr and i cant imagine going back to point and shoot after it.. only downside is with a lens, flash, camera, batteries...etc it weighs like 5lbs... but it takes amazing pics... iv played with the 10d before but never the digital rebal.. i actualy wrote a review of both thats in the photography group here.
the digital rebal being $500 less though makes it a really tempting buy espesialy if you have canon glass already.. jsut be carefull with all the <$3000 dslr cameras they built in some lens restrictions to force people to buy new lens which really sucks... one of my old nikon lens wouldent work on my new camera just because it was manual focus so i had to buy a new one thats identical except its AF.
if you want we should go shoot together sometime.. im sure there are great areas around where you live with the water and all

Listen to Les, drag your punk ass out here. We've actually been having great weather out here this week, tons of sun.
I know you dig the wine, and my co-worker has a vinyard up here that makes the best pinot noir I've ever tasted.

Enough negativity.
Though exploited, I'm thankful to be employed at all.
I always used to think that depressed economic and political times brought upon positive and vast social changes and surges in the arts. Why doesn't it seem like this has happened for this bout of social depression? Are we in the midst of it? Is this a sign that the worst is yet to...

Hey Mr. Introspective !!!
Yup...I been a very busy boy in this last week or tow and it's gonna stay that way for a while I think.
I did a live recording of my ex-girlfriend last night. This meant dismantling my home computer and renting extra gear so I was jumping through hoops this weekend. Now I've gotta start returning gear! All in a days work. I had to figure out a way to record a decent acoustic guitar sound without a lotta vocal bleed for someone not used to staying still for a guitar mic. I ended up mounting a lav mic inside the guitar and it worked great!
...and a happily geeky morning to you too!!!

yes maybe i will take your advice and get PHOTOSHOP...but i would rather that you come by and resize them for me...i would like to show you some surprises....have you ever even been to RI? Saying I am the best thing about it is kinda premature, dont you think? 
but i bet kissing me would be the best thing about RI!

I know this is a recurring theme in my journal as of late, but I've been feeling old lately.

Thanks for that comment mate. It's nice to know that my family's legacy for writing has adapted to the electronic age. Funnily enough it's one of his few poems he wrote in was can be described as 'English'. More often than not he used a Lancashire dialect even I have difficulty understanding. He wasn't too shabby at emotive writing for a master - baker's understudy
Interesting historical note regarding that poem. He was ex-communicated from the Catholic church for writing it and alledgedly questioning the 'Will of God', one of only three people in the 1900's to have that dubious honour!
I reckon you move here, mate. Plenty of quiet bars full of [psuedo] intellectual types. v78 @_@

I"m much better now, thanks. Fever's gone, just the residual sniffles.
I think I killed it with some homemade tomato soup and lots echinacea of tea.
Ahhhhh weekend. What are you doing this weekend?

I am so dumb, I had to read your message twice because the Shrub comment stumped me...OMG
Well, I've finally succumbed. The flu has overtaken my body, but not my soul!!

streiber makes me a bit paranoid sometimes when i read him too much. when i got out on camping trips with my telescope , i tend to overreact to ordinary celestial things.
Lately I've been feeling like such an adult. I went house-shopping today. Not a whole lot is in my price range, but as I've said before in this journal, paying rent is such a fucking waste of money. I might as well live at home with the parents and buy pot and guitars with it, just like when I was 22.

Steal me that nudie pic from the Shining, I need it to go along with my black panther fuzzy poster motif 
Yesh, much love is abound today.
Today is a Sigur Ros day.
A detached, surreal swirl of white
enjoyed from behind crystal windows, beside a toasty hearth.
Watching the sun fall through cracks in the horizon
and a kaleidescope of stars manifests discreetly while I anticipate spring in some distant corner of my mind.

This is me giving a damn about types of conventional poetry. 
See? I care a lot about properly identifying the types of conventional poetry. I am grateful you pointed that out though; learn something new everyday.
Of course I think I just forgot how to adjust my voltage regulator, but that's why I have books!

MORE FUCKING SNOW!!!!!
Ok, I won't kill myself like I promised. I know some of you are disappointed. I will, however, take a gigantic virtual dump on the fucking mitten on which I live, then cleanse my ass in the bidet to either side of it. Cold bidet, yes, which might be why I'm so goddam bitter.
That and the goddam drummer of my band...
