I spent the whole weekend seeing people I haven't seen in a long time and watching an old friend get married. The pastor kept calling her by the wrong name, which I might have been offended by. She seemed to take it in stride, however, and she looked gorgeous.

The humidity is making it increasingly difficult to function.
But on the upside, I have had lots of time inside to practice the piano.

The piano is so lovely. I'm always a sucker for a good piano song.

I really dig the new profile pic.
Don't you hate when you post without checking and find a stupid spelling error later? I know I do. I also just noticed that I've had "Delirium" spelled wrong in my profile for awhile, which makes me feel a fool.
Who feels like crap when they spend too much time alone? I need me some alone time more than the next guy, but when it...

I like the alone time, but not for longer than a month or so. After that, the feral Need to be around people clicks on and I go out with people.

Your mom doesn't care if you stink.
I should start exercising again. I feel a bit doughy, and my back is hurting.
My head hurts every day because of this humidity, and it's hard on my bad knee too. To remedy this, I'm drinking far too much beer, which in turn, doesn't help with this doughy feeling.

Seems like quite the vicious cycle. Why'd you stop exercising?
lillithvain:
Thanks for the nice comment that you left on my set today. 
Can I ask a question? What makes everyone get out of bed in the morning and move around and talk? How do you do it?
doghouse_reilly:
Sometimes, when no reason seems sufficient, I do it solely to spite the fuckers.
silverrevolver:
When life is good the desire for more life wakes me up. When life is bad, the thought that without the pain, without the suffering the moments of rapture would be impossible and unknowable.

old profile pics
I haven't been updating because I'm depressed. I'm just now admitting to myself the way it is -- that I haven't been this bad for awhile now. I haven't updated because no one wants to hear that. I should find a way out.
I have a new profile pic. How do you like it? No, I don't really smoke.
I put all my past avatars...

Why are you depressed?
I'm learning that happieness more a state of mind then a result of outside forces.
I e-mailed you a bit of a manuscript that I've been working on. I would love your thoughts..

Sometimes I get so depressed I can't type. It's probably times like that when I should be typing the most. Life is funny that way.
Hello, Insomnia. I wondered where you'd gone.
greyandblack:
I'm also a memeber of that club.
cassie11:
I hate imsomnia and it seems i always get it when i dont need it the most...im sorry its sucks big ones...but its a good thing u have SG to pass time thats for sure 
Hello summer, I feel ugly and stupid and it's far too hot here. Sweating bullets till the sunscreen melts off and the shades stick to my nose. Makeup useless, nice clothes useless. Just run in and hide until autumn. Maybe you'll get something done when everything is orange and old and dying. Maybe the hoary calm of winter will help you progress, but months ago...

kundalini:
I've often pondered that same question.
Goodness I miss my puppy. My mom's watching him for two weeks while my landlord is in town. I guess that means I'm getting attached.
I'm this close to being finished with something, and this close to beginning something new.
I start my last class of college on Friday.

That's exactly how I am. I am a wonderful person to my friends and most of the time to my family, but to a boyfriend, I am vicious and cruel. I think it might be just because I can be, because I trust them to show that side to, but it isn't really fair to them at all.
venice:
Thank you.
The pictures were taken at the Oregon Coast, and in Scotland, and out my window at my old house, and in the band room at my high school. Just several random pictures from that basic time period.

Feeling sad today, but it's a comfy sadness. Sometimes you just have to.

there's a word for that, i just can't think of it right now. i shall invent one: mondiss.
kalidoom:
I HATE it. I made an ass load of money on Saturday, but I really just couldn't drag myself in there again. Something about the atmosphere is fucked in there, I just can't quite put my finger on it. I have to go in again tonight, though. All of my stuff is there. I think my shift started at 11 a.m. today....oops.
Lolita is taking me forever to read because I keep re-reading and re-reading. The fun Nobokov seems to be having in the melifluous prose makes every sentence delectable. How has everyone not read this book?
I don't think it can work as a movie. The language itself is so seductive. The most mundane descriptions become somehow sexy because the rhythm and flow of the words...

I got a job as a file clerk at a law firm that a friend of a friend works at as a paralegal. I'm really excited about it, because it's actually the perfect job for me.
I think it has been too long since I read that book to be able to have coherent thoughts on it. Which is unfortunate... Maybe I should read it again.

kundalini:
I can't say for certain, I wasn't around back then, but thinking of the publishing industry in specific rather than American culture in general, I think that the major houses were a lot more daring with the materia they would print back then. These days, I think the fear of hysterical backlash from bible-toting fundamentalists considerably shortens the list of topics that a company may sink money into.
Perhaps it is the culture of blame that has changed in society since the 50's. I can imagine Lolita published and only stirring up a small cloud of conservative sentiment over its material. I also imagine that these days, a lot of King James Version quoting middle Americans would blame it for the teen pregnancies at the local high school, as well as the downfall of morality in general and Janet's half-time show nipple extravaganza.
Hmmm, that leads me to another thought. Lolita isn't on a lot of banned book lists. At least not near the tops of them - but then I don't of a single high school teacher who wouild touch that book at school. Usually those lists are generated by parents who are upset over what teachers are assigning as reading material. Honestly, the book hardly comes up at all in discussion outside of university circles.
Sorry for this ramble, I just got on a roll.
