shhh dont tell no one i like ani difranco

I listened to some Alix Oslon as a result of this journal. I liked it, but I really didn't feel like she was talking for me, I didn't share her experience but I dug what she was saying and the creative way she was saying it.

I hope that whiskey wasn't too much of a hardship.

And I hope you're having a fucking lovely time in Portugal!

Cool. Mine tends towards electroclash/trip hop in places, but we'll see if you like it.

It's in mp3 format, and there are mp3 playlists in each of the folders.

i'm better now! Yay!! i'm eatin ice cream and drinkin frappuccinos again! Yay!!

here it is!

No, it's near the Fire Station. I popped in there the other night, and it's very laid back, very friendly staff. And they've got old photos of their parents backlist on the walls!

Oh, I'm a terrible singer too.

How are things with you?

pretty much the same. busy, busy, busy. except I'm in the same old job, not a new one.

but things are good. I'm glad to hear the same about you.

hey well it sounds like you know whats the problem, so your a step further to fixing it...

but if you fix it than you wont be you


anywhoo yeah i love fear factory... i like demanufacture the album and obsolete best


ahhhhhh what a day

everything you said, everything, rings oh so true.
let me know how curiosity and cerebral overloading workout for you... coz i'll be just behind you, 'round the corner, on my way to follow.

i still haven't figured out whether i am learning for others (in which case, shouldn't i be doing something with it all?... like your good hound...) or just for me (in which case, should I not ditch the pretence?!).

the grapevine muttered something about you getting the job.
what where who when and how much? and how, also?

(i should go thread hunting but its 4.30 and i'm just home from work and i must away to pleep...)

love to sundry
(and keep on thinking: rather too much than not enough!),

Feeling positive about it, but I've got a stack load of stuff to work through, plus uni work to be doing, and we're going away to the lake district for a few days. Yep, I'm working on answers to those questions, have a good book to use, plus lots of stuff form the careers service. Need to get some more company specific stuff.

Definitely a few drinks after. I'll be out of there by 3ish, but can amuse myself with shopping if you and suicidedoggie aren't around to abit later.

I hope it goes well, we'll have to see how the cookie crumbles during the interview. Actually, no - hopefully it won't crumble - it'll be a synergetic cookie.

Sounds like a good probable plan, we'll see how it works out.

result!!

sounds great! I've a few friends who work in that sector, though more in the mentoring or fundraising areas.... I have great respect though I don't think I could do it

happy for you though

boring? god no!

the mentoring I don't think I'd have the patience or empathy, fundraising I can't do the hard sell

animal testing, yeah it's a tricky one.... I hate the concept and we've all seen the horendous vivisection pictures on those stalls in the street..... but; for some things there is no other way I guess, and how do you stack the life of a mouse or dog or pig or whatever against that of a person. I do wish though there was more centralised pooling of results and developments, so that the same tests aren't being repeated or duplicated unneccesarily

i just found out i got the next 6 days off!! whoooo!
so since i got the weekend off too, we could go camden during the day! i haven't done that for aaages! the camden weekend thing that is. so let me know if you can do either saturday or sunday. i really need to go to that gun shop... i was looking at the site again last night and.. it felt like i was a teenager looking at porn sites. oh, i'm so gonna buy one.. or two..
they're fuckin pricey, and i may owe 12000 to my bank and i may be reaching my limit on my credit card, but i'll be damned if i don't buy somethin from in there!!
i'm a bit excited..
i'll let you know about friday night.

*fuckin typos

My last paper was centered on an artist, Coco Fusco, and how she challenges the way institutions (museums, and other cultural institutions) present stereotypes (usually over-sexualized... and scandelous stereotypes) as the "savage untamed other". However, she also explores how the cultures that are often represented by these stereotypes use the stereotype in the tourist industry. Thus, it becomes a self-fulfilling process. Westerners expect the "savage" and the culture presents it to them to boost the tourist industry... It becomes this theatrical thing

I've been reading a lot of Homi Bhabha's Location of Culture. And there was this great essay on Coco Fusco, (as well as a transcription of an interview with Fusco and fellow performer Nao Bustamante) by Caroline Vercoe called Agency and Ambivalence: A Reading of Works by Coco Fusco in Body Politics and the Fictional Double. Very cool... actually I recommend the whole book.

That's sort of where I'm at. I really need to re work my essay now that I have some more ideas... but hopefully I'll get it published someday.

damn your doc was an asshole!!!!

my usual doc is really good, i just couldnt get to see her that day

awwww well, sure it'll work itself out

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I thought you read it already? I'll send it to you anyway.

And yes, it's kinda weird about that photo, eh?

ah right, cool, thanks

I just stopped in after seeing your in in the Tattoo thread, and i wanted to comment on how lovely your scars are. I've got a thing for scars, don't know why

sounds like you've made the right decision, to leave your job.

I just read through the comments and see who catches my eye. Somedays it takes me a long time. But yesterday I found 2 people right away. It isn't hard for me to think of things to say. I tend to ramble in real life so I just let it come out on paper. That dosen't however mean that the reader finds it interesting. Or can read it for that matter. My spelling and handwriting are terrible. I hope you injoy my letter.

If you need anything let me know.

Um did you hallucinate by some kind of agent or just on your own?? Can I ask that??

I used to analyse my dreams, back when I was interested in psychoanalysis, but came to some rather glib and unlikely conclusions and decided it was a bit of a waste of time, or even counter-productive.

Besides, I think most things in dreams can usually be explained by a combination of events during the day...

The reason I only quote fragments of dreams in my journals is cos that's usually all I remember, and it seems kind of dishonest to try and reconstruct something more coherent.

i fucking hate words. because they are meaningfully less than what i feel or think & could express in nothing but being if we were to spend any fucking time together. i resolve...i shall quit smoking within two weeks & i shall find my way to you within a year. if someone gifted me with a trip to see you i would take it rather than feel ashamed for need .

it can't be much longer.

i do love.
& it's you.

i did ya 2 cd's of musical goodness.
well it's good to my ears....
