"If I were to imagine the ideal religion for global capitalism, it would be what I ironically call Western Buddhism. Its basic lesson is that you shouldn't get totally involved in social reality, that you should learn to withdraw into an inner peace. Don't even try to grasp what is going on, just resign yourself.

i fear inner peace
Feeling sad and a little wistful this rainy sunday evening. By chance I heard "Summer Song" by Chad and Jeremy on the radio today and it launched me into an mp3-downloading frenzy. There's something about softly sung love songs with lush string arrangements and perky brass accents that makes life seem less glum. Here is my playlist in progress:
* Chad and Jeremy * Summer...

well right now I study the art of diversion and procrastination. The idea is that I am to be studing all manners of Music/Math as it applies to music(i.e. accoustics). I don't go with any intent of getting one of these "degrees" I keep hearing about-I just like to learn-that shocks quite a few people that I use school mearly as a device to "learn" but thats it-So when someone asks and I dont want to explain I say something ambiguous and vague like"mutidepartmental degree" just because I've been in school almost long enough to get a Phd(enough credits to if they only fit into a disipline) So yeah-Today I get drunk, listen to music, fart around with the roomies, record at little and I've never felt so good doing so little-Xaqs a happy guy

blech. so hungover.
my buddy brian was in town from seattle. we snuck into RISD's senior fashion show. got hammered on free champagne and chocolate truffles. completely knee-deep in super-rich, super-hottt, super-vapid art boys and chixx. Saw a dress made out of metrocards and almost puked the champers-soaked strawberries I was eating like candy.
What is it about art school students that makes me...

blah blah blah. so bored.
usually there are good shows in providence all the time, but this past week has been a little dry. at least I didn't go see that show in nearby Warwick where at least 97 people died last night. I suppose it's good though, because it means I have more time for work and school and less stuff to spend money...

glad you made it back- I'm really excited to hear what you get into this week keep me posted-xaq
yesterday was so valentine-y.
I woke up and decided I was going to dress up 50's pin-up style complete with obscene green eyeshadow, do-rag, back-seam stocking, blah, blah, blah.
Went downstairs to the coffee shop and they were playing ESG. Got into a conversation w/ the cute barrista about them. He noticed I was carrying the dalek album ("from the filthy tongues of gods and...

lots of good news.
if you know me, you know that I have a tendency to bitch about my hair a lot -- I have a curly hair inferiority complex (or c.h.i.c. for short). mostly this comes into play because I've always wanted bangs, but bangs and fuzzy hair make for fuzzy bangs, which suck. anyhoo, someone the other day was like "just get some...

hello suicide girls.
just moved from portland to providence. I was missing portland like crazy so, uh, I got an account at suicide girls. Used to dance at union jacks, where I met the raddest women ever. since leaving, I think I've come to really appreciate how amazing portland's adult industry can be. So I guess this is how I can stay involved in it,...

Wow.... Portland to Providence..... that's gotta be rough.
I don't know a whole lot about either city's sex industry, but what I've seen in Providence is pretty sketchy.
Good luck with all of your subversive plans
