*classes have started and I'm enjoying the whole studying thing (for now)
*work is crazy and about to get crazier
*I bought a plane ticket to Portland so I'll be seeing Otis in two weeks (hooray!)
*I've been hanging out with a fantastic gentleman, old, bald, and fat though he may be...
gnunat:
*school is a good thing (I'll be starting Oct. 3)
*work is a means to a never-end, but generally ok (though, I just started serving again, and not completely looking forward to it).
*Portland and boy sounds Fab. (I'm jealous of interstate --nonetheless, west coast-- travel, and visiting far-away lovers)
*Fantasticism lies in the weirdest lookin' places (there's something like Iowa City in Iowa?!? or Eryn from a farm home ---not to say it never happens, or that your farm home is weird.......dammit, now I've done it.)

Lolla spanked my ass, Rusty Buckets (local, check them out) rock my world, and they made me a manager at the bottle....
gnunat:
You? The fuck I am? How? smile I'm good. Busy. Been driving around like crazy (yes, licensed again) for gigs.....er- more like gig. Played the green room on Friday, but since no one really knows what the hell is happening since it switched ownership, the turnout was small. We played well though.....Oh yeah, if you'd like to hear some of our music, go to www.myspace.com/delhi. I try to change up the list everynow and then. Thursday we play Madison, WI at the Annex....hopefully we'll make more than 80 bucks. I'll stop through IC on Friday and then play a friend's wedding Saturday in Ames. Other than these crazy scenes, I've been working at Carlos O'Kelly's as a cook, which is alright except for the whole 7 $ an hour thing (prompting another job search today). Been trying to set up a move to Minneapolis for an associates degree in audio recording and engineering. Just busy getting money issues fairly squared....cleaning up my grungy act, i guess.

It sounds like your having a good summer, seeing good music and enjoying your job. Congrats on the management position. I'm sure you like chillin' around that crazy eatery enough to deal with all the underlings you now have. So, were you ever able to go to the symposium over seas? Or have you stuck with more viceral summerness? Well, I'm off to attempt productiveness. I'll talk to ya lat.

I heart summertime!

Been filling my days with shifts at the Bottle (duh), hanging out with friends, drinking a lot of PBR with orange juice, and reading my ass off. Currently in love with: Charles Bukowski and Kurt Vonnegut.

I don't mind the heat wave we've had (after the 50 degree weather all through May) but have a problem with the bugs.

Oh, and seeing...

Alright all you students out there:

I'm going to share with you a trick that has reduced my finals stress load immensly. If you're working on a paper the night (or more) before it's due, drink wine as you write. A friend of mine told me about it and I thought it sounded like a disaster, but last night I was drinking wine and got...

So, so, so close to the end of the school year! Hooray!

I'm a little worried about my grades. All my work/tests/etc. has been REALLY good--I don't think I've gotten below an A on anything. But my attendance....now that's sketchy.

We'll see if my professors are willing to overlook that little factor...
vicedriver:
attendance
a-schmendance
that's what i say
to that
i was never much
for punctuality myself

hope you're doin' well

Happy Easter!

Big news in my household...my sister's having a baby! This will be the first grandchild and we're all thrilled. The due date? October 19...my 21st birthday.

I talked to Otis yesterday for the first time since he moved to Portland...man, I miss that kid. He's supposed to call tonight, and I'm getting impatient, but they ARE two hours behind....

I really want to...

I can't get Leonard Cohen's "Hey, That's No Way To Say Good-bye" out of my head.

Last night was one of the best I've had...

A surprise phone call at 2 am after a good night out with friends, crazy, fucking-on-the-kitchen-table sex, sweet conversations until the sun came up, too many kisses to count, and saltines with cream cheese and peccorino.

asphyxiia:
love kiss kiss kiss
vicedriver:
heh
wow
i'd say
that is definitely
a great night
nigh unto perfect
