Waffle House always has a way of giving me the reality check that I need. I was sitting in my local Waffle House at ten o'clock on VD, when my waitress came over to take my order. She said, "How you doin'?", which is a question I always answer honestly. If you don't want to know, don't ask
My response was something along the lines...

Eyes closed. By degrees, consciousness invades my sleep. Slowly I become aware of my surroundings, savoring each sensory discovery. The inquisitive, not-quite-awake trills of my cat George, curled up next to my arm. Tatari, my other cat, playing with a dried up rose leaf on the tile floor; short, hollow scrapes. The 'tap tap tap' of the rain as it drips from the roof next...

thanks for the birthday wishes!!!! and it's friday too- friday the 13th my favorite day (i was born on a friday too)
i wish my days began that poetically- i usually wake to my cat chester banging his head into me repeatedly then clawing at my face or my other cat Pubert clawing at my eyes. i think he wants to eat my eyeballs.

mmmm nice. It's been a long time since I've been that aware upon awakening.
I've managed to beat the beast to a bloody pulp such that it has dragged its' realm of negative effect back into the dark crevice in my mind that it came from. Diving head first into physical activity (mostly Kung Fu class; 6 classes in 7 days...) that leaves me too exhausted to ponder imponderables about my life. Obviously a stop-gap method of dealing with...

now that sounds like a vaguely productive use of depression. plus, the endorphines may actually make you feel better. hope that it helps!

I get depressed about being out of shape, so I eat.... it is a viscious circle... but it is kinda like what you do... the similarity is that I eat chinese food, not practice chinese kung fu. hehe
A song for the day, from Hedwig and the angry inch:
Forgive me,
For I did not know.
'Cause I was just a boy
And you were so much more
Than any god could ever plan,
More than a woman or a man.
And now I understand how much I took from you:
That, when everything starts breaking down,
You take the pieces off the...

Yeah man... I feel for ya. Life in Deland, FL ain't too exciting neither. The doldrums of life, eh?
Time for change.

thanks for your kind words - it really means alot all things considered.
you know, i have no ambition to represent everyone who self-mutiliates and/or self-reclaims through mutiliations, but i do think there are shared impulses/feelings that have a certain ... well, universality, but in a sort of circumscribed sense.
can't communicate too well at this precise moment, but just wanted to say tx - and as soon as i figure out what a social life is i will let you know.

Tonight contemplating the work of tomorrow. Such a waste of tonight. Today was a good day... manual labor always leaves me feeling good; tired for an honest reason, unlike so much of my time. For the rest of my week, I'll be exhausted from having to explain how to use a browser to folks with PhD's. Imagine that: a high school dropout teaching the teachers...

the only person I have known to drive off with a laptop on the roof of her car was this dumb ass whore I had to tell everything twice.. she was practically the female rain man, how the hell does someone like that get a phD? WTF? I am thinking about getting a phd and chaning my last name to LOVE.... ah yeah DR LOVE....or maybe EVIL.. dr evil... hehe that would be pretty good to have my last name evil, after all, I am the evil one.

what's a browser??
I never do anything halfway either. all or nothing.
I think it was in buddha's journal where he was saying something about hating sleep and what a waste of time it is. As much as I enjoy the rest I do get I wish I didn't need any at all. If I don't get 6hrs I feel like I've been run over by large vehicle. Of course when I was younger this wasn't such a problem. Last August I went to Vegas for four days and only got about 3 hours of sleep while I was there...but that was different

No work today; no snow, but it only takes ice on the roads here to shut down the world... it's the South, after all

just perusing through your website now. love the halloween pictures and the 35mm scans, particularly the covered bridge and the two entry ways leading to the door in that old house. if you ever put that one into print let me know.
I purchased a print from this gentleman Will -the 'Screw' under objects. I also want to get 'needle on record'.
relationships swing from effortless to arduous. I have to remember that. thanks for your thoughts.
I am thinking of riding down to Savannah on my bike this summer. Have you been?

Unfortunately, I have little to share with you except my writing on Splinters & Candy. That is the site where I will be putting things. Right now there is just writing and some cheapo digital camera photos.
I would love to do a shoot with you. Maybe a band shoot or something. I must say, it is rare that a photographer can capture lifestyles and nature so well. Job well done.

Listening to the new Robert Wyatt record today. If 'Shleep' was the reincarnation of 'Rock Bottom', 'cuckooland' is the reincarnation of 'Ruth is stranger than Richard'. For those who don't know Bob's music, this is a great thing. It may just be what I needed to make me feel better today.

Hello,
Well - as far as alternative processes go it depends entirely on which one you prefer. There are cyanotypes, gum prints, van dyke prints, platinum prints.. etc... Maybe you should get a book and read about them and decide which one seems easiest, most affordable, and most attractive to you? hmm.

I don't have any pictures of myself. I have at least one camera with me at all times, but cannot seem to find a picture of myself. It is occuring to me as I dig through hundreds of images that all the time I spend convincing other people to let me photograph them is a smokescreen on some level; evincing my reluctance to be in...

oh yes, Secretary is good.
puresauciness:
I am a little wierd when it comes to pictures of myself, but that is mainly because I suffer from that intensely FEMALE sickenss called low self esteem. I like to take pictures of myself or have myself photographed, but I usually rip apart the results like a hungry carnivore to a freshly bloody carcass. So much for vanity.
Since you don't have any photographs of yourself, upload pictures that you've taken and put them in your candids. I'd like to see....

Today is tuesday. No Kung Fu class tonight, which always leaves me wondering what to do with my time. I'll probably start wandering the streets with my camera. Again.
yes- i'm coming up to athens to hang with my friend strikinghelix and go to the Against Me! show...
looking forward to the whole day there
what do you do up in athens?
