After over a month of nail-biting and slickster conversation, I finally got my fucking raise. But that will not tie me down to this job or L.A., I tell you.

I still intend to go to grad school, start a political consulting firm with my mother, track the Yeti, be the first woman on the moon, single-handedly destroy it and then drain the Great Lakes....

I caught the last show of LAWRENCE OF ARABIA last night. It was spectacular. Dark theatre, epic film. Best way to spend a lazy Sunday evening.

So... after much anticipation, it looks like I'm going to be writing a book with an old professor of mine revolving around how new technologies/software have changed the way in which texts are researched, written and exist. He may have the CEO of a software company on board for some funding.

I'm completely geeked. This is exactly the sort of thing I wish to be...

So where have you been since Thurs pm/Fridayam? There is the yearly gay parade in front of my apt. I forget every year that at 5am they bring in portapotties and it's super queen all day here. Why? I dunno...gay pride? Thought there were enough gay pride events with Halloween, the real gay pride day, etc. Oh well, I'll just have to live with the marching bands playing "Hooray for Hollywood" The "Cheer up" cheerleading team, the bad techno, the super buff dudes sans shirts, Jackie Goldberg, the drag queens......so what makes this day differnt from all others, I guess?

PS....lotsa shows this week....The 88 (your favs monday), Bedroom Walls, Gwendolyn, Rex Aquarium and Kennedy is hosting the LA Weely music Awards. Insane....wanna come to some?

Two of my very best friends who moved out here to live with me are turning into such fucking assholes, I can't believe it. At times I feel like I don't recognize them anymore.

They've jumped on the California bandwagon full-force: Eastern religion, quitting smoking, yoga and a riddance to all wardrobe that is even slightly "Manhattan." Fine. Great. So be it. It's great for...

I am superhuman. I have been putting it away like there is no tomorrow. It's weird cuz last night I drank for like 4 hours, drank well over 10 beers but wasn't really even that drunk. I will say that I did get tanked the night before last but that had to do with the super green bud. But usually when I drink, I can feel it after 3/4 drinks...not here.....I wanna move here. And did I tell you my entire bill came to $14?

We need to come down here together and raise some serious hell. Aside from the humidity, its nirvana. Po Boys, giant burgers and all the liquor you can drink. Yeah, we need to spend some time here. You ready?

Ever feel trapped?

I could suffocate today should I really spend some time thinking about it.

WANTED: Stolen car, plentiful margaritas and an open road headed south to Mexico. Armed driver and getaway music a plus.

unfortunately not a dude creation tshirt. just a shirt i picked up at Y-Que on vermont, for a friend's birthday. i didn't think too much of the shirt when i got it, but he says that he's the new talk of the town, everybody keeps asking him where he got it. very cool!

Alright... news: I just moved into the new office. Not too shabby. I kind of feel like the red-headed step-child in the eyes of the more notable firms and employees around here, but so be it. The building is fucking rad.

I am (finally) after two years here in LA moving into my own digs in a really great apartment a few blocks down the...

Call soon. Sorry about Cursive. Asshole!

Time to change the journal kiddo.

You were missed at Fais Do Do last night. GREAT venue, shitty sound. It's a converted bank and looks like a building you see somewhere else besides LA. We bulldoze these things. Kennedy was fun too.

Then I went for a drink at the watering hole closest to me...a bar I only show very few as it is so strange, odd, fun, weird and makes no sense at all. One day.....

Got caught up watching SIGNS till 4am last night.....zzzzzzzzzzz

Bad, bad few days in LA followed by a week's respite in Iowa. I am currently carless... which is making my life hell to say the least. My current situation may drag me away from here... possibly by December (?) but looks like it may propel me into graduate school sooner rather than later... which can only be a good thing. I'm a little sad,...

It's a sad day in my little world. The Better Boyfriends -- good friends and music/performer extraordinaires -- are finally performing their last show before disbanding. Visit the boys' site before it's too late... The Better Boyfriends!

Don't be terrified. They work very hard at being creepy.

Work has its boot on my neck, but so be it. The weekend is quickly approaching and, as it stands, should be a pretty fantastic time.

I'm off to sunny Ojai tonight for a weekend of nerdy Great Books Faust seminars, fresh squeezed margs and pot-tubbing. Never bad.

Caught the TV on the Radio show last night and was blown away. They were so god...

I'm a little grizzly today.

The heat in my apartment was so oppresive last night that I kept waking up every hour or two. I even left the two front doors wide open -- risking that chance that any one in K-town could walk right in -- just to get a little cross-wind action. No dice.

May is going to be hairy. Looks like I'm...

I'll do my best to get as much as I can from what I hear. It's now 522am and I'm just dreading the day ahead. I will need to squeeze in a nap this afternoon, but I hate naps. Naps and I don't mix well. But, I'll do my damndest to get you as much of a setlist as possible. God only knows it'll change in a month... tongue

Hey, saw Leslie huh? She's a good egg. Who were you seeing? And you saw the Kennedy/Rex billboard huh? I need to check that out.

Kitty is no closer to being better. In fact, I had to take her to an animal hospital today for an ultra sound. It's distressing for her, distressing for me and distressing for my wallet. I am at $1,850 and counting and no closer to knowing why she is so sick. A friend has suggested some homeopathic stuff which I am going to look into.

Enjoy your book dealio. I am so cultured and shit.
