I'm sure you were much better off with books, cats and lemmon squares. Those loose women are nothing but trouble anyway wink

Oh did you say you were staying near copley? That's a good spot. Short walk from the MFA Boston, Mass Art, Museum Shool and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and lots of other stuff. Perhaps you already knew that.

I've been a busy little bee. In fact, not not 10 minutes ago I launched a website to help generate content for my thesis. I also just chopped a bunch of little flyers to hand out at the Dropkick Murphys/ Whisky or Blood/ Ducky Boys show I will be attending tonight. I'll update soon...tomorrow maybe.

Congrats on your article! That's got to feel pretty damn good. love

mmmmmm Day Off.


psyche. A day of paper grading. I'm going to try and get through thirty of them. 5-6 hours. If I am Lucky.

And I missed seeing the Slint Reunion Show in Louisville by Two Days. Fuckfuckittyfuckfuck. The one band that I have never tired of. Been listening to em for at least 14 years. one record store guy there said it was...

Yeah good luck with those papers! Sweet for the coffee! I hear the cofee in the US is pretty bad, I don't drink coffee so I wouldn't really be a good judge of that but I know that everytime I've been with coffee drinkers they usually couldn't finish the cup without saying it was "sockjuice" biggrin
And yeah, Laura Mulvey is great, her theories aren't very uptodate on feminism because of how old the text is but an interesting read nonetheless.

MMM. Relieved that last week is over. Guh. House guests. Exhausting. Now I'm sitting on 135 papers [well, not actually sitting on them, I mean, waiting to grade them]. But I am looking forward to driving to Louisville on Thursday for the 20th century literature conference. Never been to Louisville, land of Bourbon, Slint, and Will Oldham.

Saw the new Zatoichi movie. Blind Yakuzi swordsman....

I read Dorian Gray for honors english my senior year of highschool. Unfortunately I don't remember much of it. I skipped a lot of school that year to work on my portfolio and pretty much just relied on my reputation as a smarty pants to get me through.

I'm not kidding about you teaching a class here. I think you'd enjoy it. As much as I complain about hipsters and intellectual masterbators, it's a pretty awesome place. Lots of art and music to take in.

Mmmm my supermarket's "international" section consists almost entirely of european sweets. Mmmm.

ooo aaa

They'll let pretty much anyone teach here during "wintersession." I've had grads teach a class. One of them had never taught before and hopefully he never will again. It starts right after New Years and lasts six weeks. It's basically a time for students to go crazy and take something out of their major. We can only take two classes, so they are pretty intense.

come teach and frolic with me. I know you wanna.

Guh,

I just watched Tommy. To my mind, the Who have always been the first Punk Rock band, and my favorite rnr band in general since I was about 12 -- But I hadn't seen Tommy since I was about 14. My god, there must have been lots of Drugs floating around the set. Ken Russell -- guh, what a masturbation on Film. Pretty funny...

valentines day kiss to you.

Mmmm. Intellectual masturbation. There is a lot of that around these parts. I avoid it by keeping myself busy with the other kind of masturbation blush

Anyway, I've decided that you should teach a class at RISD during their six week "wintersession" someday. Students will make you cool stuff like sphinxes made out of suffed cats and huge talking barbie doll heads, or nifty black and white silent films. Just a thought.

Hope you had a good time flaunting your bachelorhood in front of all the pathetic codependant couples. Oh, and I hope you ate lots of candy too!

A foggy day off. Even though I want to go and tramp through the woods, get lost in the fog, I have to write, write, write. I love foggy days, the muffled peace of them. Once upon a time I lived in Northern California and loved the early morning fog, the no-sound/smell of it on its little cat feet.

Trying to plan my spring break...

My god, there must have been lots of Drugs floating around the set. Ken Russell -- guh, what a masturbation on Film. Pretty funny and dated actually, but when you are used to the all Who music and then listening to the gutless broadway film sndtrk version. well, poo. It does not rawk in the least. Maybe it would've been entertainng if I was high. The part with Ann Margaret rolling around, humping the pillow in the pudding and baked beans with her boobie hanging out was pretty friggin' classic though.

Went out drinking earlier, then came home and had a cheap candy / smoked almond debauche. And now head and stomach are pissed at me.

to bed...

Just sucked down some coffee so I could get some work done. So friggin happy it is Friday tomorrow. Not like I'm doing anything this weekend -- too busy....

Hah. went to bed at 9pm last night. Hopefully I can get all my prep done for class early so that I can have a "fun" day -- which probably means sitting on the couch trying not to spend any money.

wow. very bummed out about Johnny Carson. He dropped out of sight after he retired (except for his Simpsons appearance) -- and he truly earned his retirement. It was comforting to know that he was still out there. I remember watching to tonight show so vividly. My grandmother fell asleep to him every single night. Who's gonna crack wise about Burbank now?
