Holy shit. It's over already? My break that is. I graduated two weeks ago, and I'm starting my first "real" job tomorrow. Jesus, that didn't last long. I suppose I need money more than I need a holiday. Whee.

I'm quitting smoking today. I've gotta go get some nicorette because I'm already freaking out. Wish me luck.
lulumae:
You are fabulous. You quit smoking before, and you were just fine. I'm there for you, bootiful butterfly.

Hey it was nice to see you out Thursday night! Your table was definitely the most entertaining of the night. And I was bored as shit. Too bad you guys left without trying to steal some glasses...

Alright then. I'm back.

Finished school. Forever.

Starting full-time job on May 3rd.

Cleaned apartment.

Found girlfriend.

Read a book.

Drank a lot.

Haven't spent as much time with LuluMae as I'd like, but that's something we can fix.

Life is good.

PS. Uploads some new pictures. Deleted some old ones.
lulumae:
I didn't go anywhere.
Dropped out of school.
Working every night this week. And some days.
Did NOT clean house. Did not do laundry. Wearing last pair of clean underwear.
Lost best friend, lost recent love interest.
Read a book.
Didn't drink nearly enough.
Definitely haven't spent enough zerosome time. Not enough at all.
Life? Not so good. But could always get worse.
lulumae:
PS- Welcome back, my bootiful butterfly!

Alright, alright... I guess I'll update my journal since apparently the only two people that read it have asked. I was going to keep that post until the Bob Log III show, but I suppose I'll give in. biggrin

Life is proceeding predictably: school is hard, money is short, and people are complicated. Nothing new.

Went to an all-ages show on Friday night. My friend's ska...

I want my hat back. But I also don't want to give your shirt back. Fuck. Maybe I'll just have to kill you and keep both. We should hang out in any case. Bob Log?

Pooheads BE DAMNED!

Woooooooooo!

Guess who's coming to town?

THE LOG!!!

That's right, Bob Log III will be yet again blessing the lowly residents of Victoria with his god-like presence. I hear he might even perform a song or two.

If you have no idea who Bob Log III is, console yourself with the knowledge that even someone as rad as I (your humble narrator) was once ignorant...

Hey Bootiful... you should update your journal!

I agree.
Oh, and when are you gonna make that industrial remix of "Money,Sex,Fame,Glamour" for me?
Get on it!

I woke on Sunday depressed. So nothing out of the ordinary... Until of course I had what might be referred to as an epiphany. Though I make extensive use of hyperbole in day to day life, I'm being absolutely serious here.

Though I can't go into details on the big change in my life, I can say with certainty that things are looking up. Oddly...

That is good.
I am glad.
At least one of us is doing better.

Hey Babe... nice to see you've got your journal up and running again. Now I can stalk you online. Muahahahaha.

I've been trying to make my life a little more manageable. So I've been getting more sleep, partaking in less drugs, and being just a little more boring in general.

While it's been a nice change of pace, it hasn't solved all my problems. I still feel tired most of the time, and am having a hard time coping with the little things. Sometimes I...

Wow. It's been a while since my last update.

My life ran off without me, and I've been trying to catch up ever since. That's been an uphill battle, but I seem to be making a lot of progress (mostly thanks to LuluMae).

I'm back at school. For the LAST TIME! Wooooo! Classes end in March, and finals in April. Then I get to wear...

Looks like you didnt need my company at all. Amusement follows you.
Yeop.
zerosome:
It was lovely meeting you as well toria (as hazey as the memory is).

Ophelia, I'm glad that I wasn't the only one that enjoyed that. biggrin

That was one of the best nights in recent memory. Wonderful on just about every level. I don't know that I'd say amusement follows me though... maybe insanity. One of my favourite aphorisms is "Everywhere I go, there I am."

I think I burned my "fun budget" for the next while. I had best focus on school. I've lived a reckless lifestyle for so long now, I almost forget how to live responsibly. Wish me luck.

And Death Shall Have No Dominion
by Dylan Thomas

And death shall have no dominion.
Dead men naked they shall be one
With the man in the wind and the west moon;
When their bones are picked clean and the clean bones gone,
They shall have stars at elbow and foot;
Though they go mad they shall be sane,
Though they sink through the sea...

GEB was one of the most challenging books I've ever read. Fortunately it also happens to be one of the most intellectually stimulating and rewarding books I've ever enjoyed. Coming from me, I'd like to believe that statement carries significant weight. I'm not just comparing it to Tom Clancy-like fiction. I very nearly read nothing but non-fiction material covering physics, cognitive science, and logic / mathematics / philosophy.

Hmmm... I just reread that paragraph... I think I might have crossed the line with the excessive pretentious and narcissistic rambling. Oh well. It's a damn fine book.

Oh, and Firelust, how did you stumble upon my profile?
no:
I basically only buy science books: biology, physics (cosmology, history of cosmology, for-the-masses string theory/relativity and such...), and a lot of biographies and autobiographies (Feynman, Pauling, Wilson, Hawking...). But when it comes right down to it, it's hard for me to finish one. They all have some sort of bookmark because I never got back to them, but moved onto something else.

On the hookup tab, you're picture came up on the left. smile

Just did an all-ages show. It was okay. whatever
Semi-decent turnout (the place was full for the head-liner), but we were unbelievably sloppy. Nothing is more frustrating that playing a show you're not happy with. Though I did have some people tell me that I sound just like Tom Waits, which made it all better. biggrin
Now I have to get back into school mode. Three midterms...

w00t! A brief calm... Just finished a whack of school work, did my presentation this morning, and wrote my DSPII midterm this afternoon. It won't last long, but I'm going to relax this afternoon. I'm simply in the eye of the hurricane for a brief moment. biggrin
