Last night I watched "The Machinist" with Christian Bale. I think it was one of the best movies I've seen this year. Bale plays a man (Trevor Reznik) that has not slept for a year. In order for Bale to fit this role he lost 67 pounds! He didn't even look real, he looked like a Holocaust victim. It was also directed by Brad Anderson, I think he also ( Read more... )

The last 3 nights I've been staying at my sisters house because she's on vacation in San Diego. So naturally when I go to sleep, I've been sleeping on her bed. My dreams are so different while I sleep on her bed. I came to realize that whenever I sleep on my girlfriend's bed, that my dreams are different as well. What I'm getting at is, what if our ( Read more... )

So I have this huge Bauhaus button on my Blockbuster uniform and the weirdest people talk to me about it. Like one of the teachers at my old high school came in and she's like "Wow Bauhaus! Are they still around?" Then she started to tell me about how she listened to Joy Division and Sisters of Mercy when she was younger. It was crazy ( Read more... )

So everything is going pretty good in my life at the moment. I'm becoming a manager at Blockbuster. I get paid more and I still get the same hours as I do now. I'm also starting to sell my art which is nice. I'm selling a ply wood painting for 30$ and some watercolour paintings for 10$ each. I know it's not much, but I have to start somewhere.

Monday night I went to see Interpol in Tucson and it was one of the worst shows ever! 4 hour drive round trip, you couldn't see the stage because of all these tall football jocks, there were kids thinking they were gangsters at a wu-tang show and other kids moshing thinking it was a punk show. Even Interpol looked disappointed. I mean it's pretty ( Read more... )

I'm not very good at writing, but anyway here's a poem I wrote the other night while taking a bath ( Read more... )

So last night at work I finally talked to this guy Doug. He's been coming into blockbuster for a year. I've only talked to him for a couple of minuets in the past about David Lynch or the movies he rented. But last night he came in and we started talking about my paintings and his poetry. Then he gave me a CD to put and I did. The poems were so ( Read more... )

About 3 months ago I was going on a walk, thinking about all the shitty things that had just happened in my life when I came up to a beer bottle cap. The cap said "believe" on it and that gave me great hope that everything was going to be ok. I just needed to believe and things would get better. But it turned out the next week was the worst of my ( Read more... )

So I might be switching jobs. This lady Donna I work with at blockbuster, just told me that her brother is hiring drivers for the funeral home he works at. So my job would be to go pick up dead bodies in the middle of the night an bring them back to the home. I also get a tour of the house next week.
