the party was pretty fun, unfortunately, by nighttime i was tired and i didn't really feel like going to a party. fairly typical of me. i stopped at walter's house to give him a mohawk; we we're going as punks to the 'prom.' i was sorta rude boy stylr, with an exceptionally mod cut sustom suit i just got, walter was more thrasher punk with a long ( Read more... )

up early this morning... like that super-alert-vacation-up-early-in-the-morning thing. i was well rested, packed, and ready to go ice climbing! killed time perusing a stack of victoria's secret catalogs while jan puttered around the house. we debated, as we always do, whether to forgo breakfast, and be "hardcore", or eat a ridiculously huge meal.

jan called early this morning... my check hadn't shown up yet, so i wasn't going climbing with him today. he was bummed out since he had the day off. isn't that the worst, when you have a perfectly good day to screw around, but no one else can accompany you? so.. jan drove two and a half hours from his house in new hampshire to pick me up!

very tired, eyes still burning from the filthy ceiling dust, even though i have napped, and it has been hours since i left work. i freaked out last night, and smashed an expensive fixture at the store that i was supposed to be installing. "why the ____ am i working at night, in new york, doing a trade i'm fairly new at?!" i couldn't get the light ( Read more... )

when i post nothing, it is because i have added nothing to my life but another eighty six thousand four hundred seconds ( Read more... )
