this week: where did you go? if memory serves me, saturday before last i went to see nux vomica and hellshock, while waiting for the bus i was regaled by an older black gentleman with the following tale: "maaaaan the other day i was just sittin here and i seen this mexican runnin from the po-lice and motherfucker dropped a bag, so i picked that ( Read more... )

i had a dream last night i was lying face up at the bottom in an open grave on the beach in south carolina at night time, smoking a joint, while miles davis shoveled sand onto me. after a while arthur rimbaud's drunken boat crashed on the shore, he stumbled out bewildered, peered down at me, mumbled something about a gruel of stars, and dissapeared ( Read more... )

last night i had one of those sort of time milestone moments while Yob was playing at the ash street saloon. I had spent the evening making tacos and doing tequila shots with friends, maybe too many tequila shots, culminating in me adding a little bit of tequila and taco and stomach acid to the willamette river over the edge of the burnside bridge ( Read more... )

 i can't express how much of my life i feel has been lost recently in the fear of joining up with the mom n pop job no matter what it be. thats the most insidious part of the whole economy debacle. i feel like i have to stay at a job that, if i could escape with impunity,  i would lock the doors burn down and incinerate the whole staff. that is not ( Read more... )

i'll try and piece together the shards of whats been happening to me in the last week, i think it was monday that i met deaner at the tube after school, and we went to ground kontrol with his friend from south dakota, then went home and got stoned and debated about hawkwind or other such life-pressing matters. Tuesday adam/ripley snell and me/ill ( Read more... )

i tried to do the master cleanse this week, but due to a preponderance of school work requiring more of my mental facilities than a fasted brain could offer i called it short. i got drunk two days later at my district manager's boyfriend's birthday party, there was a cassette dj which is an interesting and inherently stupid idea. i enjoyed white ( Read more... )

i dont think anyone still uses this medium to connect with people, i kind of miss updating it. i go to school now, full time, its an interesting shift in life-paradigms, i have a "direction" now. since my last post i've turned 24, and its terrifying and depressing. there has been a palpable loss of youthful vigor in myself, i'm extremely thankful ( Read more... )

i drank a great deal of cough syrup last night because i had a cough and now i've woken up and i still feel like i'm listening to a screwed and chopped master p album in my brain, loudly. i'll write to salvage my brain from the dextromethorphan stew. i'd like to preface this recount with something that i've begrudgingly come to accept about myself ( Read more... )

i've never spent a great amount of time mulling over the possible meanings of certain steely dan hits, but this last week in the waning summer time i've found myself in a state that could perhaps best be described as reeling in the years. i like to think of it as less of reelin as one would do if he caught a fish, and more reeling like feeling ( Read more... )

i just got back from spending 4 days in san diego, a town which as come for me in retrospect to be the cocoon or incubator of sorts, i guess the best metaphor would be decompression chamber, between being a teen, blossoming into a dude, and catapulting out and slowly beginning the transmogrification whereupon one ends up being a man. being such a ( Read more... )
