The head of the art department at my former school has a "What Would Neil Young Do?" poster hanging in his office. It makes me giggle.

The best thing about the Kitty Cat Klub is that many people hear the name and assume you went to a strip club. Really, I just got buzzed and listened to some shoegaze and grudgingly acknowledged that I'm friends with hipsters.

Hi, Alex. How are you, Alex. Do you want to be my friend, but only grudgingly?

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #2955 on:** 02 May 2009, 00:20 »

It's okay Alex, I knowingly am friends with lots of hipsters. There was a drag show and burlesque show rolled up into one tonight and it was awesome, and I danced and I knew a lot of people and my friends all rule BUT THEN I went downstairs and ran into a manager at work (he is not my manager but he sits right next to me) and he was all touchy feely which I guess, I think he's cute, but it turns out that he's a total homophobe. I just can't like him anymore. Crap.

Dear blog thread,

I have to learn this song for Akademia, as well as "Every Breath You Take" by the Police.

They couldn't have at least sprung for "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls like all 3 of us guys had been begging? It's not like they ever ask for licensing rights or anything, so it's no extra trouble for them. Also, Labinot and I could EASILY play an acoustic and just back ourselves that way.

Also I am on my Geocities account for the last time and I am saving all the shit that I think is worth saving. I am glad I saw that thread when I did.

Love,
Me!

Last night after getting out of work (I was doing the door for a Williamstown Jazz Festival show), I went and got a drink with my friend Ally (those of you who meeble probably know her as "ex-cafe girl"). It was good times, mostly because I really haven't hung out with her in FOREVER.

Of course, the show got out so late that we only made it to the bar for last call, and then left and went to Dunkin' Donuts. We're going to try and go out a bit earlier tonight, and get properly fally-down drunk.

Yay!

Oh! And I secured full-time employment for the summer. That's pretty rad. Now I can afford to buy that vintage Airline guitar and maybe a Big Muff of some sort (w/ Tone Wicker, hopefully).

dear blog thread
after years of unfortunate mistakes, poor behaviour and an assortment of bad habits, I finally decided last night that it may just be time for me to turn my life around and begin working towards a better, brighter future. I realised that life is a business opportunity and that the more you invest, the greater the rewards will be when it comes time to cash the cheques. I decided that from now on there would be no more procrastinating, that every single day matters. I would break my bad habits, I would make the most of every single opportunity presented to me and work hard at securing my future for a better tomorrow.

but I got a bad hangnail. it's pretty brutal. you can see red underneath it and it's inflamed slightly. I considered going to the A&E, but by the time I'd get out of the waiting room, it'll have healed. I absolutely can not do anything until I have healthy cuticles. just when I had prepared to turn my life around, too...
I don't know why this stuff only happens to me. I'll take it as proof that I was a mistake and that god didn't want me.

if anybody needs me I'll be nursing my sorrows over a scotch for the next few days, popping in here occasionally for attention and sympathy.

Blog thread

It's the old formula really

Boy Meets Girl
Boy thinks girl is a lesbian
Girl thinks boy is a raging homosexual
MAKEOUTS
<HELLA DRINKING>
</HELLA DRINKING>
girl is fucking drunk as SHIT, boy takes girl to get a taxi, catches a cab home with her and spends most of the trip making out with her, and then gives the taxi driver 40 dollars and tells him to make sure girl gets home safe

Boy has to get up for work in 4 hours and can't really wait around for the girl to call, will have to send her a sexy message tomorrow.

GOOD TIMES.

I don't mind that this girl seems kind of damaged, she's sweet as hell and OH GOD I AM FALLING INTO THE SAME TRAP AGAIN.

Jesus why do I only like women with problems

oh hell what do I care the girls with problems are the cutest girls anyway I should feel blessed.

Hat · « **Reply #2963 on:** 02 May 2009, 08:10 »

Seriously though I need someone to reassure me that I did the right thing because I am pretty drunk and if I had slept with this girl it would have been her first time and I don't think any woman needs to be subjected to my drunken inability to bring the visceral romances when she is not quite sure of just how disappointing an experience it is.

Sox · « **Reply #2964 on:** 02 May 2009, 08:19 »

so you're waiting until your both sober before you fuck each other senseless?
I am admittedly terrible when I am drunk.
...but the girl is usually too drunk to notice or care!
I consider this the best routine for both people involved. I get to sleep with people who would usually be miles out of my league, and they don't have to remember all the nasty details the next day.

Hat · « **Reply #2965 on:** 02 May 2009, 08:25 »

I'd just rather not have a girls first time involve the phrase "HEY DO YOU DO ANAL BECAUSE YOU DO NOW"

but then again I am a romantic by nature

Hat · « **Reply #2966 on:** 02 May 2009, 08:28 »

Actually I don't think I've had sober sex with a girl since I was like, 17, I should probably just teach myself to not be a total sensual disappointment when I am so drunk

(Darryl I am insulted that you think that I might not have fucked this girl senseless if she was out of my league, this girl is exactly my league, that is kind of the problem)

I am like fucking Kryptonite to cute scene girls.

Patrick · « **Reply #2967 on:** 02 May 2009, 11:45 »

The last time I had sex, we were drunk, blazed, she had her left wrist in a cast, and we had just started watching The Fellowship of the Ring.

Halfway through Boromir's river-burial, we finished, and could not move our legs.

It's not about the choice of words or how graphic it is. It's about the fact that I really don't want to hear about anybody's sex life.

Actually I could do without hearing about sex at all for, oh, six months or so. I mean have you been out there? It's just sex, sex, sex, 24/7. How about we as a society talk about trees for a while instead. I like trees. Trees are nice and we don't pay them enough attention. I wonder if Pamela Anderson has an tips about pruning? I also find myself curious to know about how David Duchovny deals with Dutch Elm Disease, and about whether George Clooney prefers oaks or birches.

My least favorite tree is the Cottonwood!!!. They are not only one of the least cute trees but also they puff out so every spring when they start blooming it looks like it's snowed again. Okay maybe the little cotton puffs are kind of cute but that's it.

I'm so frustrated with art - I have a portfolio due Friday and I need at least two more pieces and everything I do right now is shit. The college that I'm going to doesn't even accept the studio art AP for credit so it's all sort of an exercise in futility. I wouldn't be worrying so much if I didn't have four other APs to study for (aka APs that may actually earn me credit). As it is, I'm covered in oil paint and my back aches and I haven't done shit. I'm giving up for the weekend and studying for French which is on Monday.

You might be thinking "so why bother?" but I'll feel like I wasted a huge amount of time if I don't send in my portfolio (not to mention my teacher might slay me). This is also my own stupid fault for taking so many AP classes when everyone told me not to and I hate myself a lot and I'm so angry and I'm home alone and just need a hug or something and ahhh

(non-americans: AP stands for "advanced placement," classes that you can take in highschool that are meant to simulate a semester-long college class. at the end of the year (aka next week) you take terrifying exams that are usually pretty difficult and then you're graded from 1-5, with 5 being the best. except studio art is 1-6 because people who are just amazing get 6s I guess. most universities award credit for 4s and 5s, or at least let you place out of introductory classes. completely depends on the school.

My least favorite tree is the Cottonwood!!!.

Someone in Canberra had the bright idea to plant a ring of cottonwoods around basically every single educational institute in the city. This means that every spring every school pupil and university student is choking on tree fluff. At the Australian National University they say that if you haven't started studying for your final exams by the time the fluff starts flying, you're doomed to failure.

A lovely group of trees that people (especially outside Australia) probably won't have heard of are the Angophoras.

Dear Blog Thread.

I am not good at talking to my girlfriend and it makes me feel like poopoo. Also, I started reading Cat's Cradle tonight, and it is excellent. I am probably going to finish it by monday. I am feeling a bit better now, which leads me to believe that I do not have mono. I am just feeling sort of lame and I am now going to listen to Silkworm and feel bad for myself.

Good night

Hello Blog Thread!

My father got a letter in the mail informing him of an art show they wanted to tell him about, and thought he should be in! So I decided to go in his place (yes, he knows about the letter). The theme is BACKYARDS, that is, in all capitals. They require capitals, I think? So, I went through my pictures to decide which ones could be considered relevant to a show about BACKYARDS and have found two insofar that meet my requirements, and I have found many, many others that could be a possible third, but have scrapped them all, and will possibly go on a picture-taking spree this month to find a third! Here are the two I have found so far:

Titled "The Only Moment We Were Alone", named for an Explosions in the Sky song.

This one I've called "Trail of Life" but only as a temporary title. Still can't think of what to really call it, because "Trail of Life" feels like a really shitty title. Then again, this picture isn't that strong from a commercial viewpoint, so maybe it needs a shitty title.

I'll be thinking of something else in the meantime. Bluegrass. Bluegrass! Maybe that. It's my backyard, anyways.

I don't think that word means what you think it means

Shut up.

Anyway I've done two hours of german revision and in ten minutes I'm going to do some more! It's finally sunk in that my exams are in about five weeks and hey, maybe I should do some work! Thanks to a large amount of revision-related procrastination I have a very neat breakdown of all the topics I need to revise, and a huge number of neatly organised folders, so now that I've found my revisioning swing I should be flying through it! The problem is that it's sunny outside and lots of my friends don't have exams and I'm jealous of their sunbathing lethargy.

My new ex (I can't really think of any better way to put it) decided to get a Facebook and add me. This story just gets more fucking bizarre every day.

I am already planning on having makeouts with Other Girls (not even joking, we're meeting up tomorrow) because now I don't have a relationship to render meaningless (I am still feeling like a giant shitbag over this, but if I'm going to fuck up, I'd better at least do it right). I think I am pretty well past the point of no return as far as the ending of this relationship goes. It's over and she knows it's over and I am sticking to my guns here.
