MOOD: anxious MUSIC: Duke Ellington - East St. Louis Toodle-oo This morning I dreamt that a pair of short, purple, spandex trousers with black paisleys came in the mail that had belonged to Prince at one time. It was a Christmas fucking miracle!!!! Today, after a two-hour shift, a city inspector told us we don't … Continue reading Halloween

Mrs. Jones R.I.P.
Drea's cat got put to sleep. She was only a kitten earlier this year. Something injured her and she was becoming paralyzed. It reminded me of my rabbit Tchaikovsky who suffered a similar fate. This reminds me of one of the many reasons I don't like owning pets. When I was young, I had pet … Continue reading Mrs. Jones R.I.P.
dreams
I dreamt that I hiked over the Hollywood Hills. On the other side, everything was beautiful and covered with snow. I had to take a ski lift down and the ticket seller flirted with me. I found a hedgehog. I eagerly built it an environment inside of a glass fishbowl with an opening so small … Continue reading dreams
World Cinema
Hey, if any of my wodies has a code for starting a community, I'd love to have one so that I could start a World Cinema community and then my friends with no interest in that sort of thing can easily avoid having to read about them. So, tonight is the night. It's a secret … Continue reading World Cinema
living off falafel burgers and climbing the walls
I'm suffering from a horrible strain of cabin fever. How late did the music listening last into this morning? I meant to pound on the wall but was probably too faint. And am I supposed to be at somebody's birthday party right now? Did everyone's parents get pregnant on Valentines?
Godlike Genius of Nick Cave-related schtuff
I need a good name for the new Godlike Genius compilation. It's all going to be bands related sonicly and geneologicly related to Nick Cave. I don't really necessarily want to mention Nick Cave in the name because, while he's the biggest and most influential fruit of the scene, Simon Bonney or Rowland S. Howard … Continue reading Godlike Genius of Nick Cave-related schtuff
New LJ Community
I'd like to use my soapbox to let everyone know of the creation of Live Journal's newest sensation... the world_cinema forum... Rock solid and stay gold, fool!
mas sueños
One more thing... the whole day I've been trying to remember the context of the dream. I've been hearing a lot of odd names in dreams lately and this morning I woke up repeating Allasagn-Don in my head, which I fear is not a real name at all but much in keeping with handles like … Continue reading mas sueños
Subtle racism
I'm always disheartened by people using racist terms unironically, especially if they don't realize it. When might someone use a racist term without even realizing it? Try "white trash" or "poor, white trash". Have whites that haven't made lots of money somehow failed their race? Are all poor people trash? Are poor people of other … Continue reading Subtle racism
dreams
I dreamt that Christian, Drea, Natalya, Rebecca and I were cavorting in Frenchy's Mine, a mine that CPM and I discovered in real life. We probably shouldn't have been so loud and racous... nor shooting fireworks inside because the whole mine starting shaking and we ran for the entrance to get out. Water starting flowing … Continue reading dreams
