Wow, people are actually reading this!

Right when I'm about to give up on this here darn blog I get a really awesome encouraging e-mail that makes me reconsider.

So, sadly I don't have anything too exciting for you, my few but loved readers. My camera broke a couple months back but I'm working on it.

Speaking of working, I've actually been very busy of late, working on what it is that I do when I'm not wasting time or trying to make ends meet (my prospective career) which seems to be moving in a slow but steady direction. (For those of you who don't know I'm a writer, mostly of the non fiction variety)

Anyway I decided to post instead the most amazing, in my humble opinion, music video ever created, Give Me Back My Man by my favorite band the B-52's. Cindy Wilson's performance in this video always breaks my heart and makes me want to simultaneously destroy things and cry at the same time.

I'm in the middle of writing a very long very difficult sort of academic essay on this very song. Isn't wonderful that people get to do things like this? I feel so blessed



Don't you want to slit your wrists and write a novel after watching that? Maybe thats just me.

Two more things, I thought about joining Facebook for the scrabble but then I read some really scary article about how once you join you can never quit! Yikes. So, sorry friends, I will not be joining Facebook and I will continue to play Scrabble in real world, besides the virtual world already owns my soul.

Last thing, Dictionary.com saves lives.

Goodnight and send me e-mails! They make me happy!<3

Dirdy Birdy

So, first I'd like to say that I was never that in to boy bands, and for those of you who don't know hold old I am, I'm 27, so that would put me in the era of s New Kids On the Block, Boyz to Men, Color Me Badd, et cetera. This isn't because I was too cool for school at the tender age of ten, but only because I have an older sister who was a teenager at this time, so I mostly listened to what she did. Hence, an early love of Guns Roses, Motley Crue- whatever, you get it, that was on my cheese meter. And then when the mid to late 90's rolled around ala N Sync, and Backstreet Boys, I was careening toward my twenties, the ship had sailed. I had successfully navigated a life thus far without putting a single boy band poster on my wall.
BUT, something strange and disturbing has occurred, like most of you, I read Perez Hilton and there I noticed that he kept posting pictures of these young boys, the Jonas Brothers. I have to admit, they were cute in that pookie wookie pinch em kind of way, but I also knew from reading Perez that the youngest one (and the cutest one) is 14. Now that makes me old enough to his teacher, aunt, mentor, or really white trash mom. AKA, I could get arrested. So I noted their cuteness and kept reading about Britney Spears. BUT, today Perez has posted a new video by them and all bets are off. They are so motherfuckin ballsy its pretty hot. They not only are little rockstars (i wasn't aware they were a band, I thought they were your standard boy band acapela) but these sly little motherfucks made an *)"S ARENA ROCK LOVE BALLAD! Their teenagers, no, PRE teenagers. They stole direct moves and scenes from some of the most famous hair metal videos of all time, case in point, Patience, Home Sweet Home, Paradise City,et cetera.
Im in love with The Jonas Brothers, and not just because i have an affinity for jew fros and big brown eyes and pouty mouths. These sexy little shits have ballz. Who does that almost twenty years later? Little shits with brains, taste and a good marketing team.
And I'm a Dirdy Birdy.

I'M BACK! Pawtry, Dahling




A POEM
Things I Did Before You

Death Metal
Bangs
Guns n Roses
Band T shirts
Flannel
Kate Bush
Whippets
Weed
Garfield
Twenties inspired kitten heels when they were selling them in Chinatown for $10
Rockabilly
80’s Brat Pack Novel’s
Hiding in the cool shadows of libraries, hot-boxing bugs, hiking over green hills rolling into empty wooded meadows that recede into gravel lots, getting lost, loosing my mind, sucking your dick in the tall grass of The Valley, the city spread before us, one memory at a time.

I QUIT

so basically i suck at this and its way too stressful to be like hanging out with friends then all of a sudden be like, "wait man, let me capture this awesomeness on film!" not even film though, like let me capture this awesomeness on digital. uggh. after about a week everybody started to cringe when i pulled out the camera. i started to feel like a total leper loser.
im a writer not a photographer, besides my journal the one i WRITE in using my HAND and a PEN was getting jealous.
basically my life is amazing and im pretty much a cool peep. in fact if you light me on fire i get all warm and gooey like a marshmallow should.
so take heed world, the next time you see me is gonna be on the streets.
good night and goodwill.

If I had a thousand dollars to spend on whatever.





hypnotism
thrift store (out of the closet) shopping spree
plane tix
new diggi
pay justin to make my website
enough money to buy a coffee at gimme iced coffee right now
I think thats it, i think i spent all the money. I'm having brunch with lisa on Saturday, maybe i'll ask her for a loan. dig this ancient picture of us, she's always been more productive than I am.
Also, while were on the subject of Lisa, I should just say, this is her and she is the most talented beautiful kindest hardest working person I know and deserves all the success she gets. She's like a ghost though, she blows in and out with the seasons, literally, she is so busy and so hard working. There's a reason she has gotten as far as she has. But to me shes always the girl in Busters wearing a funny newsboy hat with a a small rooster pinned to it. No one, NO ONE!!!!!! has more natural style than leeses pieces. whatever you're wearing she wore it in highschool and you don't even know youre wearing it because of her, cos shes not i told you so like that. unlike me. Since Diggi's broke i thought id give a little shout out to leeses.
venacavanyc.com Buy her clothes! Cos you might have a thousand dollars!
