IGG today is a special day,
a binary anniversary.

hope you guys enjoy the day to come.
we only have another two of these_days in this decade and indeed this century, 111111 and 121212.
seeing as these are the last two we will see (unless we live to a RIPE old ages) then i think we should appreciate the numerical_aesthetic of it all.

tomorrow_time tomorrow_time
notme Tomorrow time, tomorrow time
Morning's here, sounds so clear
Birds are singing, music's ringing
Sitting on the floor, can't stay awake no more
It's tomorrow time, tomorrow time

Oh, what's your story, morning_glory
Sun-shadows fall all against my wall
Just my room and me and morning, that makes three
It's tomorrow time, tomorrow time

Oh, here so soon, afternoon
With half-closed eyes, I see the skies
Sun is shining still, it'll keep on shining till
Tomorrow time, tomorrow time

personal_and_impersonal personal_and_impersonal
amy nada you'd think that there are a lot of options, but maybe there are only a few. others will often use the personal against you, and you, in your defense, will use an impersonal justification. which is all well and good and right, though maybe they could stand to be a little less of a cadre of jerks. 100419

hsg Come On The Trail Of Song
Eda Lou Walton

Come on the trail of song,
Leaving no footprints there,
Over the rainbow bridge
Down the mountain stair.

Come on the trail of song,
Gods of the Navajo,
Out of the sky-land
And the five worlds below.

girl_jane Somebody was telling me the other day about one of the scariest haunted houses they've been to for Halloween. In this particular one, there was a room that was all white with large polka dots on the walls.

When you walk in, they shut the door behind you...all you see are polka dots.

THEN!

A little midget that's been standing against the wall in a polka dot suit with his face painted polka dot jumps out and screams, "POLKA DOTS!"

That would be fucking creepy... 031118

ME to help YOU?



you can't be fucking serious. you didn't want my help eight months ago. let me be clear. i don't like you. i come to see your band because i really love and care about paul and am supporting him.

i am good at the violin because i have been playing for 17 years. i had a private teacher for 12 of those years. 6 of THOSE years where spent in music school and i have been a teacher for the past year and a half so i guess if you look at it that way i should be good at it.

if you want to be good at the violin practice EVERY day and get a teacher. 080218

hollywood_material_baby birdmad so last night i ge hollywood_material_baby birdmad so last night i get ditched at the bus stop by a driver who truly comes across as a load his mother should have swallowed.

Tired from a long and frustrating day, i go of on a tear, cussing and ranting as i light my cigarette

camouflaged amongst all the ghetto detritus, from somewhere behid the bus stop near the trash can, comes a drunken, gay schizophrenic, mixing a few things that sounded like words of wisdom with the insensate ravings of someone fucked up beyond ercognition

"don't let those negative people like that driver get to you, don't let 'em rent space in your mind, they don't have what you have and that makes 'em mad, they're jealous, that's how i got here, i let it get to me, i'm hollywood material, baby, i got a multi-million dollar idea"

un-self-consciously pulling a slicker brush meant for a dog from its package in the window-washer's bucket he was carrying and running it through his hair

"i design things, i organize things, i can make a house grow, i had two swimming pools in my back-yard, a big party with a poker game at one patio table and dominoes on the other, you look like you should either be a rockstar or a bodyguard if you were in hollywood, i know gothic, you know, sometimes i'm gothic, sometimes i use white magic but sometimes i use black magic and when i need to i know the recipes, but i don't tell anybody stuff like that, i just make sure not to let some peopole rent space in my mind, you know, i finally learned it."

dragging the slicker brush through his hair to nearly no effect, lending only some slight semblance of neatness to the slightly lopsided rooster-crest of dark brown hair on his head.

catching a whiff of my cigarette smoke he starts again after gesticulating slightly and aimlessly at passers by and at no-one in particular

"What's that? Hmmm...smells expensive, reminds me of parties i used to go to, good cigars and rum and brandy and people out by the swimming pool with movies on the big tv in the living room and everything"

i give him one of my cigarettes, a Djarum Black and light him up, he talks quiety and indistinctly for a while to people aren't there, gesturing conversationally as if ihe was sitting at a restaurant table among friends rather than nest to a stranger at a bus stop bench

"yeah they might come and take us to jail but if they did we'd stick together, i'd walk up to you or you walk up to me and say 'hey, what's up?' and it would be like that because we're Hollywood material, you know?"

my friend the strip-club DJ comes to the stop and is perplexed by the strings of conversation flowing out of my odd little acquaintance, short, squat, dark skinned but with an accent that is hard to pinpoint as being chicano or being someone off "the rez"
his voice was high and his mannerisms were incongruously effeminate for how gruff the little man looked, crossing, switching and un-crossing his legs as he smoked the cigarette

"Don't worry, she'll come back, that's the thing about beautiful women, you can't let them be too sure, you have to act like you don't give a shit sometimes to keep them interested, i used to get pussy for free but now i'm losing my touch, can't get too possessive, got to give them some freedom, but don't worry, she'll be back, if she's the right one"

so much for that perception, but now who is he talking to

the nextbus came and i got on, along with my friend, the DJ, and drove me off into the night, but as i watched, he went on, talking to no one.

he seemed happy enough, though.

strangely, i envied him at least a little bit of that dysfunction that left him immune to the perceptions of passers-by 041006 ... Piso Mojado this story followed me around for a couple days after reading it- thank you. 041017 ... three words hollywood_material_baby famous overanalyzing 050317 ... HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that's_how_it_was_always_meant_to_be
kidblink We were sitting on the couch, and Jaime moved, and I said "Looks like it's just you and me" and he said "That's how it was always meant to be." What does that mean for me, for us, for the future? Is that a promise, a hope, or a disillusionment? Can anyone tell me what I should do? 041018

brand_new_blather_blue_book IGG well guys i have been on blather_red and here for some time now, and seen the creation of the blather_red_book and read of the loss of the blather_blue_book and it has set me thinking.

if you have not seen the red book, you should check out the pictures here
http://www.flickr.com/photos/blatherredbook/4623094761/in/set-72157624099175776/

it is a collection of thoughts, words, pictures, collages and clippings from skites worldwide and it is a beautiful thing.

i am sure i am not alone in thinking that maybe it is time for a blue book once more, as the system in place in red has worked to have both a physical and virtual copy of the book.

this means everyone can access the book to see how it is progressing, and skites add their names to a list if they want to contribute, sending their addresses to the last person who had it, or to the skite posting the pics on the internet (jane on red).

if any of you skites are interested, which i am sure some of you would be,
then i am going to buy a book and start it off, then update pictures on a flickr account so everyone can see.
if the book can be sent back to me after every few skites have contributed, i can put the pics up in the same way so there is an up-to-date virtual copy, which should prevent the book getting lost, but if it does means that it still exists on the web.

what do you guys think? let me know if you are up for it, and add your names to this blathe.
