Current mood: calm
Category: Blogging
woke up. touched my naked girl. watched her sleep. listened to her breath. snore. thougth about my head and how it hurt. wanted a cigarette. did not have one. got out of bed. grabbed my clothes and changed in the living roomate as not to wake said girl. walked around in a circle in the living room. made coffee. ate bagel (cinnamon raisain) checked email. checked it again. no email. did not mind. watched the news. watched the news some more. there is nothing new. not minding that fact that there is nothing new. read the book of hebrews. thought about god. how i feel him even though its hard to believe in him. its hard to believe. but we persist. some times thats just the way it is. sometimes you just end up in a situation and you deal with it. and its never the way you plan it. but it happens and you can't remember the decision making process that got you from A to B and you don't want to account for the process cause it gives you a fucking headache. so thats that. you just get out of bed. i got out of bed. and i wanted to smoke. but i did not. i don't know why. i don't care if i die. but i think said girl does, so thats okay with me. i'll not smoke for her. i guess thats okay. sometimes i think that i would be better if she had some bad habit to make me feel better. but then i know that that would not be okay. that would be bad. and its not just the bible that says that. everyone sane says that. anyone who makes sense believes that. i think. so you just get out of bed. i got out of bed and i had a headache and i wanted to smoke but i didn't. and thats probably okay. maybe i will one day. maybe i won't. i don't really care. i just like the naked body. its way better than cigarettes. perhaps cigarettes come second to naked bodies sometimes. but naked is way better. it is always better. i think god can give me a big-up on that one. lets all big-up to naked bodies. and love. and if you can't. well smoke motherfucker. smoke! enjoy it for all of us who cannot. and i will enjoy the naked girl. and i will deal with my headaches someother way.

getting home
okay. i'm home now. ran into my non-crush-crush on the street. couldn't speak. which was fine. checked the hockey score. made a voo-doo dool for all members of the calgary flames. listened to sugar. listened to bob mould. listened to husker du. thought about moving to minnesota. thought againt my first thought. wore all black today. thought about cutting my hair in order to get a girlfriend. got an email from ex-girlfriend who is getting married. that was weird. wrote two blogs because i realized that i didn't have enough. and i realized that if clayton is the only one who writes blogs than those are the only blogs being read and that is a shame. now clayton is my best friend, but he is also a narcicist while i am a sweet, apostolic type boy who only looks on the bright side of life. had a hangover. watched 'the family guy' movie. hated it. thought about grace kelly. wrote a love song about a girl named jennifer. have a sisted named jennifer. thought about how that might be creepy. realized that it is creepy, but with a little explaination it won't be creepy any more. okay. bye.

remember thy miracle...
joetory | Mon, 2006-02-13 14:27
fortunately for most i have not shared on this medium for quite sometime. it has been difficult to keep the machinations of the band well greased when its founding fathers live on opposite sides of the world. one can imagine how easy it was for all those wives during wwii to drop thier collective knickers at a moments breath after doug, the local mechanic with flat feet, made a pass.
loneliness dear universe, i'm talking about sheer loneliness.
so i've been thinking lately about how easy to is to forget the miracle of inspiration. do i create a space where originality is bookended by structure and odds? or should the pursuit reflect a purer expedition that relys on universals squeezed out of particulars at arbitrary intervals? never knowing; always expecting.

a very tory christmas
joetory | Fri, 2005-12-23 22:04
yulel tide is upon us again and the tories find themselves once again in that age old predicament. sam in on one side of the world and joe is on the other. jon is somewhere inbetween but for now we'll say he's on the moon. as a christmas present to all our enduring fans we have decided not to do any shows or write any songs or practice material for at least a month. this will give joe enough time to sell his body to science experiments in order to afford a new disortion pedel and sam enough time to figure out which canadian will marry him in order to enjoy the rights of 'peace, order and good government' that canadians pine for. so in a nut shell. the torys this christmas will be doing what they do best, mainly a whole lot of nothing. to which you may heap your aura praise on them now and in the new year.

I'm sick of my band...
joetory | Wed, 2005-12-07 10:18
i'm realing getting tired of playing in a band. 95% of the time i'm actually thinking about or doing something in conjuction with the band i'm not engaged in any form of music making whatsoever. i'm not engaged and i'm not interested. i'm only interested in the ideas of fame and fortune and the fact that at the end of our tether as a funtioning creative unit we may one day not have to pay for drugs or sex and pure freedom and happiness will supplant our pathetic, boring predictable existence. playing a band is too much work. if i have any advice for those aspiring artist, choose a medium that is inexpensive and relatively anonymous, such as writing mystery novels or knitting. in the end creative expression is inevitable to the human condition, but then again, so is evacuating our bowels.
