today (is the latest)
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.

Canada in Afghanistan (Support our Troops!)
Current mood: geeky

heard some old codger beak off about canada's role in afghanistan last night and i found myself, once again, barking explitives at the television regarding his opposition to the mission. i mean fuck. what does my stupid opinion count for? or his? or anybody's? seriously. what does it count for that i'm spitting my spaghetti at the screen thinking that maybe somebody is listening. to be fair, gillian was listening, but only in a--oh honey your so cute when your angry but i'm busy making lunches for tomorrow--sort of way. she has come (i believe) to terms with my ranting and raveing about contentious issues in the news. i'm not a journalist. i'm not an expert. i'm not anything.

the problem with being a news junkie is that my appetite is created by the same substance that fuels the vacuum of addiction in the first place--a void. so what is this emptiness that needs to be filled? why smoking and drinking and prime-time teen dramas? why drugs and sex and daily pitchfork approved rock and roll? why blogs and songs and falling in love? why tears and fears and things that make me jeer? why? why? why?

i think i need religion again. i read my bible this morning for the first time in a century. and not in a post-ironic literary cool methodology. but rather, to be curt--honestly and introspective. sort of reflective of the status of the universe. imagine that: irony free bible reading. is it possible? is there any other way to read it? is there any other form of literary prowess? i can't answer this. i can't answer this. and neither can you. sorry blog. you are not enough. you will not fill this void. i have stood on the cusp of nihilism for too long with too many friends to know that none of us have directions in backing up. so i'm backing the fuck up myself. i have to. i have to get off this train. i don't belong here. i don't know where it going and i don't know when its stopping, but its speeding up and i have to get off. i don't belong here. even if i wind up alone. in my wifebeater and boxers. drinking beer and yelling at a blank screen cause i haven't paid my cable bill in a year. i'm free. i'm free where i belong. in my senseless pontifications about the status of world morality. supporting my troops. curmudgeonly stating the truth alone. cause i'm getting older and one day i'll run into a cbc news crew too and i'll be damned if i don't give them a piece of my mind.

godspeed,

joseph

the autodidact goes home
Current mood: hot

august started something like this:

"hello august! i'm so happy your here. i'm glad i get to spend you on an entire month of:

1) shitty job

2) absence of girlfriend

3) absence of best friend.

Wow. i'm so happy. Yippe!" then. WAM! BANG! SPLAT!

i broken arm.

darn. now i have to spend the rest of my summer not working shitty job, being taken care of by my awesome girlfiriend. true. best friend is still away but, in a way i don't really need him. i mean, he was only my best friend because he made my shitty job, an awesome job.

just kidding clay k. you know goddamn well that your my bestest goddamn friend in the goddamn universe.

geez. your so sensitive.

anyhow. 2/3 is better than 0/3 which was what my august was shaping up to be. now? well, just as dates where awesome and saturdays where awesome i now propose that august now be awesome as well. loose the use of a limb for a month and see what the gods have in store. bliss, i say, bliss.

thats that. now: sitting in childhood home. listening to my dad play slide guitar. thinking about the blind-boys of alabama. saw them last night. in live concert. sort of awesome. fucking frighteningly fantastic. best part was how fat-blind-boy to the left looked like a country bear from disneyland until he sang.

i found jesus.

then i lost him again 'cause i gone an' done too man'ee a them there drugz ya see. and now i'm lost again. sort of perpetually lost in the refrain to amazing grace. something about being lost and then..., i'm not sure what happens next. but listening to the blind boys sing that refrain to the tune of house of the rising sun made me really want to be black and old and fat and blind. then i heard the fat one to the left say, 'the chickens die, so that i may live.' and then i almost pissed myself all over the fancy pew they have in the fancy church i was in.

that was that. came home. drank tea. smoked cloves. read friedman. dreamt of life as a yuppee. a blind, fat, black yuppee from chilliwack. i have so much more to learn.

godspeed,

joseph

life is pretty life sometimes
Current mood: blank

when i was a child i hated the rain. it made me sick to my stomach and very depressed. i used to want to live in southern california where its sunny everyday. this was my life plan. move to california and just be warm always.

then i discovered nirvana. the catharsis that came from that music, and from the subsequent progression of my musical tastes and opinion, acted as a wall between me and my original dream. which was to be warm. nirvana taught me that my life grief was tolerable (and perhaps even enjoyable) when aligned with particular forms of musicological experiences.

today i opened the blinds to see if it was sunny. i do this everyday now. i stopped for a long time. one summer after being fired from my job i stayed inside for two months straight. well fuck that.

i'm chopping off my ears and moving to san deigo.

godspeed,

joseph

profile views: 666
Current mood: fine

thats right folks. sort of creepy and sort of sweet. my profile views officially reached 666 today and thats my news.

got drunk last night and watched munich. applied for mossad online. thought about my forbidden love. walked around my apartment in circles. thought about god. prayed before i went to sleep.

haven't had a wank in over a week. i must be brimming with cum.

woke up. drank a coffee. smoked my last cigarette. loathing work. looking forward to the arrival of sam (my drummer) fell asleep to modest mouse. woke up and cursed god for my existence. then asked for forgiveness. walked around my apartment some more. made my bed. lay in it some more. played some guitar and broke my last g-string (that joke never gets old for me). played my new banjo that my dad gave me. framed a picture of my dead father. walked around some more. thought about my forbidden love. thought about killing myself. thought about my dad framing a picture of his dead son. fell asleep. woke up again. thought about quiting my job again. wrote some lyrics for my new song. ripped them up and threw them in the trash. found a flap of coke in my pocket after swearing i would never do drugs again. kept the drugs. walked around the house thinking about the drugs. wondered if i would ever stop doing drugs. wondered if i would ever fall in love. wondered if they are sort of the same thing. said another prayer.

amen,

brother joseph

fuck the dead dog, listen to my song
Current mood: slightly overwhelmed

so last night was pretty fun. got drunk at work. went to 'setlist' at shine. skated home drunk and yelled a whole lotta obscenities at a whole lotta nothing. so that was fun. then danny and i did some drugs and sat around listening to 'stone roses' which is brit-pops answer to stoner rock.

i was thinking lately about the first, and only, lap dance i have ever had. it was in australia and the girl looked exactly like a cousin of mine. now i'm convinced that the whole incest thing is way to over exposed and if you think about it we are all just brothers and sisters in the lord and whatever happens happens. right? i realize that that may sound creepy, and i can say for a fact that i will never hook-up with any of my relatives, save a nuclear disaster and it is left up to me to re-populate the planet. or something like that. so that was my first, and only, lap-dance.

listening to zeppelin I. drinking pabst blue ribbon. the best beer in the whole wide world. watching MTV canada which licks ass. eating kraft dinner. waiting for a ride to rehearsal. still working on a name for trevors band. ideas thus far have been: coquette, friends with benefits, kiss and tell, the genetic method...etc... so nothing is set in stone. i met the lead singer, so thats good. now i hope she doesn't suck.

saw my friend michelle and was transfixed by her tragic beauty. sigh. thats that.

godspeed,

joseph

feeling like a million bucks

ok. things are great i suppose. i got a little drunk at hapa izakiya. then made moves on some cute japanese. that was pretty fun and great i suppose. its much funnier to be slightly drunk at a restaurant while its closing and your brother is dating one of the servers. thats up there with rock stars staying after hours. so that was pretty fun.

cannot get enought of bums. lately they are the gateway to a womans soul.

tired of tom cruise. like, really tired of him. watched 'a few good men.' almost barfed. but only because i ate bad cannelloni. but seriously, totally, done with tom cruise.

lusted after many girls tonight. went home alone. really used to it and totally, kind of fine with it. smoked hash. discovered the universe. about to start 'the rambo trilogy.' realized that a five movie series is called a quintology. flip-flopped on the issue of same-sex marriages. discovered that the master-race is a cross between jews and asians. called a jewsian, with a dash of eastern-european. happy, fitter, healthier, more productive.

godspeed,

joseph
