i finished kathryn harrison’s the binding chair this morning and i should get back to the richard brautigan but it is national masturbation month so i’m starting aqua erotica edited by mary anne mohanraj instead. it’s a formula one sunday so i’ve been up since 7:30 watching the spanish grand prix.

what is it about depression and horniness. i seemed to have risen out of my funk, but now i’m incrdedibly horny. masturbation is a relief but it that’s about it. there is no joy in it anymore. and i’m orally fixated and there is really no substitute for that is there.

i’m supposed to go to a birthday party tonight but i’m wondering have i already partied too much on friday and do i need to go and see all these happy couples?

i’ve just made an observation watching F1, a lot of the ads are for hair loss products. i understand the car ads, the new porsche SUV (more on that in a minute) ads for upcoming stuff on the channel, but what are they saying, F1 fans are a bunch of middle aged guys who are losing their hair?

which brings me to the porsche SUV, what is the market for that? what is the point of it? as if there aren’t enough status symbols in the world do we need this? or i could just be jealous that i can’t afford one? what’s next a ferarri family sedan?

recovering

i didn’t stay in last night, my ex wife encouraged me to get out of the house and to come to a gig her bf was playing. (side note: in between all the drinking i did hear him play and he’s quite talented. he started the set with some cover tunes but then finished with a set of originals.) it was mostly to prevent me from staying at home and drinking alone (which is always a bad sign), so i went out and drank, drank myself fucking stupid. 2 jack daniels & coke, 4 southern comfort & sprite, 2 beers and the shot of tequila that was the final nail in the coffin.

somehow i managed to stagger home and collapse into bed. i’d never experienced a hangover before today… oh my god, i swore i’d never drink again but we know how long these promises last. i’ll probably never drink to excess again.

which brings me to another point, is it just me, but if you’re drinking with friends, aren’t you the least bit concerned about how they’re getting home? i lurched away from a table full of people and no one seemed the least concerned how i was getting home, not a peep.

anyway i got home and i recovered…

recovered enough to go see x2, as a matter of fact. which was great, had a blast, i loved it. actually planning on going to see it again.

so in a nutshell was my day. i’m still battling the after effects of that massive bout of drinking so i’m going to get something to eat, put my feet and watch spiderman on tv

a day late…

i would have posted last night after my wonderful day, but the server was down, apparently technical difficulties abound. everywhere.

so yesterday i went to see a client in the morning and he stiffed me, not completely but we’ll see how long he takes to pay off the balance on his account.

but that wasn’t the important part of the day i spent all afternoon and some of the night in the company of friends i went to k & l’s 3rd anniversary luncheon and beach lime. congrats guys. it was great, the food was good, the shit talk was good, the company was great and i hadn’t been to the beach so long. it was beautiful, the water was cold (ideal in this heat) and i sat and watched the sun set from the beach and lay there and watched the stars come out one by one. there is a beauty to starlight that we miss in our well lit homes. sigh. all in all it was rejuventating. i felt a sense that all was right in the world.

which brings us to today. i’m still on the high from yesterday, i’m hoping that it holds (if not i’ve got half a bottle of my good friend jack to keep my bouyant) i’m still fighting the cold and now i’m dealing with all the insects bites that i got last night. so i’ve spent most of the day, lazing about, watching mind numbing tv, i should be doing something productive, but you what, i don’t feel like.

tomorrow school reopens here meaning that getting to and from work is going to be that much more difficult, but tomorrow is another day, i’m off to watch disney channel’s kim possible, i’ll be back later if anything of interest comes up, otherwise see you tomorrow.

not the best way to wake up… i have a headache and my chest hurts from all this coughing and as much as i’d like to sit around and watch samauri jack and kids wb this morning i have to go see a client.

but my afternoon should be great, i’m going to the anniversary lunch of a gay couple i know and then we’re off to the beach. i haven’t been to the beach in a really long time, which is really sad for someone living on a tropical island, but thems the breaks really.

until later i bid you all a fond farewell

btw yesterday (friday), there were an amazing (revised final tally) 71 visitors, all i can say is wow, thank you for coming.

nina simone, jazz great and source of comfort died today. i didn’t know her personally, but her music, has been a part of my life for a long time.

in the last 3 months two of my musical icons have moved on, never to utter another note.

farewell to you both, andre tanker and nina simone.

thank you for the music.

day 14

i have come to the conclusion after staying home for the last four days, i truly am antisocial, i have no desire to go out and interact with people. i was supposed to go to a wedding yesterday and i just didn’t, i have no valid excuse, i just stayed in, slept the afternoon away. today is another one of those days, i realise how much i missed my daily routine…

is full time employment for me? if i get this job, even with better pay, am i going to be happy?

i miss watching charmed and er in the morning, i had a schedule…

what is really need i think is a raison d’etre, a focus for my energies. something to justify my existence.

in other news, i’ve been watching a lot of television, sometimes it’s just on as background noise and i can only conclude that people will do anything for 15 minutes of fame (like i should talk…).

when will the insanity of reality tv come to an end. how much more personal humiliation will people go through?
here is my idea for the survivor series… put them somewhere really remote like antartica and when they get voted off, let them find their way back to civilisation.

now that would be some much more entertaining… 🙂 and all these former celebrities (and i use the term loosely) put all of them in a pit and let them battle it out. one hit wonders, former tv stars, b movie actors, talk show hosts, former reality show contestants, everybody, into the pit and battle for your 15 minutes of fame. last person standing gets the 15 minutes of all their competitors at the end of the allotted time, the disappear, never to be heard of again.

obviously i have too much time on my hands or i’m just too bitter. or a combination of the two.

welcome oh welcome to our little play…

another scorcher of a day here, and another day of abject laziness, the only reason i’m up this early, is that there is formula one on tv. i’m a fan and that does not, according to a friend, make me eurotrash.

it’s been an interesting season so far and even without the accidents, today’s race was pretty exciting.

i’ll be back later with more interesting and informative comments on life in the tropics.

adieu.

day ten

my first drunk post. not stinkingly drunk, just mildly ineberated…

a couple of observations…
the moon is full, and beautiful

and if you’re bisexual and you’re sitting on the fence there is always something hard between your legs…

ponder on that for a moment.

i had a great time tonight, kisses to k, gen, simone, niam and all the other people who were sharing that lone air conditioning duct. looking forward to doing this again.

the letter for today is V, blah, blah, blah…

vagina, virgin, vestial, vestibule, very, vary, vargries, vacancy, vagrant, vulva, varicose, vend, victory, vice, vowel, voracious, vent, venice, vocal, voice, village, verily, veto, vote, van, vantage, vile, verge…

not a bad list for someone who should be in bed sleeping…

i have working in the morning (later), not just showing up for working mind you, a number of designs for a presentation that need to be finished before the long weekend…

another thought…

bisexuality is the best of all worlds…

happy birthday K.

another day, another dollar, well a few cents at least. i’m hanging out with my friend K tonight, it’s her birthday and we’re going to party like it’s her birthday.

should be interesting to say the least, she’s a member of the cult of sappho (figure it out your damn self) and we’re going to one of her fave hangouts.

does it matter that i have work in the morning? Oh hell No! i need this evening out. i’m just barely hanging on.

he he. too much star trek.

in further geek news… the matrix reloaded opens a month from today.

anyway back to smallville.

a fond adieu to you all.
