had a wonderful night, actually went to bed at a reasonable hour, i’ve written some outlines for the screenplay (yay, me) and i realised i have been lax in keeping you abreast of my reading habits, since i finished the binding chair, i’m still reading the brautigan (i have to take that in stages), i’ve also (re)stared zadie smith’s the autograph man, how to be good – nick hornby and cecilia tan’s black feathers, i finished auqa erotica which was lovely. i also read two pulp novels. 

i feel good this morning. rested, ready to take on the world. i have a good deal of work to, i have a poster to design, another campaign for presentation plus i also need to find a junior artist this week, so all told, i think my time online is going to be somewhat limited. 

i’m even going to get off the machine and go bathe and get to work on time. 

before i go here are some links to get you through the morning or possibly the day: 

very funny comic 

jane’s sex guide (a nice comprehensive reference) 

gaps in bush tax cut 

time to get going. adieu.

adversity into opportunity

May 28, 2003 — Leave a comment

vic and i have decided that our current entertainments are worthy of the big screen. we are attempting to write a comedic screenplay about our adventures.

if you get a little perspective on our situation it does seems a little funny.

neither of us actually has actually written a screenplay (well vic has done documentary work and i’ve attempted documentary work) and this is going to be our first combined endeavour. i think it’s going to be fun. work begins this weekend. vic is off to the wilds of michigan with the familia for a week, so i’m planning on channelling the anger, the frustration, the lonliness of the next couple of days into a serious stab at our very entertaining story.

the time has come to get some sleep. too many late nights over the last couple of days. although i should unpack the three bags full of laundry, but there is the feel of slipping on a still hot, fresh smelling tshirt. ok so i’m a freak (and fucking lazy too)

gnight.

there was something i saw last night but i can’t remember what it was, but as soon as i do, it will be here. and as promised my rain poem, titled funnily enough – rain

rain 
come rain beat your timeless tattoo on my skin. caress my warm dark skin with your millions of cool, tiny fingers entice me with the pungent aroma you release lull me, compose me with the drumbeat that is sometimes gentle or staccato but most of all rain love me.

i’ll be back in a few mintues with news from my personal bureaucratic hell

day ten

April 16, 2003 — Leave a comment

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…

knock yourself out, try to ignore the assholes and find something positive to focus on today.

we’ll see how well that works for me…

day eight

April 15, 2003 — Leave a comment

well this has been a 50 | 50 day, my job still sucks, but i just sent one of my best freelance pieces on it’s way to turkey. it’s beautifully printed.

so i’m pretty much cruising this evening. satisfaction comes in the simplest of sources sometimes.

in other news, i was listening to the radio in a taxi on the way home, and it was tuned to one of the religious stations and a pastor who shall be hereafter called ‘moreover’ rant about what a bunch of adulterous heathens all of us people who divorced and remarried but the kicker was about the woman’s role. basically, if your husband is beating you, stick around, it’s your biblical role to take some blows. i was in too good a mood to flip out, smack the taxi driver and demand he change that station.

which brings me to the question of the day, do people actually believe this? what sort of god would condone this?

this rant is brought to you by the letter M, used in words like magnificent, married, moral, mighty, moron, morose, munch, mental, mince, monday, meeting, mandate, more…

thank you and good night.

day seven

April 14, 2003 — Leave a comment

this blog is brought to you today by the letter: G

‘G’ is the first letter in the words: generous, giving, gregarious, gracious, gargantuan, gothic, galvanise, gather, goad, gore, gonad, glorious, glowing, gay, gray, grain, genius.

nothing like mental stimuli to get the day started, please feel free to contribute you words. if i don’t find a way to keep myself entertained, i’ll hate myself even more for going to this crappy job.

do you have any idea what it feels like to look at you pay cheque and laugh hysterically. i’m obviously not cut out for this, i hope i hear something from that other interview soon, i’m unchallenged and making money i could make freelance in less than 8 hours.

this sucks, not in a good way, but with teeth and the fumblings of an unwilling teenager.

i owe, i owe, so it’s off to work i go…
