sorry liz.
as an "artist," i am sometimes "sensitive" if i suspect "people" get the "wrong idea."

guys totally have tail. it's in the front.

rape is always wrong unless both parties are ok with it.

speaking of rape and teen icons -- has anyone seen Hillary Duff RAPING "Personal Jesus"?

that's right.
she took the beat, bassline and main chorus and melody, and made it her new single "Reach Out."

get this: instead of "Reach out and touch faith," she says: "Reach out and touch me."

if you couldn't guess already, it's about sex.
cuz you know, now is the time in her career when someone decided she had to grow up, so they gave her a song about sex and tarted her up. cuz sex = all grown up.

needless to say, i darn near puked.

incredibly great show


[Choe]

Is up now on the corner of Houston and Bowery. Called OUTSIDERS NY. Supahdoopah cool. go check it out now as it's over this Sunday- everyday noon to 8pm.

For me it was awesome because there was a BUNCH of Dave Choe stuff- including my favorite- this little lady-

couldnt even buy a print tho, as they are $800. :(

There was also a great one he did that has the city on the back of a whale and below it says "Can we fuck at your place tonight mine is a mess." i like the whale.

There's also a lot of Obama stuff- really really good show- two floors- be sure to go into the basement. I'm going to swing by for a second look this Sunday.

an insane thought occured to me today

Those towering towers that are the bane of my not so urbane existence in williamsburg suddenly struck me as beautiful when I thought about living inside one of them.. perhaps facing the river.. and the city.. perhaps they allow doggies..

I have good credit and perhaps there's no money down for first time buyers.
Perhaps I can move in this May and with a pay increase, manage to make my monthly payments. Maybe i'd like to be a yuppie afterall.

anyways, i'm on the agent's interest list now. no turning back from at least taking a tour.


what am i thinking?

fall and elections and nostalgia

When I was dating James we had a movie list. I kept it on a folded up piece of paper in my wallet and took it out when we went to the movie store so we'd know what to get. Neither of us could Ever remember what was on that list if it wasn't in front of us. It was a fun thing to do and we hammered out a lot of movie watching. Unfortunately, we always got stoned as we were watching and I either fell asleep or couldn't remember anything but a loose plot to the film. Fall reminds me of highschool which reminds me of James which reminds me that I miss that time of my life. But it also makes me smile as the crisp air kisses my cheeks and last night I saw my breath for the first time in six months.

I almost don't regret summer's end. I'm smiling about it at any rate.

The other night I had dinner with a friend and then tried to meet some others at a bar to watch the the vice presidential debate. The bar was overflowing and so was every single bar in williamsburg Brooklyn. So I went home. But it was still kind of a cool sight- peering in through steaming bar windows, the streets empty and then crawling into soft bed, under warm bedside light and just crashing like the economy.
