MORE LIKELY THAN NOT, YOU ARE BORED.



This is a picture of my ceiling. It looks so big but it's really not, I mean there are a lot of better ceilings out there. Think about church ceilings or ceilings in very fancy apartments. Rich people demand a nice mosaic or something very cool to look at when they look up. They always get what they want. Yesterday I called in sick to work, maybe that's why I'm not rich. Today I went to work but I left early because I was feeling sick, is this why I don't have a servant? As I'm updating this I'm reading the Wikipedia article about Jesus. It's very interesting. It's making me wonder if Jesus wants to throw a brick in my face for being gay, maybe Jesus is pissed that I'm talking about him right now. I want Jesus to know that I think he's cool.
I think it's really cool when someone asks you "Can I see your art?" and you say "yes" and you have to go through this process of showing them your art and then they say "I don't get your art" or "why are you doing this?" or they might even say "this is weird" but I think the best response to something like that is to say "I think drawing a picture of a guy wearing a Green Day "Dookie" shirt and standing next to a lawn chair and a palm tree and the caption saying "time to cheese" is really cool, please don't be a jerk." And then they might be very disappointed in you. At that point the best thing to do is draw a picture of that person/those people doing your laundry and washing your dishes. So in a way those people are your servants.

VALENTINE'S DAY

Today is Valentine's Day and I am celebrating by doing laundry and listening to Chromatics, just kidding, I'm just doing that right now. I'm going to a party tonight, what are you doing losers? Just joking, you know how it is.
So life is going pretty good. I am feeling more productive now than I have in a long while. I think I'm in the mood for a new job so I'm going to apply for a nanny job, but thats so up in the air at the moment. I'm doing some flyers for some upcoming shows at The Vera Project which I know isn't that big a deal but it's still going to be fun. I also think I'm going to apply for the music internship there.
Anyways, hopefully everyone's happy on this bullshit corporate holiday...just kidding, kinda.

MISTER ROOM/ROOM GALLERY

I am sitting in my room right now, I can't sleep. I figure it would be a great idea to show you guys some of the art I have up in my room. It was the two year anniversary of Ian living in Seattle today so Sarah, Andrew, Schanen, Casey, and I went to Bauhaus with him and also to Easy Street Music in Queen Anne and I got a Hospitals 12" that sounds very good and then Sarah and I took Ian and Casey home and she dropped me off. I cheesed really hard and watched that movie Homegrown which is very, very bad. Then I got more bored and took these pictures with my camera. Now I'm just listening to the Raincoats and contemplating a shower.








Thank you.
Relax.

p.s.

I also made this video.

OBAMA '08

So yesterday I was feeling kind of under the weather partially because I had gotten about 4 hours of sleep the previous night and partially because perhaps I had too much to drink the previous night and had a hangover, I would like to think that the state I was in was due to the former not the latter, but the truth is, well...

But regardless, I wasn't feeling too well so I decided to take a shower and walk down to my local neighborhood bookstore (Bailey/Coy Books) and pick up the most recent issue of The New Yorker and go to a coffee shop and just sit and try to let the bad air pass and leave my body. While there I read an article discussing the Clinton/Obama run for the Democratic nomination and it made some very good points even though it was vis à vis an ad for yet another supposed politically UNcorrect show starring non other than Americas political bad boy Bill Maher. Oh, the wit this man holds...I'm sure is currently in a folder in the office of his intern, or perhaps secretary. ANYWAYS, the article is by Hendrik Hertzberg and if you're interested you should either go buy a copy of the current New Yorker or go stand in the magazine aisle...I'm sure no one will yell at you, and read it. Aside from being clearly pro-Obama (which I think is fantastic), the articles closing sentence is perhaps it's most powerful.
"Hillary Clinton would make a competent, knowledgeable, and responsible President. Barack Obama just might make a transformative one."



I support Barack Obama, fully. And although I will vote for Hillary if she got the nomination, I will do it pensively.

***The New Yorker article I reference in this post is from the February 11th-18th, 2008 issue.
