dan fitzpatrick and greg decided it would be totally manly to puncture beers with pens and chug them. they invited myke, but gave him a screw driver which everyone decided was a bad idea and a significant disadvantage. they were really both too drunk for this to be necessary or appropriate, but they did it anyways. greg is blurry because he is starting to throw up. dan finished.

so instead of listening to music, the house full of drunks watched flight of the concords. myke had never seen it.

myke on a byke says he looks bad in pictures. i dont think so really. he invited me over to his friends house. right behind him is where his band practices. they wouldnt play last night because they said they were too drunk. i think that is the best way to tell if you are ready for the big time. you gotta be able to play drunk.

light pollution

this is the parking lot of work, or rather the sky above it. i like the way the lights look in the fog, especially when the trees all around have no leaves. doesnt it kind of seem like there are stars close enough to touch? maybe gravity doesnt work when it's too cold.

i have a class, stigma and prejudice, in fine arts building c. on my first day of class i was walking to the bus stop and saw this installation (?) outside. i am assuming it is an installation because, you know, coming out of stigma and prejudice i should think only art students can be somewhat unfitting or unpredicable. *bang*

lacking a visual

i did not take a photo yesterday. the day was far too heavy for a single image. today i will interpret those feelings and make something reflecting my feelings. for now, i will describe the feelings and let the imagination draw the image.

angry words, disappointment, anxiety, early goodbyes, intoxication, jealousy you could cut with a knife.

there was smoke framing unfamiliar faces, heavy and fragrant with cinnamon and spice. it was dark with a pair of fires burning into the early morning. there were both friends and nemeses. it was crowded with emotion, bodies, and music bringing the two into a pattern of ebb and flow. back and forth, back and forth with the unpredictability of nature of things and animals.

and then it exploded with passion. uncontrollable, unknowable, misunderstood and searching...yearning.

i found my goldfish dead when i returned home after dancing. i didnt know what to say for him. it took me by surprise because male beta splendor (aka ariel) is the one who is struggling. maybe sam had it too easy and so life became meaningless. either way now it feels like i am peeing on him whenever i use the toilet.

yesterday was so cold it snowed in melbourne and when i smiled my lip split wide open. i actually had a drop of blood. these bubbles are not adaptable to sudden weather changes.

Amber and I were out to coffee when I remembered I had a ticket to the basketball game. We went after our java and tried to buy one for her, but the ticketing window was already closed because it was into the second half. This man came out with his little girl and asked us if we wanted his tickets. Turns out he had front row seats! We were right there and exuberantly cheering. I have officially started my career as the basketball team's biggest fan this season!
