i’m gonna ween myself off of zoloft, first go back to 50mg then 25 then nothing and if i become grossly depressed i will try effexor. zoloft made me gain weight i now realise after discussing this with many crazy bitches who ALL gained weight from it and even a dude and dude’s don’t lie.

we exchanged emails a little while back…
since my initial transmission and response i have come to realize that you are a
bit of a blog celebrity… what is that like?
that doesn’t really require any answer, it was more of a rhetorical, absurd life
position ahoy, question.
absurd in the sense that you seem to be a great voice from some sort of
non-hipster hipster section of society that i am rarely exposed to. excuse the
use of the term hipster. fuck hipsters. non-hipster hipster only has minor
connections to hipsterhood.
regardless, my uninformed stumble upon a few of your works inspired me to start
a blog… i guess i thought it would be a good release. and your wit provided me
with some evidence that not all the people who had blogs were in the generic
douche category.
i would be much obliged if you took a minute to check it out.
not exactly because i am looking for blog celebrity recognition gratification,
but somewhat… it is all so new and EXCITING!!!!!
more because it was a partial influence thing… maybe you will find that cute
or disgusting or nothing. irrelevant.
maniacaldeviant.blogspot.com is the address
and one quick question.
do you try to avoid making yourself the absolute source of your writing
material?
meaning, do you try to stay away from always pulling intricate messages from
your own complex shit?
to disjoint this even more, is it improv based on information you have
synthesized or is it all from the subjective realm of interpretting your own
experience?
that might be one simpler question, but i couldn’t get it together.
good luck with your writing
enjoy the drinking
life is just so real. sweet.

THE CREEPING NOBODIES (CD RELEASE SHOW!)
THE WHARTON TIERS ENSEMBLE
RYVYR
WYRD VISIONS
& DJ CRAIG DUNSMUIR
FRIDAY, JUNE 2ND AT THE HORSESHOE
$8 ADV/$10 DOOR
19+, DOORS AT 9PM
Hello Friends,
Perhaps you have always thought about coming to see the Creeping Nobodies, but kept telling yourself “Oh, I’ll catch the next show. There’s beer here at home and I want to watch the game.” Or perhaps you’ve come before , got really sweaty, and forgot all about the game. At any rate, we have a very special show coming up this Friday, June 2nd at the Horseshoe. It is the CD release show for our new album, Sound of Joy, that’s been two years in the making. We recorded most of it in NYC with Wharton Tiers at Fun City Studios, and it is our great pleasure to announce that his band, The Wharton Tiers Ensemble, will also be performing! For those that don’t know, Tiers has recorded and produced bands such as Sonic Youth, and played drums for the Theoretical Girls (late 70’s NYC no wave). Ryvyr will also be performing, which I am told is a psych band featuring members of Jon Ray and the River. Opening the show will be Wyrd Visions, who also just released an album, which is AMAZING. Craig Dunsmuir will be DJing, and I promise you that the man has excellent taste. Do not sleep on this!
Special advance tickets are available at Rotate This and Soundscapes. The tickets are a limited edition run of microfiche slides. We rip off the stub at the show, and you keep the microfiche as an album insert. If you take it to the library (or anywhere with a microfiche reader), you can view photos, artwork by our friends, notebook pages of lyrics, and more.
See the attached files for a copy of the poster and photo of the ticket!
I hope to see you all there!
fil and i went to see x-men 3 last nite and it was awful, i mean, it was good but still pretty bad and i have never seen so many loners in a theatre before in my life. one guy in front of us was talking and squealing to himself THE ENTIRE TIME. the acting was terrible, the dialogue was cheesy, the outlandish costumes of the rogue punk mutants were embarrassing and right from the beginning of the movie it’s like immediately accepted that mutants and humans live amongst one another but then five minutes later humans are all WE HAVE A MUTANT CURE!
also a cute thing, after EVERY movie fil and i go to see, for the next 24 hours, fil, IS, the, movie. after mission impossible he was like, a spy. last nite he was logan aka wolverine and he does all these superhero poses and pretends to stab me through my chest. then he hid in the dark in the livingroom when we got home and i just walked into the bedroom instead cos i knew he was there, i turned around fast, flicked on the lights and there he was crouching like wolverine with his invisible claws out and cid was sitting beside him just like, sitting there.
so scary.
oh yeah after the credits there is an extra scene, do not bother waiting for it, unless you are stoned or wasted – it will piss you off, it is maybe 15 seconds long and the credits are like 4 minutes long. not worth it. i could just tell you what the scene is now if you want.
couch surfing

nol says:

nol says:

nol says:
