hysterical and useless
another late nite in, Z came to town.
we went through all his wedding pictures i took that he hadn’t seen and WOOF was i fat, thanks for telling me you guys!
they made a significant dent in the charity beers.
cid and i retired earlier, not by much though.
we think cid’s metabolism is on the fritz, i guess i should stop sharing all my meats with him, yesterday it was leftover ribs. he also has a fondness for cheese.
clothes mountain depresses me so.
new little speakers, pretty fucking grand, goin’ to change our lives this summer at the beach, i am looking forward to fighting over song choices with fil so hard. and wearing my supermarket dress, that’s basically all my brain can fit in it right now, supermarket dress and summer.
liam is playing at the el mo tonite, i hate that place, whatever, we’re all going to support the l’il duder, so if you want to come hang or stare at me from a dark corner of the room while i’m at the bar being bitchy and irritable come out, it’s only 5 bucks.
lover’s spit
here’s a few excerpts from an article what a journalism student did on your hero recently:
The lone bartender detaches herself from the bar, where two men are singing drunkenly, comes over to the table, and asks if anything’s needed. White orders a vodka soda, and squeezes the lemon slice before dunking it in her drink. The Flaming Lips’ “Do You Realize?” pounds over the speakers, and White has to lean and yell to be heard. White writes many beginnings of fictional stories, but hardly finishes them, she says. One story she did finish, called “I Like The Crazy Girl,” was put up on her blog and later printed in “Marketable Depression.” The thousand-word story is about an autistic girl named Melinda. “I incorporated from my memory some character traits in an autistic character in a Baby-Sitters Club book,” she says. “It’s kind of beautiful, the way you visualize the crazy girl. She wears crazy dresses and it’s sort of charming, but she can’t access her beauty because she’s fucked.”
White views her blog as a vital launching pad to something next – she mentions that the “something” may be TV, acting, writing another book, or a movie based on the Raymi persona, which she says she has already been working on. “Even when I don’t want attention, I want people to view me under a microscope,” she says. Of her blog, she says, “I undersell it. Eight years, and it’s transcended what other people think of blogs. It’s an online journal, it’s artistic bullshit, I document my entire life.” Wilen quips, before going out of the bar for a smoke, “it’s sometimes risqué, sometimes ordinary, but interesting. You’re going into someone’s head, with anyone’s blog.” Wilen then gets up and lights her cigarette on the Jameson candle flame. White makes a funny face at her.
“Knowing her, and reading her blog, I’m sometimes surprised. I forget she’s as good a writer as she is,” says Phil. Phil has known White since 2004, when they met in Oakville, Ont. White In her memoir, White writes, “in many ways he has saved my life.” Inside Ted’s, White responds to Phil’s compliment, “You should tell me that. Sometimes I need…” then she pats herself on the back.
White says she’s succeeded because “people are starved for meaning. Blogging is a saviour these days.” Though she says blogging is “a little of everything and a lot about nothing,” she hopes to be remembered for being funny and inspiring, for making people “feel okay about being depressed” and letting them know that “there are good things in this world, more colours than just the colour grey.” Near the ending of her memoir, she writes, “I’m that someone who is forever going to be something someday and that’s what my something is. You know how everyone has a something, well mine is that girl who is going to be something, maybe nothing, but maybe something.”
oh hai it’s me at barely 21
“velvet revolver, AS IF slash and scott weiland and others that’s awesome. i guess slash finally parted his hair to the side, looked around and realised fuck man, i should be in a better band. eat shit g&r.”

Phil: yes
i watched that wind what whatevers the barley movie last nite, fil passed out 2/3 through, i had to keep’er movin’ though, how does this depressing piece of shit end!?!? is what i was thinking, so i stayed up til after 1, so i’m tired now, is what i’m sayin’.
Dearest Raymi,
I just read what that 50 year old dickhead said criticizing you on your look.
When I was trying to get a modelling agency I was told more than once to get a nose job. One place wanted me to “go out” with the owner to try and convince him to put the money up for me. My crazy parents were really critical of me and told me that my nose was too wide for my face, so I’ve always been self conscience of it. I’m really glad I never had any work done. People want everyone to look the fucking same, just like everyone else they see in magazines who have gotten nose jobs and look exactly like one another.
You look amazing, don’t listen to anyone. I love your bangs.
xxxxxxxxxxooooooooo
-D
i could care less what people think of my nose anymore, i like it, in public out at bars i get hit on a lot (with their minds) and stared at, no one gives a shit about my nose in the real world, it’s the internet trolls who have been addicted to my blog for years, everyday pouring over my pictures. when fil first got his dslr camera he started photo-shopping, eventually, i told fil, no more doing my face (specifically my nose), unless the dark circles under my eyes are extra dark then go to town by all means, but no more fiddling around with my nose, he never really did but sometimes in photoshop if you start work on one thing it can affect the other part of the face. so that’s why i ask him hey did you do anything on my face, no? then why do i look like michael jackson? oh that’s because of the face i’m making, check. i have a rubber face, it oft’ looks different in every photo, and big deal, say it with me people, BIG DEAL, BIG FUCKING DEAL. my nose was the target of ridicule throughout my entire elementary school career, i was the smart intellectual cool kid, who was brave and fought for the underdog, so of course i stood out, i was tall and skinny and i had a big nose, and now all these fucking losers are on my facebooks and barely any of them grew into their noses at all, and actually come to think of it, the ones who gave me the most shit for my nose are the ones with the ugliest noses themselves.
all this over a nose? what’s everyone’s deal with noses? it’s basically the only target they can come up with. lame.
and that guy wrote back wanting more, i told him to LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE. this all started when he hated on my boots, another hot topic apparently in dildo land, so i banned him, did it end there? jesus. when you’re banned it doesn’t mean that i am a coward, it means that i am SICK of you people, so move on. if i really wanted to invest time and energy in a flame war with you, i would, and i would win, but it isn’t worth the energy, so therefore i cut off the source, ie. you.
in summation, if i wanted to look like everybody else, i would look like everybody else. keep that in mind the next time you have a comment about my boots, hair, outfit, nose, shoes, jacket, etc etc.
oh and ps. my pics are never photoshopped, i do not possess the photoshop skills or even the photoshop on my laptop.
happy birthday britt!
feedburber
there are 357 of you guys subscribing to my feed, it is the second time since switching this bloggeroo around that i have logged in to check up on that, both times i wrote in the url field feedburBer.com.
both times it made me feel like feeding myself a burger, then burgers, then boogers, then booger from revenge of the nerds.
that’s all.
OR IS IT??????????
it’s exactly this sorta train of thought that’s like well, can’t top that funny, may as well start drinking now.
but i won’t even though there are a jillion brews and other assorted booze and beezes in the fridge. the only mouth party i’ve signed myself up for currently is some spinach with marble cheese grated on top. look out golden girls!
hey maybe i’ll upload a picture of it how about that?
aw i wish i framed these in that heart or flowers thing my camera has then i could put GLAMOUR SHOTS BY RAYMI in the bottom corner.
i want to wear my new yellow dress tonite but i feel fat and crampy and it’s raining. britt’s bday dinner is tonite, i have to get her a necklace, i’m gonna go to one of those hippie’d out stores on bloor on our way to get a cab.
