hashtag bullet post.

Sometimes I have a million and fourteen thoughts running through my head but I still feel like I have writers block. That is me right now except it is a million and forty four thoughts. I don’t feel like I could write a post on ONE THING and stick to that ONE THING. Where would I start?

  • Since finding out that my parents are getting divorced I have danced around in a bodysuit, dressed seriously bad, busted my mom out of Bali on a mostly covert mission starring stealth moves only, been given the best ever ‘no skanks allowed’, the long edition NOT the ‘clam slam’ robe from the airport in Denpasar Bali, ASIA to be exact. It is so huge I have been pretending I am a boxer whilst wearing it, #parentsdivorce scary YouTube video coming soon set to Eye of the Tiger, Survivor OR S&G The Boxer. I’m not SAD yet. I am mostly hyper.  It is easier to picture them apart than I thought it would be. Or it might be that my dad is sitting pretty in Bali probably ordering in Balinese whores and my mother is stuck in freezing cold Toronto with her mother. Who knows? AND I cut my hair AND I have been eating A LOT of peanut butter cookies. OH and I have been smoking joints like they are cigarettes. Note to self = must for serious stop that last part. BUT almost everyone I have told that to has said I WOULD BE TOO, so it makes it harder to stop.

worst outfit ever. i win.

the boxer.

press my head.

  • I read The Reader, Bernhard Schlink in some ridiculously fast amount of time that made me feel like a fast reader for the duration of the book, my eyes flew across the prose so beautiful that when I compare it to other novels I have loved before I am reminded of The Road, Cormac McCarthy and how it not only remains one of my favourite books but it left me wanting more, and I love a book that I can praise for many a reason, but it leaving me wanting more is probably up there with my favourite things about stories and their inescapable endings.  I am looking forward to writing more Books vs Movie posts.
  • Although in all reality the computer being as broken as it is SUCKS the ONLY good thing is that the Media Player is also broken so it isn’t counting how many times I have listened to the new Neko Case album Middle Cyclone. I am seriously thinking over one hundred times by now because I don’t just know the words I know the correct words to the songs. See, I have Scrobbling enabled on Last.fm most of the time and I already have a gross disparity between Neko Case number of listens = 4,618 and Tool coming in a distant second = 1,020 and I’ve been listening to Tool since 1996, kinda freaky in a freaky way that the Neko count is actually low but that brings me to my review, which I can write very quickly for you right here in two words: FUCKING AWESOME. Waiting with a “glacier’s patience” for it paid off.  We have tickets for the June show already but I messed up and bought the tickets in American dollars and I haven’t told Adam, hey babe, sorry bout that, see you on the couch. But we would rather give the money to things set up by her people anyway.

The Pharaohs - good song.

  • I was randomly thinking how I like being able to look at a photo of myself that you can see my arms in and know what year it was taken in from the tattoos. I also haven’t been able to stop thinking about getting a new tattoo; I mean this is a HUGE life change. #parentsdivorce
  • I wasn’t going to mention this but I will because not only do I enjoy laughing at myself sometimes annoying my own self can have the same affect. So like, more than two point five years ago when I joined Twitter I had it running through my Facebook as my status updates right like that is nothing new people do it, but I stopped because I go through phases like NOW (give me a break please my parents are GETTING A  D.I.V.O.R.C.E, Tammy Wynette style, #parentsdivorce) where I talk a lot and didn’t want to annoy people, but now that Facebook is trying to become Twitter, I do now again have my status updates running through there because that is what they want right? They want Twitter; I’ll give em Twitter alright. Currently listening to Neko Case.
  • All I will say right now is that it is really ODD to be almost 32 years old [LESS than three months away] and have parents married more than 39 years going their separate ways #parentsdivorce. We have all gone to our corners, I haven’t heard from my mom since she left for YYZ and I haven’t heard from my dad in a few weeks now.  I’m still set on marinate, information overload, over stimulation, snap dragon mode.

    Thank you for this post. My parents are going through a divorce as well and they have been together for quite some time. Im not really sure how I should deal with it being an adult and all.
    Thank god for weed. Without it I would have been dead over 10 years ago.

    Ill say hi if I ever see you around Vancouver.

    Whoa whoa whoa – I totally don’t get Adam’s comment re: Garth Hudson. Did he play on her album? Wha? Wha?

    I would lose it if I saw him live. Like a girl stuck in the 60s or something. Who is in love with ‘that older guy’ in The Band.

  • Charlene

    Love your new haircut. You look great. Every time I see your pictures from the hood I recognize things and places. I lived at 1660 Barclay for 9 years. Now I’m west of Denman on Comox but frequently walk by those tennis courts as I have friends in the 1600 block. If you ever want to go for coffee, send me a message.

  • Spockette

  • Rhonda

    Love the Hair!

  • http://blog.mojavemusic.ca paul

    that’s awesome you remember what year you got each tattoo! i can’t even guess what year most of mine were, other than the new ones, and those too will fade as memories faster than the tattoos fade. except one tattoo, because it’s the only one that means anything.

  • Liz Grady

    mmmmpeanut butter cookies are yummy…especially when dipped in milk ;)

    I had no idea that Twitter had been around for 5 years. I thought it was something that was around 1.5 years or so. The Man still won’t let me delete my account, which is lame IMO.

    Oh, and stay easy-peasy with yourself on the ‘kids’ thing, it’s all good girl, it keeps you sane and in the PB cookies mode….

  • http://gusgreeper.com gusgreeper

    well that makes three of us i <3 Maynard James Keenan. Neko Case is so awesome. OMFG. but get this adam totally didn’t like Tool but he had to go with me to the concert for safety reasons cause of my headaches and now he is in love with Tool. true story.

    that is basically why im running my updates through it again – in fruitless protest.

  • http://tawcan.wordpress.com Tawcan

    Tool is my favourite band too. Haven’t heard Neko Case before I’ll certainly have to give that a listen.

    Yea I don’t feel too hot about this new Facebook layout. I mean, Facebook was never meant to be the same as Twitter. For me, Facebook is more checking up on friends and see what they’re up to, organize events, and checking out pics. Twitter is more like “in the moment” chat type of social media. Some ppl might disagree with me but that’s how I see it.

  • http://gusgreeper.com gusgreeper

    heh thanks on the pretty. :)

    i noticed in one of your posts one day that you were wearing a Tool t-shirt.
    i have only seen them live once because of my headaches and holy shit was it worth it. it was love at first listen in 96. i love the keenan. oh and the pot.
