Chairman Maominstoat's report on his efforts to listen to the 24hour Throbbing Gristle box set is making me want it even more.
Just took a break at the half-way point. I think I've gone deaf, and my balance seems to have suffered. Hopefully it's just temporary.
Oh yes! Now some frenzied synth arpeggios! It's like Kraftwerk being taken out and shot!
Come on, folks. It's only 180pounds. Please?
Fine. But if I come up with $450 extra bucks in the next few months, that puppy is gonna be mine.

Yes, I've gone mad. I blame it on the climbing, which went very well after the initial panic attack (go me!). Or possibly the giddy happiness.

It's difficult to know exactly what would be the ideal activity to engage in while Throbbing Gristle provide the soundtrack. But I can reveal that shopping in central London is not among them.
24 hours of Throbbing Gristle. Damn. Does somebody want to acquire that box set for me, so I can perform a little experiment of my own?

There's nothing like downing asprin with your coffee in the morning. Ah, sweet bitterness!
The cold came back,
the very next day.
She thought it was a goner
but the cold came back
Cuz it couldn't stay away

Confession: season 7 Buffy is slaying me, and not in a good way. I'm finding the recent episodes to be repetitive, poorly paced and generally kinda dull. But it's not all bad, since it's resulted in:

It's really rather appalling how much one has to spend on photocopying and printer paper when you're no longer just "accessing" those resources at the office.

At some point in the last few days, I've snapped out of the funk that's been dragging for the last couple of months. I celebrated by sniping at deserving targets, sharing giddy secrets with my best gal, splurging on new boots and catching up with good friends.
V organized (as always) a tremendously fun party for the collected b'day boys, replete with silly horse cock conversations and political analysis. Dark Rave was fun; sneaking off with Aleta to Savage was even better. Paul closed out the night with a mix including Sisters of Mercy (Ribbons), Tom Waits (Going Down West), Daft Punk (Around the World), Pop Will Eat Itself (Wise up Sucker), and Aqua (Barbie Girl) that left me doubled over with a side stitch and hysterical laughter.
Highlight of the weekend - bumping into Kaffiene at Insomnia post-Friday film. It's in her honor that this entry is public record. Now email me, damnit, because I lost your addy months ago!

Just came across a clackboard in reviewing film clips that read "Shoot 'em all, let the editor sort 'em out". And karma bites me on the ass once again!
Doing pretty good these days. Getting up the focus to edit is problematic, mainly due to my perfectionism and hyper-awareness of the many flaws in our footage, but it's coming along. Went in for orientation at school this morning, only to discover a couple of things: classes actually start this week, not next, and the group is smaller than expected. Oddly enough, I already know a few people already, including someone I worked with years ago at a new media firm.

Anyone interested in ballet tickets? The National are doing a really interesting cross-section this year, including "The Firebird", Balanchine's "Jewels", Swan Lake, and La Fille Mal Garde, one of my favorites. I'm quite seriously thinking about picking up a season subscription this year. $140 for balcony seating at 6 shows is pretty good, although I could probably live without seeing Elite Syncopations ever again. On top of the decent pricing, it'd be nice to see Rebekah perform. Painful, but nice.

Only a week late, but I finally got confirmation of my admission to the Film Producers program at Centennial. Nine weeks of full-time classes plus ten months of follow-up with a mentor (it's going to be weird to be back in school). Twelve months of living expenses support from the gov't; twelve months to focus on film, writing and funding.
Twelve months of doing what I want to do, without worrying too much about where the rent is coming from.
I'm a very happy camper.

HORSE COCK!
That's what I get for dressing as Eris: the porn conversation that won't stop following me around the party.

As mentioned to noizangel: Ficbitch goodies and the Fan Forum tees, including the lovely "Out for a Walk (Bitch)" and "I have my Hippo dignity". Yee!

[24 Oct 2002|10:25am] |

I'm trying to decide on Halloween costumes and coming up with bupkiss. Can anyone suggest a purple-haired anime character, because I'm drawing a blank. My other options are Malificent (a modification of the Gothzilla outfit from last year, so I can transform between the evil queen and the dragon) or Josie from the Pussycats (requires some sewing and the acquisition of a new wig).

In taking my garbage out tonite, I opened the door (out, not in) on a drag queen peeing on my apartment building's front entrance.
It is a measure of my day that this is far from being the most strange or upsetting thing to have happened. At least it had the benefit of happening outside my head, unlike the rest of the weirdness.

Harry and the Ham
(third story down)
Harry was just your average Erotic Vacuum Cleaner salesman. Ringing doorbells and greeting potential customers with the company slogan of "The Erotic Vacuum Cleaner, it fucks as it sucks!", it was how he earned his living. It was an average job with average pay. And that was good enough for Harry.
And every day Harry came home to his average apartment in his average city of Fuckaduck, Arkansas. He had an average life and average interests. He liked average sports and average foods. There was only one thing that was unusual about Harry and that was his ham fetish.
S/M Ham porn. There's not a lot more one can say about that.
