How the Fuck?!
How do you leave a fucking Stradavarius cello made in the fucking 1600s outside on your porch? Someone BETTER BE FIRED for this.

I’m reading the reviews of Coachella from OC Weekly and LA Weekly. Apparently my assumption was correct: the only reason to go was to see the Pixies. It looks like they put on a timeless performance there. Now the question is whether paying $60 and braving a day in 100+degree heat is worth seeing an hour of the Pixies. For some people that would be a yes. For me, no. I barely have the motivation to pay $20 to see an act like Blonde Redhead play in Hollywood.
Anyhow, I’m currently downloading the new Sonic Youth album. I’ve only listened to “Unmade Bed”, and it’s all right. I don’t think one can say it’s the return of Sonic Youth to their hey-day. *shrugs* Of course I’ll buy it because… Well I have every other “proper” album they’ve done.
Last night, I got me some sleep! I cancelled all plans I had, hopped into bed and did absolutely nothing productive.
Right now, I would kill for a day off. I know I could take a sick day, but I tend to be addicted to work. For some reason, I don’t feel right taking a day off of work. Even when I’m sick, I always make it a point to come to work. They can send me home if they must.
Anyhow, I will be in Santa Barbara Friday night. Yes skick, I will spend the night. Unless feralboy wants to hang out Saturday night, I probably won’t be in any hurry to return to LA (although I have tons of shit to do). I do need to be here Sunday for Mothers Day.
I might make a post with something deep. I have things I need to get off of my chest. It might even be one of those rare “friends only” posts.

Driving to Coffee Cartel on Sunday. I’m merely 3 miles away from the ocean and this is the temperature reading I get. It was a motherfucking hot day.
Experiment in Deprivation
Z? Motherfuckers!
Anyhow, I haven’t collapsed yet from not sleeping. I’m taking that as a good sign. Although I think I will try and make it to bed by 9 say. Ha! Good fucking luck on that one.
Um. I was going to make a meaningful post, but I forgot what I was going to say. Whatever.
One of These Days I’m Going to Sleep
Just not any time soon.
I went to the library downtown. I swear that place is evil. Each time I tell myself that I will not check out anything. I ended up checking out 3 books.
On top of this, I’m still reading that book about the rise and fall of Napster. Ugh. Why do I do this to myself? I guess I’ll do some hardcore reading when I have the time. The question is when.
I had some time to kill before meeting lotusblossom for dinner, so I sat in the little park next to the library and read. I took some pictures of the place which I’ll post when I get some time on my computer. I never ventured downtown in the past because there really was no reason for me to be there. But once I started going to the Smell, I noticed how great it could be. So I’m in love with the place now. Hehehe.
That and Silverlake. lotusblossom and I had dinner at the Kitchen which is right next to Akbar. I ordered their fried chicken. The best part about it is that they use boneless chicken breast! Yum!
feralboy. I hope today is a better day for you.
Now That I Have a Moment to Breathe…
Last night I bought Season 1 of Chappelle’s Show and the new Pixies DVD. Both are great! Since I don’t have cable, these TV DVDs are the greatest things. I don’t have to sit through commercials, and I can watch them whenever I want to. I still need to get Six Feet Under but soon enough.
Also yesterday, I saw Good Bye Lenin in Santa Monica to escape the heat. I loved how the son presents his view of communism to his mother. It is touching and outright hilarious at times.
I was out and about during lunch, and oh my lordee did I melt! Oofta!
