I am aware. I am aware that life is "hard." I, infact, prefer it that way. But walmart and witholding these things just makes me want to sleep till closing time. No, I wouldn't shut the world out. I wouldn't mind a visitor. But the comfort of a comforter is just that.

Dear Midnight train tracks,

Basking in your redlamp glow dares my sense.

Love,

leaves



I have never seriously considered a tattoo untill today. I stumbled across an artist who's got a style completly on is own not a tribal band in sight. Annnd he just recently set up shop in Montreal. Exciting. One day maybe I will go there and get a Yann Black tattoo. maybe.





I'm exiting hermitville as of today and would like to make a public apology to all those who I couldn't bother dropping a line to. You alll mean alot to me and now that everyone is moving on, up and out I went into hiding to ignore it all. blah blah mushy



I borrowed a trumpet from a friend and am attempting to reteach myself. I'm not sure how the neighbourhood feels about that. Its reallly old and dented and falling apart. But if gives it character. Plusss it is fun to take picures with. blah blah superegolove me. I forgot how sore your lips get though. And i'm not sure if it is good for my jaw wich has been hurting/clicking lately. I'm going to the dentist about that tommorow. Thats right I am actually going to a medical professional to deal with a problem. I figure its got to do with my face so I should probably deal with that right?




The northland construction is going well. It's an unbelievable experiance building ahouse. you should try it some time.

I am a power pussy.

2.5 hour 90's singalong right out of a summertime blockbuster. I am on a vacation in suburbia. I have realized i could be a housewife after 10 days of fixin' lunch for the framing crew. Yeah we kick it old style. I return some time within the next few days. people are flying off soon and I need to see them before they run away from here. Many memories were made this week. I'm going to miss watching that red moon rise. Water water water. I feel odd not being near it.

Coffe Date

Brad Pitt walked by doing a jig and Lulu sat and told me how he stole the Eiffel tower.
I made a joke she didn't get.
It would be awkward if the girl on the other side of the glass heard.

Brad Pitt walked by scratching his head and he made me want to cry.
The blue arrows turnedthe wrong way.
Turned green and I remembered.

We were zombies in the street
and I leave too many messages on your phone.

Brad Pitt walked by and I'm glad he can't see me anymore.
True story.



All I did today was eat jam sandwiches on white white bread, fold laundry and watch old movies on tv.
I wore a mumu and felt like i should be on marriedd with children or a dumb cheesey hopeless sit com.

Distant Ships

This man on the bus was insane. He wasn't talking to me but I was evesdropping on his conversation with this girl he clearly just met. If she wasn't on the bus I probably would have been her. Anyway first he's talking about trying to get his british passport because of being from some island that used to be under britsh rule but is not any longer hasn't been for awhile and how he was on his way to the library to find out ways to like out smart the government into this. Then he lapses into how terrible the transit system is but was really complaining about taxis when they are private not public. He got to his stop and picked up 50 million bags of empty cans and left. The girl looked like she was going to kill herself. I hope he dosn't think England is a better place just because it somewhere else.

and thats why I don't drive cars.

I spent all weekend building a boardwalk and a beach and looking at weird bugs and intermitandly dancing to braodway music on the boat. Did you know the guy who wrote "Escape" like the pina colada song ... IF YOU LIKE PINA COLADA'S AND GETTING LOST IN THE RAIN... yeah that one. Well yeah he wrote two musicals. Also the original lyrics were "If you like Humphrey Bogart and getting lost in the rain." But he changed that an hour before he recorded. He would probably have nothing if he didn't change those lyrics.

How hard would it be to become a xylophone player in a jazz band?
(11:13:35) anna - A-BOOT: i dunno if there is jazz xylophone
(11:13:42) anna - A-BOOT: id imagine its something like jazz vibes
Or whatever it is that sounds like some kind of metal instrument you hit with a mallet....... That is my new true calling and I will become z-list famous after meeting some semi-royal annoying british man and be able to write stupid childrens books just because.
