Enjoy the silence

Nothing happened to me today. Nothing happens to me every day these days.

Lost week (end)

I took a week off ... a week to find myself ... time to face my demons and meditate on life and love and loss. A week of soul-searching. An introspective week free of the burdens of everyday life where I could finally strip my soul bare and discover the raw, burgeoning passion that drives me towards eternity.

Oh what a dull week I just had.

Progress

This picture isn’t finished, but neither is the sitter, so I guess it is 100% done for today.

Congratulations to all the people of North Korea. I know it hurts right now, but trust me, you’ll be feeling much better by next xmas.

Life is hell

Every time I decide to get a haircut my hair looks great, then I change my mind and decide not to get a haircut.

Love and hate

They say after you have a child your testosterone level goes down … I believe it. Fortunately, there’s still so much to build it back up … so many assholes … so many vaginas … so many stupid, stupid people … so many beautiful, gorgeous people.

Much ado about nothing

I always desperately wanted to be gay. Freddie Mercury optimized glorious humanity to me. Then Prince and David Bowie abated my disappointment in my nature, and it was okay to be straight … with a little twist.

As I grow up, I feel a desperate need to remember what drove me to excess … what inspired me to greatness. As the birth of my daughter approaches, I feel the need to try harder … to be larger than life … to be majestic.

Bring it on

So, the woman formerly known as baby (TWFKAB) is heavily pregnant … it’s a girl. As anyone knows, the best thing about having a child is naming it. So far, my suggestions have all been rejected … Jezebel, Rosie, Nene, Queen Mary, Fabulous. I had ideas of having a boy (names lined up are: Elvis, Jesus, Johnny) … teaching him how to fish, how to throw a baseball, how to treat girls … truth is … I have no idea … I have 3 months left to become financially secure, responsible, caring, capable, somewhat slightly less self-absorbed.
