I didn't get much of anything done today.
I did watch Ugly Betty though.

i love that show...

I just bought my first "real" suit (assuming those tattered thrift store shits don't count). The suit I am gonna wear at my wedding! Wow. Holy shit! We spent over 2 grand, which is more than I've spent on clothes in the last 5 years combined. I left the boutique and my hands were shaking. What an experience. I had a "personal shopper" and I am meeting my personal shopper's "custom tailor" tomorrow morning.

While his hands were on my pants, adjusting and pinning, my shopper dude told me I had nice eyes. Haha!

I just know I'm gonna sit in gum the first time I wear this thing!

Sitting at work very hung over.
Just ate a risotto rice and basil cake. Very tasty.
Why did I agree to work on a saturday??
I've already had two rounds of codiene and it hasn't done a thing. Oh man..
My house got absolutely trashed last night but got some awesome photos of drunk Jedi Knights.

Came home from drunken party, realised that I'd forgotten my cigarettes. Anyone that smokes knows that not having cigarettes is...
Anyhow, up on the bike, cycle down to the local 24-hour petrol station. Can't come in door. Catch the eye of the kid behind the counter. He starts waving his arms in the air, like he just don't care. Obviously I have to follow suite. I start some kind of interpretive dance. Door opens. Kid mumbles, "Sorry, the door gets a bit lazy this time of the morning".

Small details like this from everyday life are fairly meaningless, but I think I'll always remember the time time I had to dance my way into the Shell station on Jyllandsgade at four in the morning.

As you were.

I read an article in Guitar World today about the Stooges which was fairly cool...they describe Mr. Albini as the "Federico Fellini of nasty guitar." Heh.

I cleaned my new machines and got them looking really really nice. Trying to find some specs on head alignment for a TEAC 3340, so if anyone can help out with that, just light the way. Need to get the manuals for the machines too.

Planning on doing some record buying tomorrow...can't wait to spend every last bit of money I have!

My wife got a promotion at work today. Now she makes more than me. Waaaaaaaay more. That is awesome. 10 or 20 more grand a year, and I could quit my job and just post here all day!

Spent time in the darkroom making contact sheets from the rolls of film I bought at the flea market last weekend.

Some interesting stuff on there, including photographs of the TV broadcast of Edward R. Murrow interviewing Leonard Bernstein, a roll of film that shows stops in Churchill Downs and Washington, DC, a trip to the zoo, a bunch of drunken musicians, guys on a fishing trip, and a vacation at the beach.

The quality of strage is so great that I am going to make prints of most of them, and incorporate them into my next big project.

I'm alos going to see if I can track some of these people down, but it appears that most of these were from the 50's (judging by the cars and clothing people are wearing) so it is entirely possible some of these people are dead - most of them appear middle aged in the photographs.

I feel like writing to Kodak and telling them that 50-year old Plus-X still holds up great, even when exposed to the elements. That won't make them start making it again, but a girl can dream.

I'm at the local library and I just compiled the amassed writings of Herbert Kornfeld--Accountz Reecievable, bitches) and then printed the 33 pge document three times and they only charged me two bucks.

happy Sa' day

I went out drinking last night...when I woke up this morning I discovered that I had brought home a large paper mache rabbit and a mounted deer's head.

I got woken up today by some bitch showing my apartment to people.
Thank god I had the covers over me.
About 30 minutes later, I was about to beat off, she showed up again.
