3/5/02 Son of Hungover and Bipolar
Do you wanna touch me there? So said nasty old Gary Glitter, the man who put the bang in gang, and so says I. Been a while. Sorry. As Joe says, I gets so tied boss. This Beckley shit is NOT working out. TOO much time getting to and from, too little time sleeping, too little energy for the important shit. Geraldine, we need to talk about how you worked your unemployment, cos I'm about there. Shame, too, I really like the office and the people working there. As far as important shit goes, this girlfriend thing may fizzle out before it really gets started. For those who're interested, it's Erin Peters who used to work in the Beckley office. Geri, I'm sure you know her, Kathy, she may have come along after you left, I'm not sure. She's a lovely girl, that very rare combination of looks, brains, and personality, but our schedules aren't really working out too well to where I can see a lot of her. We're having dinner Thursday, but we haven't been able to hook up on a weekend (where all the action is) yet. I've never been known for the length of my (ahem) patience, but I'm trying to hang in there, because I really do like her a lot, and she seems to like the hell out of me, but if so, then FUCK YOUR DAMN JOB AND SPEND TIME WITH BILL! It'll pay better in the long run, believe me. What's Bill listening too? Well, on Dave's recommendation, how about some Iron Butterfly? Don't you dare fucking laugh, and don't even TRY to tell me "In-A-Gadda-da-Vida" is a joke song, it's a killer song, great fucking riff taken way too far. That's a good CD, but I actually prefer the two before that, Heavy and Ball. Heavy's got their great first single "Possession/Unconscious Power" and the fantastic "Iron Butterfly Theme". Always wanted to write a theme for the bands I was in, but never could get past, "Here we come, walking down the street . . . " Ball also has some good stuff, IB were more organy than some of the other guitar/keys bands of the time- the organ player ran the band, so there you go, and their guitar player was more wirey than crunchy (these are official musical terms) but I find them VERY listenable, and you should too. A thumbs up to Dave for his suggestion. And by the way, big boy, I am absolutely up for some trout fishing next month. We also need to go down to Joe's, throw some road kill in the water behind his dock, and do some catfishing over it. He don't care. A big Hung and Bi (actually, I'm getting less and less comfortable with that abbreviation) hello to Big Daddy Pain, who's joining us tonight. BD, I'll try to send you the rest of the issues you missed, tried to the other night and they all came back. Also tried to send something to Joe last night, it came back. E-mail Mister fucking Postmaster says unable to deliver message. I fucking hate computers. Had a Movie Club at the house Saturday, what a fucking GREAT time, at least for me. If you guys had half as much fun as me, you had a shitload. And I think you did, Sarah had some friends spending the night, she told me next day they kept saying "They all must be high, listen to how they're laughing in there." Not high per se, but we drank a shitload, we did, those of us drinking, of some good beers, Sierra Nevada Porter, Bass Pale Ale, Beck's Dark, Heineken, and some Labatt's Blue. I am truly blessed with some bizarro weirdass friends- and all of you not Movie Clubbers, you're bizarre and weirdass too, and I love every damn one of ya (except the guys- that bi is just short for bipolar, okay?) Thanks again to all of you who prayed or had a good thought for my dad, his colonoscopy went well. They did find an enormous mass up there, but it was only his head, which I could have told them would be there (it's hereditary). They also found one small polyp (isn't that one of those words that looks and sound exactly like what it is?) which they took out, he goes in Friday to get the results, but it looks pretty good right now. Making it a short one this time, scared to type up a whole skein of stuff only to have it come flying back in my face, NON-D. Bring me the head of Yuri Gagarin Bill
