number 410 razor vans

they hurt like crazy. it doesn't matter if they have been worn in, and hurt even more if they have been worn in NOT on your foot. why why why do they hurt soooo much, until they have belonged to you and stink like never before, and then are the most comforting shoe you could ever own.

i wore my new old razor vans on a long walk like an idiot. blisters...none, but the pain...RAZORS. then i laughed uncontrollably at a stranger who was doing the same razor vans walk as i was doing a couple of hours prior. sorry stranger hip man who i laughed really loud at for walking funny...i was just feeling your pain.

number 408 birthday shuuuush

when you go to a birthday dinner and you are told to sshhh, really it doesn't work. not with these people and especially not when someone in my family made those amazing acrylic circular sound capturing rings.

number 407 redfern irene

right now, changing a flight and leaving La Zawadas, to just encounter some drizzle seems pretty stupid. people boarding up their shops and taping their windows also seems kind of dramatic when there has not even been a flash of lightning...yet...mass purchasing of supplies and the only shop open with a queue around the corner was the deli on mulberry street. so i fell into the trap...all of a sudden i felt like maybe i better join in on this if i want to eat before monday. there is no one in new york. irene sure isn't here.

i can see my old house from my window and the humidity is just the same. i'm not allowed to have any parties...'Please also not walls and floors are thin and you should use caution with noise. There are to be no parties or loud music during your stay there. We have long term tenants and do not want anyone to be bothered.' got it.

so right now, there is nothing to do except stay in and wait...and play my music softer than the rain.

number 404 tequila used to be a good thing

i once lived in new york. i had friend that liked to have fun. and i liked to have fun also. we would drink tequila and then st germain, and then more tequila. i remember drinking lots and lots of small glasses and feeling flexible, but i always wondered why my friend was more flexible than me...once we went to a place called the box. we had been asleep, and i got a text message from down the hall saying 'what are you doing?' and i responded 'well i was kind of sleeping'...'meet you in the kitchen in half'...so in the snow, we went out our door 2 steps around the corner, and into the theater. it was fun. legs swung from the rafters and you drank anyones booze. we saw a man with boobs and a chainsaw, pull a Popsicle out of his ass...and then we decided we were hungry. i tried my hardest to make my friend not eat the green mushroom pizza from the deli on the corner...but there was no stopping her.

tonight we drank tequlia. there were no popsicle's - but there was a hell of a lot of word slurring.

number 403 Dan and the giant church

big show up for As Gallery...i was stupid and didn't snap the impressive lightbox on the way in. you know you're in business when you got a damn good lightbox - but something was pulling me right in to that space of holy. the crowd was there. young, old, bold, all the kinds you want at your initial gig.

bb kept getting angry at me for walking off when she was talking her head off in conversations i was invisible in, but she cooled it after she punched me on the bottom in the dark room that everyone was like 'have you been in there??!!!'. the church pews were amazing and miss millie told us a totally believable story that the guy who now owns the place is going to build a pod suspended above the pews for him and his daughter to live in. sounds pretty children of god to me...but anyone that has intentions of owning a pod has something going on.

the show was really amazing. i kept saying to the artist, 'it's like your wedding!' i'm sure he got what i meant. then we talked about moving back to new york after i had told him a million times how amazing it was...it was.

nice work you 2...the show was amazing. big shoes to fill who ever is up next.
