creepy yet beautiful

but the thing with something like that is that it seems inherently limiting. how many animals can you do before it becomes boring? gears in stuffed animals, we get it. now what?

in the past two weeks every time i have slept i keep having really cinematic nightmares

EVERY NAP, EVERY NIGHT, EVERY TIME I GO BACK TO SLEEP

1.running away from something, then stumbled into a massive antique furniture/human store. people were buying other humans to put their minds into so they could escape something they weren't fond of in their current lives.

there was also a lot of other stuff that didn't make sense, but it ended with a fat chick with pink hair choosing to die so the rest of the people in the store could live. they braided her hair into a mass of ropes and then burned her alive.

2. yesterday
a lot of psychobabble, exciting car chase, kicking ass with sub-machine guns, only to find a charred, dying stump of a corpse on my drive way with his skull half sticking out, begging me to finish him off.

3. walking a bridge with nails driving into the bottom of my feet. someone abandons a kid ahead of me, and i walk the rest of the bridge holding the damn thing while the added weight pushes my feet deeper into nails.

4. i come in to the lab to run an experiment, my fish dies, gets eaten by a giant slimy lizard who fills up the entire experimental tank with goo before moving onto all of my other fish and eating them.

5. in a crowded metro, trying to take out a crazy transdimensional shape shifter that NOBODY NOTICES EXCEPT ME

WTF BRAIN

lord, send me a mechanic if I'm not beyond repair

guys there are good songs about the bible and there are bad songs about the bible

AND THEN THERE ARE MOUNTAIN GOATS SONGS ABOUT THE BIBLE

this is to say, this shit transcends all human meaning of good and bad.

amish romance novels

in flames @ CEPSUM

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 16:16:22 GMT

with between the buried and me, protest the hero, killswitch engage

not particularly impressed with protest the hero
but killswitch engage was ridiculous
like just ACTUALLY ridiculous
as in the guitarist was wearing a giant golden cape ridiculous and making dog noises.

but in flames was gr8888

and after the first three songs i got shoved out of the photo pit by burly security dudes
and i proceeded straight to the pit where i got maddd props from burly metal dudes and got covered in their sweat. also lost my glasses like 5 times. and when i was walking out of the show some dude recognized me from the pit and gave me RESPEKKK KNUCKLES. awesome.

they played take this life at the end
but too bad i don't give a shit about come clarity

REVELATION: cannot believe how much nicer staffers are to you when you have a tiny sticker saying "MEDIA". now i don't want to go to a big show unless i have one of those things.

some photos... moar to come.

best thing about being at a giant metal show?
the male to female ratio is like 100 to 1
so if you go outside for a smoke and you don't have a lighter you have 10 strapping metal lads holding a flame to your cigarette and they are impressed if you punch them back while also possessing a vagina

STRANGE

so tired

Wed, 26 Aug 2009 16:22:43 GMT

the most sleep i've had since last friday is 5 hours.
the lack of sleep was due to jimi leaving (thus lots of last minute traveling and partying) and tania & george visiting then soon leaving, so it wasn't really for sad terrible reasons but still

I AM EXHAUSTED

also now i have a new obsession: BANANAGRAMS

google that shit

i am at work right now waiting on my DEPC water but i'm gonna go home soon because my brain don't function no mores. also because i have to finish shit up for the ghost show, which opens this FRIDAY in TORONTO. you guys should go there and make me feel awkward about existing because i guess that is what all social interactions with strangers are like for me. then i'll be in toronto until sunday afternoon, and i'm back for another photoshoot that following monday, plus classes.

...

motherfucker.

where did the summer go?

anyway, selection of photos from quebec city

another shoot

Wed, 05 Aug 2009 15:41:37 GMT

rarrr.
i had a shoot yesterday and have another one coming up on friday.
the one yesterday was okay but by the end i felt really fucking sick for some reason.

maybe my body is rebelling against my urge to buy that sweet sweet prada dress. BUT IT MUST BE MINE. for the good of the humanity and also because i have no interview clothes.

but i just ordered ROMANIAN NAMES on vinyl. sexy, sexy vinyl.
can't wait!

fuuuuuuuuuuuuu-
back to work.
