disorderly sleeping.

I've suffered from one sleep disorder to the next for about 8 years or so. Until recently, I've mostly always claimed victim to insomnia. Nowadays, I tend to fall asleep whenever I sit down, lay down, anytime, anywhere. I can't get through 15 minutes of a television show, or movie... After I finish a meal, I'm out like a light. I'd like to say I've transitioned from an insomniac to a narcoleptic. (Laughing, crying, talking in my sleep included)



After seeing these videos, its good to know; I'm not alone in the "disfunctional sleeper" department.

Also...

What better reason (other than family and best friends) to make a trip home to the great Northwest? 3 days of Music, Camping, Comedians, and friends! yeayuh.

and it won't be blistering hot like Coachella..Or Lollapolooza for that matter.

47 Days to go.

....This year, I plan to make it through all 3 days without going to the E.R.

friday night

It's friday.
9:27 pm.
iTunes Paused.
TV Off.

My ears are fully committed to my neighbors. With my windows open I can hear them ever so clearly. My female neighbor is always singing/playing her music. But tonight, She's invited a male friend over and his voice not only has molded perfectly with hers, but has swept her voice and the melody it carries; off it's feet to another level.

At this point, I find myself very close to walk up there knock on the door. Just to hang, sit, and listen. Right now, as I type they've just stopped and are laughing and dinking around with chords, deciding what to play next.

I hope, I think, they are in love.
I am in love with the fact of them possibility being in love. I can almost feel their chemistry through my window.

Whoever wants to come over next friday and eavesdrop on this musical goodness is welcome, just give me an advanced warning, because (of course) my apartment is a pigs sty.

to let you in, I'd say the female is- Cat Power, meets Jewel, Meets Zooey Deschanel. The guy.... Mason Jennnings meets M. Ward. Meets.......something sexy.

live

"The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware." - Henry Miller

look both ways

I got hit by a moving vehicle today. I was running to runyon canyon (following my run I always hike up to the top). I was crossing the cross walk at the appropriate time for pedestrians to cross. The man wouldn't notice me; that was until I beat the living shit out of his car with my fists and Nike's.

watch out for pedestrians, they may fight back.

The Kills

This album came out about a year ago, and I haven't gotten sick of it yet. Yeah, I've put it to rest for a few weeks or months at a time. But Whenever I dust off the ol' album and give it a spin, it's like an old friend meeting up where you left off. This song never ceases to get my body movin' and a shakin. It oozes sex appeal to me without being skanky or trashy.

and the video's pretty cool and weird. Which means if it was a dude, I would date it.




...tell me you don't love it.
