DEBARGE - "All This Love" |
] |
"26 RED" will be an acceptable nickname for me for the next year because: 1. I am now 26 years old 2. i am a red head 3. I like hard alternative stoner clothing
Many confusing things happening in my world at this moment in time. Total Abuse is quite possibly breaking up because we just recorded a new LP that is totally mediocre in my eyes but Rusty is in love with it. How am I not hearing what he's hearing? I've listened to it over and over and over again because he likes it so much but I'm just not getting it. He's threatening to quit if we don't put out the record...which sucks big time because we are about to go on tour starting July 6th! I wouldn't feel fully bummed if the record comes out, but it's just not our strongest stuff. We have so much more potential but we rushed writing and recording a new record.. I feel like he just wants out of the band anyway (for reasons unknown to me) and is just looking for an excuse to get out. I guess I'll have to wait it out and see... :(
Need to get a JOB! TO-FUCKING-MORROW! Hopefully one that "totally rocks"! I've been completely spoiled the past year and a half. I've had the luxury of staying up as late as I want, waking up at my leisure... It's time to get in gear!
On a happy note: I played a show last Saturday with THE SNEEZES for the 1st time in many years! AND IT "ROCKED"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We went fully buck wild, ripping up 6 bibles, drinking weird chemicals out of a douche bag( I will never do this again...it was insanely yucky! haha), roller skated, deer smashed, spray-painted my face with black halloween hairspray and fukkking JAMMED OUT. PSYCHOHOLIC FREAKOUT WHITE ZOMBIE STYLE!!!!!!!!! We wrote a new song called DEFECATOR. Here are the lyrics! "Red blood cells but who's buying? This is for the DEFECATOR!"
DEEP. DARK. TERRIBLE.
I started The Sneeze(s) when I was 19...and boyyyyyyyy are the lyrics questionable!!!!!!!!! Here are a few notable excerpts: 1. "I have the brain of a guitar smasher" 2. "I wanna wanna wanna wanna wanaa wanna wanna wanna wanna veal shake!" 3. "Ouija board... conjure me. When you're bored...CONJURE ME!" 4. "I am an incubating dinosaur hatcher" 5. "Race to the raisin muffin" 6. "Jump off a cloud into a cow" 7. "1-2-3-4 COWWWWWWWWW!" "1-2-3-4 Prairie house death night!" "1-2-3-4 big bail of hay rolling down!" "1-2-3-4 let Bob Villa die! Bob Villa" 8. "Bake a kid until it's dead yeah" 9. "VOMITUS!" 10. "Oh magic weed come save me from straight-edge!" 11. "A-E-I-O-U and sometime Y!" 12. "4 little babies and biscuits and gravy" 13. "I can't sleep with the lights out" 14. "In the park I'll let my nose bleed!" 15. "I was smoking weed with Jesus Christ and we were j!@#ing off"
Line 15 being the most regrettable! Haha.
How have y'all been?!!? I'm pretty much completely out of touch with the wide world of Livejournal.com! I need to catch up.

This song truly cannot be contained within cultural boundaries.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS A BAYING HELL HOUND ON THE ROOF. INTENSE/PERSISTENT GROWLING ECHOES THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.
 Does anyone have a spell book or an amulet or a BAZOOKA that could possibly aid in the warding off/killing this evil demon thing? I NEED A FEARLESS MONSTER TERMINATOR OVER HERE IMMEDIATELY!

 My snack consumption has been OUT OF HAND lately. Icecream (chocolate chip cookie cough), Sunkist, Doritos, donuts, pizza, cheese dip, bean dip, Reese's peanut butter cups, Tofutti cuties...people, the list goes on.
It seems like I should be gaining hundreds of pounds but I'm just not! Awesome! It's definitely not awesome that i've been scarfing so much. Junk = Death! Why do i continue to consume what I knowww is detrimental to my health?!?! I dont' want to end up being a sedentary little blob... irritable unless I gorge on sweets!!!! Specifically soda.
I honestly drink enough soda to keep Sunkist in business. It's actually quite insane/mind boggling. I spend at least 50 dollars a month on this orange nectar of the gods. This definitely needs to change. Immediately! Tonight, even! Too much caffeine means having high blood pressure and an over-stimulated central nervous system. And I don't like the idea of drinking so much of something that has enough acid to strip paint and melt slugs!
Tomorrow... water will be my only thirst quencher. PROMISE.

I FEEL THAT IT IS MY MORAL OBLIGATION TO DOCUMENT RUSTY'S WILD MUSHROOM ADVENTURE TONIGHT, SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO: ------------------------------------------------------- -laughing/giggling wildly for minutes at a time -spilling water on himself -looking up "trippy shit" on youtube -waving a hammer around -zoning out to slowdive
(most of this took place laying back in a recliner)
memorable quotes: "I want to burrow in the grass and stay there forever." "I just cooked this food that looked like green death." "Green light is coming from a picture of a purple skull." "I can't even text message!" "That yellow bike looks like its a fucking thing." "I wish everyone was on shrooms and not HACKING OUT." "That light is like a saucer of sorts." "Anthony looks like a black michael j. fox minus the parkinsons." "God, get a nose job! Your nose is too big you bitch!" "I'm having like a crazy body high." "Oh yeah! Eat that little ball of poop." "Ooh imagine that going straight into your cock." "It feels just like a wave of good vibes all around you. woo woo woooo.."

well, this truly goes without saying, but ICELAND IS THE BOMBBBBBBB!!!!!!!!! god damn! i just had one of the wildest(!) nights of my life playing shows and dancing until 6am. i saw finally saw deerhoof and yep, they are great. when i got picked up from the airport by iceland airwaves coordinators, i rode in a tour bus with deerhoof and of montreal! i was a total nervous fan boy! but the guitar player from deerhoof came to our big show and he was like "that fucking ruled!!!!" of montreal are a strange/uncomfortable blend of glam and barf these days. people went wild for them, but they were terrrrrrrrible. the lead singer wore super tight pants, no shirt, and gold michael myers mask and was rubbing all over himself. NAUSEATING. and they used to be so great...
here is a picture of us ruling:

I went to the dentist today for a check up and teeth cleaning! guess what... N-O C-A-V-I-T-I-E-S! HOT -DOG! And get this... my last visit was in 1999! Since then I have consumed roughly 34,876,541,832,074,903,475 sunkists and flossed about 4 times. Needless to say, I was scared before I got there. I forgot how much their evil little scrapers hurrrrrt when jabbed into the gums. and SPIT SUCKERS..... yeah, those things rule.
My dentist is soooo cool. Mike Cook. Friend of my moms (since highschool!). His wife Sherri supported him when he was going to school, waitressing at a steakhouse for 4 years! Now he's a millionaire! And Sherri is probablly the hottest 50 year old woman in existance! Reowwww! Mike has a permanent smile, firm hand shake, blonde highlights in his hair (combed down the middle like Shemp from the 3 stooges) and only has to work 3 days a week! He does have a HUMMER though, which is obviously wack. I admire people who had plans early on in life and stuck with them...
Deep down, I kind of wish that had been me. Not a dentist with highlights in his hair, but someone who followed a plan early on. It would have made my life much, much easier(!).
Weirdly enough, figuring things out is actually quite exciting. Possibilities are endless! I just hope that I am making the right decisions. I do not want to waste any more time.
GIRL BISCUITS ----------------------------------------------------------------- Life would also be much easier if I wasn't a "nice" guy. I hate being that way! How can I toughen up?! Girls HATE nice guys. They love Sex and the City. They love treating boys like toys (yes, most guys SHOULD be treated like that, because they suck, but not me...i'm kind of cool, you know?) Girls are evil and manipulative, without fail. I welcome responses by any and all challengers of this statement. Believe me, I would love to be proven wrong. I want to meet the exception. Some are definitely cooler than others... i know. I just can't find the cool ones! Especially the ones without boyfriends. Are you realllllly out there?! (echo...echo...echoooo)
So yeah, from now on... I'm gonna be MEAAAAAANNN!
grrrr!!!!
grrrroowowowwlwlwlwwlllll!!!!
(cough,cough)
yeah right.

THIS HAS GOT TO BE SOME KIND OF CRUEL, TRYING TEST.
So, I got into the Make-up Designory... A little bit later than originally planned, but I got in! School starts March 10th, 2008. EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, lets get back to the unadorned reality of my situation(!) I spent so much time stressing over being accepted that I didn't put much thought into how hard it would be for me to take out loans. So far I've acquired $8,400 in federal grant money (which obviously rules), but for tuition and materials alone I need an additional $7,000. I'd love to have $5/6,000 extra to help pay for living expenses. This amount doesn't sound that far out of reach, until you take into account that I have:
a. bad credit (thanks alot credit cards!) b. no solid work history for the past 3 years (thanks alot best fwends!) c. no cosigner to help me take out a loan (thanks alot dad!)
I'm a loner, a rebel...on my own. Alone. Standing at the foot of a heavily cragged mega-mountain called "$13,000". I have 6 months to achieve this goal. I have no one to help me and no time to waste. Is this doable? We'll see. Attemptable? You better fucking believe it. I want this so bad that I'd do just about anything.
Unfortunately, money doesn't appear magically in my chimney everynight... I got a job at a dollar store 2 blocks away from my mom's house, which I will start within the next few days. God, I feel like I am so much better than this! A dollar store? $6.50 an hour... If I worked 50 hour weeks until school starts, I wouldn't make enough money to get into school. Which is why I'm picking up any and all odd/art related jobs I come across. CD/T-shirt/Flyer designs..bring em on.
I can't wait until the next European BF tour is behind me. It's such a shame when passions clash. I love playing/making music so much but ultimately it is messing up any hope at having a stable(?) future. I need to hurry up and quit the dollar store and start waiting tables or lifting heavy stones for large amounts of money.
So, for the next 6 months... I am going to be surfing the internet forwards and backwards looking for grant/loan opportunities (all suggestions MORE THAN WELCOME). I'm going to work my ass off at a "regular" job. I'm already contacting special effects studios and asking every question imaginable. I'm reading voraciously, running, doing push ups and sit ups (my dad made me a crazy but doable workout plan).
I am psyched on the future and I'm braving through the present.

Yesterday I sent off my application to go to the MAKE-UP DESIGNORY in Burbank, CA. Now I just have to wait for my acceptance letter!
I wrote a cheesy/lifeless/mechanical sounding letter to their admissions department that started with: "To Whom It May Concern" and ended with: "Sincerely, Dustin Paul Pilkington". It really wasn't thaaaaaaaaat bad... I just hope i got the idea across that I really want this.
If I get accepted (and if I can take out enough loans to cover tuition...hey, I'm working one step at a time here!), I'll start school on January 7th!
a brief history of my love for the faux-macabre: -------------------------------------------------------- Since I was a wee tot, I've had a curious desire to create special make-up effects. I rented "The Making of Michael Jackson's Thriller" enough to own 15 different copies of it! I was OBSESSED with drawing Freddy Kruger and "Off The Wall" era Michael Jackson. I was probablly the only 5/6 year old in existence to have a poster of Freddy Krueger ripping off the heads of baby dolls on his wall. Since then I've been in love with cheese ball creature effects, squirting/dyed corn syrup, Fangoria magazines and Full Moon's "Videozone" segments. I'm so psyched at the prospects of making a living doing special effects.. Keep your fingers (or toes if you are a freak) crossed for me!
I'll fill you in on what I've been doing the past month on my next journal entry. I have to go wash my dad's filthy car!
ps. quick question: IS THIS TOO OVER THE TOP?

my mom is putting my dog pugsly to sleep before 5pm today.
i wish that i could be there to say goodbye. most of all, i wish that i would have taken him with me when i moved to austin 3 years ago. he's been in my moms backyard by himself for years and years. for the past year, my mom has lived by an amazing field ideal for dog walks but i am pretty sure that the only time he ever got to walk around there was when i came to visit... im not mad at my mom for not paying attention to him because at least she kept him and fed him all of this time. but a life in a small backyard with nothing to do but look at the back of a fence is no life at all. i am so depressed about this that i can hardly stand it. i've had enough heartbreaks this year to last a lifetime.
