No more clogged sinuses, lmao. Friday: Got up & went to class, then workt in the afternoon to help set up for the Halloween concert that the Percussion Ensemble puts on every year, wherein we deck our concert hall with all sorts of spooky stuff: cobwebs, skeletons, witches awash in orange & green—Then Ceejay cald, […]
Last night I drove to Jeremiah’s house to smoke a therapeutic bowl after he’d put his kid to bed. At first I felt like a nuisance, but then the two of us sat down at the kitchen table & had a nice, quiet conversation. Seems like I learned more about him & what his life […]
Fawkin’ sinus infection, again. I went to the infirmary this morning & got some pills prescribed: Augmentin to make it go away, and Allegra to keep it from coming back. I’ve taken Augmentin before. It sucks hard. Nasty shit. I’m not going to any classes today, fuck it. I’m sick & I need rest. All […]
So lately I’ve been letting the music-brain focus on school & the word-brain flex its muscles on here. I’ve realized a purpose: write down everything I see, as much as I can. God has sent me. Yesterday evening we practiced one more time at Casa del Jere. Knowing it might be a while before we […]
Nice weekend. It finally looks & feels like Fall. Friday it was overcast, a little wet, and there were leaves on all the roads & lawns. Ceej & I took a joint drive out along River Road, then returned to campus, and went to the Waites Complex practice rooms to record a demo of “Misera,” […]
Monday, cont’d: Hung around the parsonage that afternoon until it was time to go downtown. We met up at the Muse with Ericka, who had been able to get a ticket as well, and all rode together in my car the few blocks to Mercy Lounge. Sat on the floor next to the stage mere […]
What a Fall Break. Ceej & I went to see Cat Power thrice, because her tour took her thru town at the perfect time to match up with my four-day weekend. I bought us tickets for three consecutive shows in Asheville, Nashville, and Memphis on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights, respectively. Why? Because that extra […]
Wednesday I was gonna get up early & practice; instead I chose to sleep in. Doctor Fil is gonna hate me. Class & work till like 4pm, then we head up to Sumner Co. smoking the 2nd half of a blunt left over from Tues. We’ve finished off most of that quarter, since there was […]
There are strange warm gasses rising out of the dirt, out of manholes; I think a volcano is forming under the school. I noticed a few days ago on the first crisp fall morning we had a pillar of steam coming out of the storm drain at the curb next to our building… but there […]
Ceejay spent last night & is again spending tonight here on campus. He sleeps in a stanky old cloth sleeping bag on the floor. Sean is being polite about it all. I got up early today, stepping over the snoring mass on my way out the door to practice before my lesson with Dr Filip. […]
