Hotsaucesoysauce?

It's fuckin' COLD in New York already! What the hell man! I thought I had at least until late November to break out the winter wear. Sheesh!

I got my birthday package from Leile 1 today. Including his brand new CD "Tobacco Road" which you all need to cop right over here... http://cdbaby.com/cd/mistersalty2 It tells the tale of a twentysomething hip hop songwriter exploring issues including American guilt, adversity to the workplace, communicating with aliens, and drinking by yourself. The beats are pretty good too. (I stole that description from the site)

ALSO in my awesome bday package were the new Tobacco, Restiform Bodies and CRAC knuckles cd's. Not to mention a book of short stories by Charles Bukowski. Leile got me hooked on Bukowski after we watched a documentary on his life last time I was in the bean. I think all troubled young men like myself can relate to this guys life of perpetual lust, alcoholism and as Leile himself put it, EXTREME adversity to the workplace.. His poetry is fantastic...see for yourself.



I'm watching "Dune" in the background as I type this. I feel like it's one of those movies that alot of people haven't seen and if I were to quote something from it and someone told me that they hadn't seen it I would just have to hang my head and cry. I once had a girlfriend who had never even seen the original Star Wars trilogy for fucks sake! Granted, she grew up in Iran, but STILL!! :)



Funny how movies fall under the radar like that. I used to be quite the film buff a few years back having worked at an art house movie theatre and then at a video store that prided itself on an extensive collection of rarities. Adding to that numerous film classes I took in college. I don't really know where i'm going with this, but I guess one point of it is that we should all find time for more movie watching. Anything, Buster Keaton, Takashi Miike, Werner Herzog, Flight of the navigator, Irma Vep....oh and Anime too...go watch somea' that...

...I'm still cold...and the heating system in these rusty old pipes is so loud that I can't sleep through it. Gotta' be able to sleep for my 5am wakeup tomorrow. Thankfully only 4 more of those for now. Shit is unbearable! Got me drinking coffee again...

I'm still debating whether to reply to my dad or not. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I've never been one to forgive wrong doers easily so I don't know why I should start now. It seems like 1 out of every 2 families nowadays is torn up by divorce so I don't think it has the social stigma of being some life shattering event that scars you forever anymore. I think I might just have to leave it alone.

I'm going to go scurry off to the kitchen now and make a chicken ramen with just a liiiitle bit of water and crack and egg in it for dinner. Top THAT! :>/
