In addition to being sick and professional & financial woes --
A priest came to see a client of mine this afternoon. After nearly a year of requesting an in-home meeting for a veteran who has not been to Confession in 50 years, Father * showed up and stayed all of 8 minutes. I have no experience with church and clergy, and maybe I shouldn't have begrudgingly asked why he could only spare less than 1% of his day on someone anticipating his arrival for 11 months.
The bothersome feeling that left me with- issues with organized religions aside- has trailed all day, until I heard other news tonight which compounded my general shitty disposition.
Dependency is vulnerability and the exploitation or neglect of it is unforgettable-
Unforgivable.
I say bye-bye to my crooked crooked lip ring tomorrow night! The gun metal nose ring's being swapped in favor of a thinner one. Hopefully the hole in my lip will heal smoothly and the one in my nose will decrease by half the size, small enough for a pin-head stud. Also, I'm talking to other illustrators about my forearms' tattoos. It's a step back from sticking with the initial person I wanted, but after browsing online portfolios, I want to exhaust my options before hearing the Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!
Saturday night, Minneapolis fun- remixing FoM tracks for Japanese releases, Triple Rock beer + chess, and friend's band at the Red Sea. Tonight, The 'Mats and Magnetic Fields.
