what's that about good news, iggy?

again, let's grant that much of the real story is being left un-addressed here... and, to be honest, it isn't just story in the sense of narrative but much of the fundamental under-girding is being left out as well: this is a double-obfuscation. it is a doctored narrative that takes care to call attention to it's own inauthenticity but is less deliberate in the ways that seeks to impoverish the story beneath the skin. have you ever made ukranian easter eggs? you paint the shell up fancy, then make a tiny hole and drain out the insides. if done properly, no one will suspect that the insides have been tampered with...


day -5
after some texting and planning in futures, i met up with
twitmeat the spyhouse where there was food, coffee,
alisgray,
ferrousoxide, a scott and a grand plan for hunting dogs. i ended up having only coffee, the hunting outing was postponed indefinitely, the scott left and the remaining four of us saw a 3d movie complete, of course, with requisite automotive adventures.

day -4
real progress on the house: there is now a shower, an appropriate number of studs, 1/2 a wall (where there should be 1 but where there used to be none) and a solid plan for completing most of the structural infirmities. then, an outing with the councilman, his wife, brock and
twitme. i had a delicious mango lassi.

day -3
got up way too early for work and consequently had plenty of time to work on music in the morning. i finished a new arrangement for a song that has the potential to be one of the best and cleaned up the mix on instrumental dance track #2. work was better than expected: real changes have come with the change in position and i am now given enough respect that i no longer feel justified in being a dick to doug. moving
eiregirl's furniture went much faster than expected and at hardmonday i met a bunch of new people before being engaged oddly by andrew who, in any event, told me about the new grendel album. he has been generally quite positive and encouraging... there is a possibility that this is deception. maya was particularly cheery and
eiregirl was particularly beautiful. i spent a good deal of time talking with
missstage, then ursula showed up with possibly the world's most charming case of the drunk and i gave her a ride home.

day -2
i recognized that 6 hours is an ideal amount of time to spend at work each day and then nothing good happened until i went over and helped
eiregirl move furniture. i listened to the new grendel album several times. the only track i was missing was the caustic remix of 'hatethis!' (i later acquired this track and discovered that i don't really like it.)

day -1
i read that 20dollarlove is playing twice in the coming week. it turns out that i was wrong about one of the dates but i can still see them on friday. afterward, there was dangerboard practice which went well eventually. since it was
thetrustmeguy's birthday,  we got some little t's afterward and were served by that blond waiter whose name i can never remember... we (
k_totem  and i) harassed her early on re: the 'bean discount' but she has not held it against us despite being a bit upset by it at the time. ephraim accepts his portion of the blame for emo.

... the egg is considerably more fragile in this state. i may break if jostled and certainly will not stand any pressure. by winter, there is a hard ball inside made up of what yolk could not be removed through the hole. you can hear it rattle around if you shake gently.
