i'm really averse to finishing things. this rings (ring*ring) true with about 85% of all my creative pursuits. i'm beginning to think that i'm more fond of lingering, run-off ideas instead of finished products. or maybe they're finished to me and the audience is left to pick up where i decide to let go.
so my mini-vacation just ended. good times seeing old pals in the bop light of a monster city. it's nice getting on with people you haven't seen in an inappropriate length of time and not really skipping a beat as far as comfort level. i'm back to work now pretty much just trying to make money and tie up loose ends. my glasses broke, my taxes got rejected, i don't have enough money to cover rent quite yet and i'm still ID-less. i'm slowly rebuilding my empire though. it's actually not a hard process once you get past the part of doing it. a lot of sleeping done in the between spaces. that probably contributes to my not finishing the demo.
soon enough soon enough. it's the words though, man. i've always been shit with those. anyways, i was home alone and combing my hair for no good reason in the bathroom thinking. today was this girl's last day at work and we weren't terribly close or anything but we had some good or at least interesting times the few times we were around each other socially. anyways, i'd consider her a friend. definitely the kind of friendship that's almost solely defined by a workplace. anyways, it just made me think that most of community of coworkers i've come to be familiar with are not really around anymore. there's other real jobs and summer destinations or just different futures. it sort of puts me in a weird position feeling like some statesmen ambassador to these other new folks. makes me wonder how long i should stick around. it also makes me think that i work at the office waaaay too much.
i either need a good movie outing or people contact right now. speaking of good movies go see son of rambow. so fucking awesome. i'm reading this book i found on my kitchen table, 1000 films that will change your life. it's mostly just a collection of essays on good movies and i'm pretty into it. lately i've been toying with the idea of taking some film and writing classes because i feel like they're areas of expression in my life that need to be more familiar to me. i reckon i ouight to worry about getting all my stupid basic shit done and then i think i might look into that more.
also, in the future, i will have an all-girl backing band.
