I never use this anymore since I crossed over to The Dark Side...
Soon will be my mom's annual "I'm worried about you so I'm coming to visit" visit. I really hope every wound I have right now will be healed upon her arrival.
I have been religiously listening to Ursula. They make me want to quit my job and dodge my bills and live in the crow's nest of a tall ship. I think I might try to convince my parents to pay for me to go on a tall ship voyage, be part of a crew for a few days. Fuck, do I ever wish I could just make my living doing that, be a deck hand aboard some fancy ship which yuppies pay much cash to sail aboard. I feel like maybe if I live my life a bit more like a pirate's, I will be that much happier. I started writing a song about wanting to meet a boy who wants to get married. But not to me. To the SEA. But I'd bet he'd recognize that I'm a sinner, and if I meet his wife I'm GONNA GET IN'ER. Anyway, here's the link for Ursula: www.myspace.com/ursulaofthesea
I want to travel to SO MANY PLACES, mainly ones with coasts: Denmark so I can run around in their anarchist utopia in the middle of the capital, Newfoundland to see the Viking ruins sos I can give props to mah peeps, British Columbia so I can check and see if it is still as beautiful as I remembered when I was driving through with my parents reading Emily Carr's writing and listening to Tori Amos, France with my mama so I can run around a vineyard barefoot and drunk like a spoiled princess, and probably a million other places that luckily aren't coming to mind because the longing to up and leave would break my HEART.
I have been reading Treasure Island, the book upon which everyone's favourite trilogy of Pirate movies is based. I long to fire a canon once again, but that will most likely never happen. Burning bridges, how piratishly destructive of me.
Welp, back to reality. At least I have daydreams of seafaring and travels and music and canon building.
