This is my new 5-year plan. Just to live. To experience absolute life. Completely unadulterated, unsaturated, 100% life. It seems so appealing. Especially right now.
I leave for an adventure tomorrow. From Seattle to Portland to SF to LA back up to SF then back down to LA then up to SF again then to Portland and Seattle. I'm looking forward to this trip. I need to get out of Seattle for a bit. I feel like lately I'm running low on ideas. I need my fill of the most vapid city in America. Bukowski, in Pulp, called LA "the city of Lost Assholes". I really am excited to see so many people, though. We're doing this all n very low money, too. That will prove to be either tedious or wonderful. Either way, it will be exciting. Expect a few photos to pop up here when i return home or get bored while I'm down there. I'll be staying with my favorite guy in the world, Travis.
Next week is also my birthday (the 17th). I've never been one to celebrate, but this year, Jess is taking me to SF on the 16th. We're gonna hang out with Crispin Glover and see his new film "It Is Fine, Everything Is Fine!". It's the second part to "What Is It?". Oh, and no, I still won't drink with you. Sorry.
When I get home, I'm going to buckle down and finish this script I've been working on for a while. I'll then start the process of making this little film of mine on very a low budget. I'm in the process of saving for a new camera. Specifically, a
Panasonic AG DVX100B. I might relocate to Hollywood to make this just in the sense of tradition. Well, that and the fact that everyone i want to be in it lives there.
So if i don't see you tonight, farewell. by this time tomorrow, i'll have my legs hanging out the window of a speeding car while i wear my sunglasses singing old Leadbelly songs.
I can feel myself getting closer and closer to turning into Tom Waits. hah. xo.
