always a follower, never a leader
i've been on kind a of a down swing lately. when it happens, pretty much nothing is good enough and all the ways i try and make it better fail fucking miserably. it's a really fun time. i'm telling you. for real. you can usually tell when this happens because i can never make up my fucking mind about anything. music, food, what to wear. nothing is okay.
nick cave & the bad seeds on the other hand are good enough. abattoir blues and the lyre of orpheus are fucking amazing and make me feel better by making me feel worse. it's kind of a yin/yang philosophy. if i have the capability to feel like utter useless shit, then the law of opposites says that i can get my shit into gear and feel up and useful and productive. time tells.
i normally don't do surveys (who wants to know about me and what my favorite ice cream flavor is?), but since i'm bombarded by this survey by friends whom i respect their opinions, i present a survey.
