That you can’t turn off! Fucking hate it!

I love doing this. It’s like an elementary school science project in my tummy.

Some people are simply night people. I’m one. I usually feel sluggish throughout the day and only really gain momentum after the sun goes down. Even without a night job I usually stay awake nearly to sun up.

I’ve been a bartender most of my life, usually working shifts till 5am. It just works for me. I wake up at my leisure and run my errands while everyone else is at work. No rush hour, no lines. I still have days off to spend with friends.

Frankly, I don’t understand day jobs. When I wake up I’m usually still tired for a few hours. Then I gotta work all day which makes me tired. Go home and be too tired to do shit. Go to bed because I’m tired and do it all again the next day. That feels like not having a life to me.

We’re all wired differently. Maybe you’re just not a night person. You should do what works for you if at all possible. If you have no choice in the matter then I say embrace it. Don’t try to reset yourself too hard to a daytime schedule on your days off. You are getting up around the time most people are getting off work or school so you should be able to find time to spend with friends or family. If you commit to it you just might be able to find a way to make that schedule work for you.

It could very well have been the same man that brought you Elvis.

I did something similar on a bicycle about to crash into a car in a near head on collision. Right before impact, without thinking, I jumped off of the bike, ran across the hood of the car, did a full front flip and landed on my feet on the other side… While wearing flip-flops.

A guy on the curb asked me if I was alright and all I could think to say was, “did you see what I just did?!”

Actually, I can get behind that.

Nothing can top

“Go hang a salami, I’m a lasagna hog.”

Coil has an album of four tracks each designed to replicate the effect of specific psychoactive drugs:

1.“7-Methoxy-β-Carboline: (Telepathine)”

2.“2,5-Dimethoxy-4-Ethyl-Amphetamine: (DOET/Hecate)”

3.“5-Methoxy-N,N-Dimethyltryptamine: (5-MeO-DMT)”

4. “4-Indolol, 3-[2-(Dimethylamino)Ethyl], Phosphate Ester: (Psilocybin)”

They are remarkable meditative pieces even without the drug angle but if you are familiar with psychedelics it might take you a little further.

PEW PEW!

This is how I did it. Play, play, play, a lot is key to learning but if you do it accompanying music you love then practice never becomes a chore.

Those first two are great but that Shoenberg piece… Man, some things are best left on paper.

Oh man, you weren’t kidding. That’s just objectively bad.

I think a lot of us can relate.

I think you found the solution for world peace.

Dick van Dyke turns 99 in a few weeks.

His music is not my thing but goddamn does he make some awesome videos.

Taken literally, a gang shooting aimed at somebody about 10 feet from me. A friend nearly tackled me and dragged me into the bar I was standing in front of.

Aw fuck. I was just starting to get regular depressed again and then you go and remind me that there’s also a whole other kind of depression on its way. Depressing.
