Wooooooooo! Yeah ok, I can see the lust-o-meter shooting to 11 on that one. Good news: it's coming out on PS-4, and with the PS-5 just around the corner that means maybe the 4's price will drop to levels that won't make you rue selling your soul for it. You'll still hate yourself of course. But at least you'll have a cool game. ;)

from dangerspouse :

Dude! WHAT GAME?!

from alethia :

Welcome back. I hope you're okay.

from raven72d :

Records and tours--- still part of things for you?

from alethia :

Oooh yeah, I remember those (she says from her lofty advanced age of 32). It's okay. 30 is awesome. You know how people always talk about how you need to have 'fuck you money'? Well, at 30 you have 'fuck off time'. You realize you actually DO know shit, and people can bloody well stop telling you you don't know anything.

from alethia :

Nice to see you surface again. You okay?

from raven72d :

2016 is an awful year...but I hope you're okay.

from alethia :

Nice to see you writing again. I hope things have been well. :)

from raven72d :

Glad to hear it went well!

from whystinger :

If you are going on a leave of absence and want to keep your health insurance, take a look at COBRA, where you can purchase the coverage, which will extend it until you return.

from raven72d :

How did the tour go?

from dangerspouse :

"Pretty Sure" and "King of Nowhere" are really catchy! (And good use of effects on "King".) Great stuff, all of it. Best of luck with sales and gigs.

from bangyrdead :

i like your new song.

from erases :

Your sound is strong, and your lyrics knock down prison walls.

from stepfordtart :

There's a context? For that? HAHAHA. ;-) s x

from raven72d :

Always glad to find other old-school DL writers.

from raven72d :

Good entries. Good thoughts.

from jaysthoughts :

Greetings.

from darthuae :

2014-08-20 made me giggle.

from alethia :

Yeeeeeah. My eyeballs sweat a lot. So do my nostrils. It's...uh...hayfever. Yeah. Hayfever.

from alethia :

The bit that got me crying was "...Mom?".

from longitude :

re: julia - :) it's so great that you know julia

from alethia :

Wise. If you value your work, other people will too. I may love theatre, but I don't work for free any more. If someone can't afford my work, they can't afford my work. (Only exception to the rule is the occasional family member, and any significant other I may have. But even that has limits. This cat needs to pay her bills!)

from alethia :

I had an interesting chat the other night, about self-investment. Taking risks is the biggest key. I'd love to hear your album. I always wished I could write music. Of all the things I can make, music is not one of them.

from darthuae :

"the only way to get to tomorrow is to just go to bed." i like that a lot.

from longitude :

I'd love to design something for you. Hope things are going well in NY.

from longitude :

I'm sorry about your bike :(

from erases :

The stag brothers; we are so alike.

from erases :

Man, they love that.

from erases :

it's tough knowing when to walk away from situations like that. you care, but who knows if they do? consider it practice, and use to your advantage if there ever happens to be a situation like that again, with anybody up to and including her.

from longitude :

grocery store rotation already? (-__-) i heard that song on some indie xm station a while back and it stuck to me. their recent exposure is sending them hurtling towards the masses which diminishes my interest in following them.

from warpednormal :

please do.. report back :)

from and-the-way :

thank you

from alethia :

Exes. Man. Every little contact, it's just chasing the dragon. Best do it cold turkey, and don't torture yourself.

from erases :

know that feeling, well.

from hoursandours :

who all ever were you?

from doctorkaysen :

It pleases me to no end that it reminded you of me. ahahaha

from alethia :

I was trying to be nice-ish with the Prince Charming comment. In reality, I kinda want to yell: GTFO! GTFO! BACK AWAY SLOWLY AND DON'T MAKE EYE CONTACT! SHE CAN SMELL FEEEEEEEEAR!!!...but that's just mean. ;)

from and-the-way :

pfft, women.

from alethia :

She sounds like she's waiting for a Prince Charming to sweep her off her feet and save her. From what, though? Who knows. Rogue taxis?

from doctorkaysen :

You will. <3

from alethia :

I think that's a downfall of the creative personality: always seeking outside validation. I know I do it; I rarely do art unless there's a chance someone will tell me I did a good job. And I *like* doing art.

from longitude :

Nicely done Mike

from kll :

Good luck Sir. Cheers.

from erases :

awesome song, awesome performance man.

from and-the-way :

Oh man, I had completely forgotten about that movie. I may have to watch it again now that you've mentioned it.

from longitude :

missed the meteor storm dang it

from doctorkaysen :

It's nice that someone who doesn't have an "air force wife" sticker on their minivan can relate to me for once.

from longitude :

tricky, slowdive, cocteau twins, massive attack, ride, sparklehorse, catherine wheel... ollllld school shizz man.

from longitude :

It would torture me to see a photo like that. But then I've been known to do that to myself.

from longitude :

Nice drawings. Hope you're well out there

from alethia :

Go to Paris! Who cares if you end up hating the person you're with! You'll be in Paris! THEY HAVE THE MOST AMAZING CHEESES! Also my favorite church in all the world (and I'm not even religious). It's called Sainte-Chapelle. Google that shit.

from cordeliameg :

Stay safe.

from longitude :

damn. be careful out there.

from alethia :

Come to Canada. If somebody tells you they have a gun, you can just point and laugh at how unlikely that is. At least until they actually pull it out...

from boyecho :

being from the gulf coast, I feel that way every time one rolls through.

from longitude :

hope you're safe & sound

from and-the-way :

shoot a message to [email protected] and i'll send it to you.

from and-the-way :

major props for running a half marathon.

from doctorkaysen :

If the military had a face, I would punch it to death.

from longitude :

hahaha. that'd be some cv to read

from doctorkaysen :

I bet you're an awesome person to hang out with.

from kll :

9-5 sucks. Good luck.

from alethia :

I could have written this entry, but about theatre. People keep telling me I'm 'living the dream', but really, I'm just starving to death slowly while I wallow in self-doubt. (That's a nice photo, though.)

from alethia :

Do you guys get a cut of the door? Cause I can afford a ticket, and I like to support if it actually gets back to the artists.

from alethia :

Say, you're touring to my town. Hi-fives to that. I hope the tour goes well.

from alethia :

Most of the time I feel like my face is a bunch of potatoes stuffed into a pair of nylons. And then today happens when somebody I don't know spontaneously calls me beautiful, and I realize my own opinion of my looks means less than nothing.

from alethia :

Hahahaha. This entry poked something inside. Just switch me with your brother, and shift a few of the nouns around, and that's exactly what I just did. It's awesome and scary.

from doctorkaysen :

yeah, that's how I feel too.

from alethia :

I hope you're right. Fingers crossed that all goes well.

from alethia :

I am WAY too familiar with the ego + showbiz combination. Way, way, way too familiar. She may not realize until it's too late, but the people who really make it, who REALLY make it, are kind and thoughtful to everybody around them. Drama queens never make it far, unless they're unbelievably talented...

from longitude :

he's crazy adorable. have a good tour!

from longitude :

so cute. can't believe he's that big already. crazy

from longitude :

keep sharing the drawings

from longitude :

do you keep a sketchbook? I wish I could draw like that.

from erases :

My brother walked in on me screaming like the guy in AC/DC while listening to AC/DC today. Feel ya bro.

from alethia :

Well, Iowa is kind of like Canada, right? Covered in snow and polar bears and donuts? I think I read that somewhere...

from alethia :

Come to Canada. I'll make cookies. It'll be great.

from frankie123 :

playa!

from longitude :

That place sounds like a place where dreams go to die. Hugs are a necessity. I get/give mine daily. Go hug that adorable little boy soon!

from longitude :

That killed it. I'm desperate to be in hot weather and salty water though.

from longitude :

That photo of the sea.... that's exactly where I want to be

from longitude :

bed bugs.... eww. it's nice to see you smiling m

from darthuae :

"I think that we fucked with something special." i think i did something along those lines, too. it feels like the earth swallowed and spit you out, in little pieces of aching heart. i feel you.

from avantbedroc :

keep yo heart safe but don't forget, if you keep looking, there are other hearts out there with a beat synchronised to yrs. morning theft <3

from longitude :

I have to tell you, I relate to your latest entries and I really hope things work out.

from longitude :

I'd love to go to the show. Me +1 please?

from loveherwell :

it seems like you're going through a hard time. i hope you're doing all right. all things pass.

from longitude :

i wonder if julia julia remembers me... :) have a good time!

from longitude :

you make good stuff. how's life in Brooklyn?

from erases :

I feel the same way about the road ahead, but it's a road no one else can travel but us. May good fortune smile upon you.

from longitude :

Julia Julia? This is great news. Have an awesome time and make it out west soon k.

from erases :

your EP is the best music I've heard in quite some time. keep it up, my friend, and thanks for your notes. i hadn't seen them until now.

from stepfordtart :

I have several real life friends who started off as d'land friends so I wouldnt worry about that if I were you. Let me know when your European tour starts - those gigs are a bit of a commute from here! Hope it goes really well, looking forward to hearing all about it. s x

from longitude :

fishbone - you done good. hope ny is treating you well.

from stepfordtart :

Oh! It sounds GREAT! Im listening on a crappy laptop at my sisters but when I get home I'll give it some props. Here's to success! s x

from unowhatilike :

We like your EP. We also like David Bazan.

from stepfordtart :

: ( s x

from doctorkaysen :

keep your chin up

from stepfordtart :

Really sorry to hear that, and hope the pain goes from 'stab through the heart' to 'dull ache' real soon. *thinking of you* s x

from and-the-way :

i stayed up last night just to watch conan. congrats!

from longitude :

kid is super cute

from lostasyou :

I'm just stalking everyone on here in search of new reads, so I'm going to add you too :)

from stepfordtart :

Never be ashamed about telling people you are a musician - VERY occasionally it will bag you an astonishingly fabulous wife! ; ) s x

from stepfordtart :

Just catching up. Re your predicament - can you email me a bit more detail about what you 'signed up' for and what you got for your money? My husband's a producer (www.loustonehill.com) and might be able to offer some kind of solution. Not making any promises but there might be *something*. If you email to [email protected] it should reach me. Shame to see talent go to waste. s x

from longitude :

i hope things are better now... apparently i've lots of couches to crash on in ny. thanks for the offer. :)

from doctorkaysen :

i was unaware of this underground vincent martella epidemic :(

from doctorkaysen :

my friend brian looks like vincent martella too. this is funny to me.

from longitude :

hope ny is treating you well..

from and-the-way :

"How do you kick something to the curb that you know is still good?" Yep. I don't know either.

from dented :

hey, thanks for your note, i just clicked on your diary after seeing it and it sounds like we're thinking about similar things right now. weighing what a year means. good luck.

from avantbedroc :

jesus fuck! ***First i wrote "I hope you are okay" but <i>hope</i> is such an insignificant word in this instance. I NEED YOU TO BE OKAY, OKAY!!!?!?

from friskyseal :

you can do it! the hardest part was just getting off my ass. ask for advice if you need it.

from longitude :

you don't seem like a bitch. i like this series of self-portraits. they're inspiring.

from longitude :

08/24: that is how ive been feeling daily. here's to hoping things get better soon.

from darthuae :

shiver!

from avantbedroc :

that is def your tag line. sick ass drawing my friend!! & i have to add, no breaks allowed

from longitude :

If I had my sketchbooks, I'd show you what happened to the live nudes once I put pencil to paper. One of my studio mates was really good at comics.. I wonder where he is these days..

from darthuae :

now there's a story we can share. everyone thinks i gave up gold when i decided NOT to go to art school. was more of a batman/superman person, though! you should definitely post more drawings, they're achingly brilliant. (this would be a good time to say i really like your photographs as well, completely cosy to this mind.) X

from longitude :

that's a good drawing for a "little boy"! we never had anyone remotely sexy in my life drawing classes

from darthuae :

what a beautiful drawing! been reading your diary for a while but don't remember anything about drawing. can i see more? x

from stepfordtart :

Hey! Im liking your diary, and your photos, and some of your music (my husband's a musician/producer so I listen to all sorts!) and I'd like to add you - hope thats OK. s x

from avantbedroc :

ha, funny cat. keep up the sofa zZz's, tr�s bien

from college-kid :

I liked the demo. (:

from longitude :

discovery channel! what does he do? dang I gave up what I loved for love. stupid irony

from avantbedroc :

yet another graveyard entry from you

from frankie123 :

you can still take off your shirt, just moisturize

from longitude :

My sister is due this summer.. I can't wait. I seriously cannot wait to meet the little guy. And I hope your uncle shapes up.

from longitude :

Man, who cares about anything when you've got that little sprout to cuddle?

from longitude :

I've tried to start it (House of Leaves) several times now, but I'm too easily distracted. Hope you're well.

from avantbedroc :

i'm not sure about *every page* of comments but i def like a least the fist page of comment action. youtube s&g-ing last night, stayed up till 2am watching The Graduate.

from avantbedroc :

i love youtube comments. under song; "I wish youtube provided a LOVE button"

from avantbedroc :

mmm, they are quite contrasting/haunting sounds. i have much love for the man PS

from darthuae :

entry 2011-02-10 - 1:39 a.m. // gosh, i love his face.

from longitude :

My dad threatened to leave today. Parallels I wish weren't true.

from frankie123 :

the username/password is fire/fly (there's really only one person i'm trying to keep out haha)

from frankie123 :

baby's already got the smoldering look down right pat. he's a cutie

from longitude :

My sister is due in Aug/Sept. I cannot wait. More pictures please!

from longitude :

He's an adorable little bean. Congratulations on the new addition to the family. :)

from longitude :

I love my 50mm, but I think it's time to get something with a little more range... the cost of lenses is killer.

from avantbedroc :

love the hole in wall

from longitude :

I have this super old Pentax Asahi that I'm going to try and use again. The last time I shot with it, the photos were all blue. No idea how that happened. Could've been super old film. I want more lenses.

from longitude :

Hey.. what are you shooting with?

from boyecho :

talent isn't the right word. i played in awful bands just to keep playing. nothing wrong with that. i think mainly egoism and appealing to the lowest common denominator with music frightens me.

from boyecho :

glad to read your feelings on victor wooten are quite the same as mine. (bela fleck is an annual staple at my facility.)

from longitude :

sia: http://vimeo.com/1049394. she's silly good.

from longitude :

hope you've been extra careful with eating fish. and nice to see a new photo here.

from darthuae :

2010-09-24 - 1:32 a.m. the prettiest man i've ever seen. & i shouldn't call men 'pretty', but there.

from longitude :

09.23.2010: Your latest photos already make me miss summer swims.

from longitude :

re: 9/19/10: ditto.

from avantbedroc :

from longitude :

{big huge sigh}

from longitude :

I often feel that way about the choices people have been making lately regarding wardrobe and accessory pairings. It must be exhausting to want attention that badly.

from yespleasedo :

DAMN! That's scary.

from longitude :

I often find myself steering away from fish with bones because I choked on a bone once. Didn't have to go to the hospital, but I did throw up on the dinner table.

from longitude :

I hope you're okay. Endo-anything = no fun.

from yespleasedo :

My condolences......

from longitude :

I'm sorry to read about your grandfather.

from yespleasedo :

What is it that keeps us magnetized to them?

from omfggwtf :

(: wheyyy.

from omfggwtf :

radiohead, bright eyes and the blood brothers, yes!

from yespleasedo :

I king of showed you off to her (comment below) And your lady's a lovely girl.

from longitude :

heard good things about this place you've got here and it is all true

from yespleasedo :

You can go it alone even if it is unfavorable. Chin up!

from yespleasedo :

Your pictures make us swoon

from and-the-way :

i am currently listening to music from your myspace site, and it is making my ears happy.

from and-the-way :

i've been posting my pictures on the "photos" link :)

from witty-remark :

Sounds like a nightmare. Were we dressed well?

from doctorkaysen :

3/11- your post today, story of my life.

from thisisjohn :

I like your music.

from sadistiksoul :

2009-08-19 - 1:00 p.m. made you a favorite, though what hooked me was 2010-01-17

from and-the-way :

me too. i try to imagine how much stuff gets thrown in the trash at all of the fast food restaurants in the world. i wish there was an easy way to fix how we do things.

from avox :

Oh you made my day! I think you guys perfomed quite well, actually. And the Beatles! What a good choice of a song to perfom. <3

from doctorkaysen :

Of course it could, are you joking? This could be like the Parent Trap, the Lindsay Lohan one. I can be Lindsay Lohan, and you can be Lindsay Lohan.

from doctorkaysen :

It's cause we're the same person.

from hoursandours :

anyone can look like they're having fun.

from permeation :

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm revisiting all these old songs I used to love (hence the Modest Mouse & Built To Spill)...x

from and-the-way :

it looks as if we are :)

from darthuae :

i think i like you.

from why-oh-why :

While reading your entries I noticed your preoccupation with death. Have you ever read "Life After Life" by Raymond Moody? Its a compilation of near death experiences. Its very fascinating and offers a lot of evidence that is not easily dismissed. I have personally heard two people speak about their own near death experiences and they were very similar to those described in this book. It came out around 30 years ago and is a small paperback that you should be able to find cheap used.

from weatethesea :

I think you mean Mel Gibson + Mel Gibson's 80's hair = cinematic gold

from senttosaveme :

worst thing you can do.. you realize that substandard really isn't enough, but it's what you've gotta deal with.

from senttosaveme :

cheer up.

from permeation :

Oh, I'm glad you enjoy them. (I swear my post wasn't meant to sound as whiny as it came across.) xx

from jimmyxtony :

Where are you going to grad school? BostonBostonBoston Whaaaat???

from jimmyxtony :

So Thelonious ended up being a girl. Woops. But she is by far the cutest kitten of the bunch. Pictures soon. Happy Birthday on Diaryland too.

from senttosaveme :

think of it this way: at least there's snow.

from jimmyxtony :

Theres gonna be one kitten who is so ugly and rotten and I'll name that one Thelonious and see how much you want him then. I told you you'll have to fight Alex for him.

from permeation :

wow - thank you! i've got a space ship on mine. (i know, super geeky, right) x

from idividedbyi :

thankyou. really. most of my photographs were taken with a nikon d70. there are a few that were shot with my new nikon d3 and one or 2 with a nikon coolpix s52. [yes, i'm love my nikons!]

from jimmyxtony :

It's a deal =]

from axde :

i fully agree.

from jimmyxtony :

I knew it! I always suspected you were a goober... Summer is almost over and we have to go to Arties before you go far away to school and then we'll probably talk more.

from jimmyxtony :

Sometimes I anticipate bad things on purpose only because I know that because I "predicted" it, it wont come true since you can't really predict the future. I've been doing that for a long time and decided that it works.

from hrtlssrmntc :

bless your heart:)

from hrtlssrmntc :

thanks for the understanding. its difficult to get over stupid drama without someone to complain to, so i am greatly relieved i felt compelled enough to drag you into my gossip or whatevs and your response was so positive. this is so uncomfortable out in the open, can i msn you? is that possible?! enough is said! BYE!

from hrtlssrmntc :

i take back all that bs below! i wish i could paint a picture so vivid of what i have to deal with on a daily basis. the mind changes as frequently as this characters moods, like every second. i guess i am assuming you are interested, sorzzzz if not. BYE!

from hrtlssrmntc :

i do agree, but with the right person or people it can keep coming back. you can find a new thing you love in someone and it can help cancel out the hate.

from hrtlssrmntc :

if you give an email address i can surely send a password. yes yes.

from hrtlssrmntc :

you are very nice/honest/i think.

from lost-facade :

I'm a cheap bastard too, and my last haircut had a bowl-haircut-esque flair to it, which is not great in and of itself let alone if you are female, so I sympathise. And I guess while we're stuck with our fathers no matter how shitty they are, at least you recognise that he is shitty and won't become a replica of him.

from lost-facade :

I don't really want to be a hairdresser, but I just want to do anything else apart from study. Problem is, although I suck at uni, I'm not good at anything else.

from angelicagirl :

"fuck August 10th, it's not worth it" Aug. 10th = giant party at my house ... worth it. if you were around here I'd say come. I like reading you.

from lost-facade :

Holy. Fuck. Your band doesn't suck arse. Wow.

from weatethesea :

yeah, it's pretty spectacular.

from lost-facade :

It wasn't a bad idea to start writing in here again.

from gypsyxdance :

So, I came across your diary randomly today, which was your basic bad day. And it didn't cheer me up excactly, but it made it less bad. Thankyou<3

from weatethesea :

I didn't know you were here, too. What a surprise, little eyes!

from lead-balloon :

but you do have a passion. you're made of music and i love you.

from that-freak :

Thanks, Mike. Too bad all three of you are the same person. We're hanging out.

from x-paperdoll :

Don't sell yourself short. I think the way you write is lovely & that you're an incredible person. Keep your head up. <3

from x-paperdoll :

Thanks. I love how you write. You are truly amazing! Leave me a note w/ your email & I'll give you the info to get into my super ultra secret locked diary (...sarcasm... haha...) or just drop me one of those fancy email things (...more sarcasm...); [email protected]

from blacklines :

notunique doesn't fit you. not at all. you seem to be down to earth and highly insightful. you're honest with yourself. it seems like there is more i want to tell you. but i don't know how.

from that-freak :

Since I can't get in touch with you any other with anymore. TODAY. What are you doing today [Wednesday] I have a million years worth of work today and one last day to do it all. So why not spend that time with you instead? Oh being irrisposible is fun. Plus I owe you 'cuz I might be missing your show on Saturday. SSHH!!

from that-freak :

Hm. After reading your most recent notes I feel like this one is gonna be pretty stupid.............yepp........it is.

from myx0mat0sis :

dear mike,

you

from myx0mat0sis :

i miss you

from myx0mat0sis :

i love you

from myx0mat0sis :

i love you

from myx0mat0sis :

i love you

from myx0mat0sis :

i thought about if you were the war this morning and that i would write you letters but i would cry so much because you would never be the same after soldier-ing. this isn't completely random...you talked about warzorz too

from that-freak :

I'm in computer class, you're in computer class. Talk to me.

from myx0mat0sis :

you can't say you didn't try what?

from myx0mat0sis :

ajax :)

from that-freak :

I got all 'excited' because you updated. BUT NO.

from that-freak :

P.P.S Fucking...write. Or I'll hit you. A lot.

from that-freak :

P.S. Bitch, you called me Senor. Yepp.

from that-freak :

Nope. I guess you wouldn't have. I ended up calling Comcast so they could help me with my broken internet. But they didn't. Thank goodness for multiple on-line opertunities [Woah Kendra, learn to spell.] at school. YEPP.

from that-freak :

What?!

from that-freak :

You should have told me, I was bored.

from atgasfain :

That girl opted to allow her tape to be made public. It's her own fault, and therefore, she deserves to be mocked. Spanish AP tapes are the only hilarious part of that class, unless you think imperfect subjunctive is funny. Take the laughs where you can get them!
