"My loathings are simple: stupidity, oppression, crime, cruelty, soft music." - Vladimir Nabokov.
Hello there, I'm Eddie. It's a pleasure to meet you. I like guitars, reading, and spelling things correctly. I like the words 'genocide', 'ennui', 'litany', and 'deicide'. I like sending really good packages. I don't like generic fuckwits or sharp corners. I may take offence if you give me food with cucumber in it. I sometimes suffer from bulletin Tourettes, but it's often worth reading.
I use the word 'cunning' alot. I will lurk.
Who I'd like to meet: On myspace:
People who have something to say and not those who just want to add to their friends list. Interesting people; intelligent or funny. On the rare occasion that I add you your profile is likely to have made me smile, or you're beautiful, or both. I play guitar and want to be in a band so if you can help me out at all...
Elsewhere:
Leila Moss, Robert Smith, Kevin Spacey, Ricky Gervais, Morrissey, Ray Loriga, David Bowie, Ian Curtis, John Lydon, Marc Bolan, Trent Reznor, Will Self and Ryk Mayall. I bet Boris Johnson would be a laugh.
I'm lucky enough to already have met Bret Easton Ellis and the Manics.
You never get online anymore, and it makes me sad. I feel very little point in updating my livejournal, because no one responds. haha. but I've got a decent paying job now, so I plan on coming back to England soon. and you can show me the Smiths landmarks and we can drink beer, and maybe even catch the Manics again, yeah? I got to meet them on the US tour, and Josh and I told Nicky about our movie. haha.
Anyway, if you don't get your computer fixed soon, I'm going to get a sex change and start going by the name Larry. and yes, I will have a beard. It'll be long and bushy like that of the ZZ Top variety.
If you don't get online and receive this message before I'm in England, I will call you and you will probably be confused by the American accent on the other line.
I just saw your comment on the B&B blog, and I can assure you Adam will get his peachy tush out upon request at any gig. Minus the Abbey because there's a high chance of a bumming in there, the locals really are quite rude. I'm glad any Nazis like the songs, nevermind music Nazis, they're the hardest ones to please. I really hope you're well, I'll harrass you with more texts soon, and then on the 30th even more so. And hopefully this time Greg (Jacksons man) will actually pay us the money that's rightfully ours, before anyone has to kneecap anyone. I'd hate it to come to that.
Oh and I love that wallet photo, the hair gives it a real life like feel. And a stalker feel too, they're known for their hair samples.
Have a great Wednesday! (I had to check my phone then for day, how unsettling.)
That is an excellent point. I'll look into it more as the time nears.
My mood is starting to pick up, so hopefully that continues. Have a lovely slumber. I was starting to think you were nocturnal since you were always online around 11 Michigan time. haha. :)
I think you're right. I wish I could just go somewhere for a few days and re-evaluate, but I've got work and all that holding me back... maybe a night in journaling will do me some good... I wouldn't have a thing to write about either if I sorted everything out. haha. Especially when it comes to lyrics. I can write decent lyrics about something that's bothering me, but I can't write anything decent if I'm in a positive mood.
I haven't, but I tend to be one of those people who just gets there and finds something. I was planning on staying in a hostel to save some money, but now that my fake uncle's going and I know he's going to want to get a hotel room, I'm just going to stay with him. He's got more money to throw around than I do. haha. Most of the hotels I stay at in America are about $36 (which is probably about 25 pounds or something, but I'm just guessing), when I look for cheaper ones, which isn't bad, but I'm not sure what the rates are like there.
Nothing really in particular. I've just been having some anxiety issues again, and am confused about a lot of things. Also, I was with this guy who randomly decided he didn't want a relationship, but it's no biggie. We're still good friends and all, and I understand where he's coming from. Plus, it's almost the 8 year anniversary of my dad's death, so that's always hard. I've actually been laughing at myself a lot lately because I feel like I'm down for no reason and that the things making me down are so ridiculous that it's laugh-worthy. haha. I think I'm going crazy, like for serious.
I've been quite drunk this past week, as well. I actually hooked up with this guy I used to like a lot a few years back, and then felt really weird about it the next day. I definitely underestimated the power of 99 Bananas... I'm glad you've finally fullfilled your dream, and without having to change species. haha :P I'm pumped to get out to Camden and see it for myself. and finally see the Manics, of course.
Really? I liked both, but I like Jackie Collins better.
I'm definitely looking forward to the gig and the new album. I've had a crap last few days, but I'll get over it. I just keep telling myself that I have no reason to be down when I'm going to England to see the Manics finally and SFTF seems to be doing well, but it's hard to control sometimes. How have you been?
Sounds awesome! I'll have to check it out, for sure... I've just got one ticket because Kaelen has school and can't go but I'm determined so I'm going anyway. haha. I'll just make friends when I get there. I'm social. haha... I have heard it :) It's pretty intense.
Oh, it looks like tickets for Friday are still available on ticketmaster :) I'd like to go to the Friday show, so if you could still get me a ticket that'd be great as ticketmaster always rejects my credit card :)
I bought one for Thursday because it looked like they were all selling out and I wanted to make sure I had a ticket in case you couldn't get them. For some reason it said "tickets unavailable" for Friday when I looked at it, but it said "tickets sold out" for Saturday, so I'm not sure if Friday's sold out or what.
I got you this picture of an enormous set of balls as a very belated birthday present. I know it's a bit extravagant, but there's no need to feel obliged to return the favor.
yeah, I was really bored and wanted to make something, but didnt have any ideas. and Leanne was talking to you so I was like "hey, im gonna make Eddie a chin" i'm kinda strange haha
