i didnt get home until 4 in the morning last night and somehow still made it to work at 7:45. surviving on technically 2 and a half hours of sleep after recovering from a strange mix of night that became so fun and so funny to me inside. jenna's new house is amazing and im really jealous. i didnt know south of washington was still that nice. i cant wait to move its making me sick and now south of washington has definately become an option. we all sat around and smiled and played trivial pursuit (me and joe kicked ass) until we couldnt concentrate on the game anymore from too much wine, cheap sparkling wine and pbr..whatever was your choice. jenna kicked us out at 12:30 because she like me also had work the next morning at 8:00 and needed to get rest but i decided to kick the night up a notch and follow audrey, christopher and joe to "the warehouse" which i dont remember being so strange and fascinating and exactly like the abandoned warehouse where homeless kids and runaways went to in my so called life. but with art on the walls. seeing it so empty was funny considering before we got there there was a metal show going on with a ton of kids. i only drank a beer there..smoked a quarter of a gravity and just took in where the fuck i was and who i was sitting at a round table with/on the roof with/on the dirty couches with. they said they recycle their furniture once a week (its all trashpicked) -- i could never live like that. 30 kids live there? shit. i want to write or paint about what i remember of it because i forgot that places like that maybe do exist outside of television shows and movies. (lifetime movies) we watched some kids student films which were just ok and watched 3 boys build a half pipe in the house over the course of a few hours. i lost audrey at the end of the night and me and joe got lost finding the exit. i took a cab home and he followed behind me on his bike racing to keep up. he lost. last night made me realize i actually like to hang out with people and have a good time without letting "responsibilities" get in the way...school, work, shit.

i just found a note in my drawer in (my) barely understandable cursive reading "the whole thing is a vagina". I need to know (remember) what this means. it was a brilliant idea.

school starts in less than a week. thank god. this summer turned into one gigantic boring repetitive fake nightmare - besides the records, books and heavy pot smoking. which actually ended up contributing to the boring repetitive fake nightmare. i need some peer interaction. i have been chatting too much with middle aged mothers and transexual hookers. i hate who i become when i have to smile all day and say hi to everyone. its this zombie elyse that is hard to turn off - and i hate to have it turned on when im actually talking to someone that i actually like and dont have to serve and cater to. so basically that means that i never want to work in the service industry again in my life. i need to be on the other side of the counter in the future. i need to make new or rekindle my old friendships...not that the friendships are gone i just havent seen anyone from philly this summer besides tom and joe. jesus im so lame. and i need it to change because my brain has been ready to explode like it is leaking through this computer right now. ahhhhhhhhhh. i need a cigarette..actually i need a joint. i need my creative juices to flow. i cant depend on early 90s indie/grunge rock for inspiration anymore.
to go to hail social/rainer maria or not to go is the question.
thumbs pointing down? i dont even think i like them anymore. i kind of feel like people watching/listening in on young r5 fans though...it can get pretty interesting. maybe ill just sit across the street outside or like sit on the steps of the church drunk and smoking cigarettes. oh wait i dont need to go there to do that i can just walk past the spruce dorms.

ive been so antisocial lately i havent even been able to say hi to my friend livejournal. have kept busy in this past month..saw liz phair, went to see conan, bought a ton of shit from ebay, and watched alot of movies. liz phair: amazing. i drank a little too much wine though and it made time fly..she played everything i like from exile in guyville and alot from white chocolate space egg. it was good to see izzy too. conan: one of the best experiences of my life. we were sitting in the front row and me and tom were on tv. kate hudson was lame but paul rudd was hot and funny and nice and conan was ridiculous. when he first came out to shake peoples hands and introduce himself, blah blah blah i couldnt stop laughing at how weird of a guy he looks in real life. like a plastic older version of a kewpie doll but only very tall and skinny. donald trump was sitting in the audience. i also couldnt stop laughing becuase of that. ebay: i bought a vintage suitcase turntable that works like a gem and cannot stop buying records to play. where am i getting all this money from? who knows. me and tom just got back from seeing last days - i dont think i can really comment yet...ask me in a few hours after i take time to digest a little bit more. its fucking hot as balls out here. school starts in two weeks. what the fuck am i doing?

when i was coming home on the (packed) bus from new york after visiting my sister this weekend this really short sweaty dorky 17-21 year old boy with a 2 day unshaven face and zits sat next to me (must give a mental picture)..and he pulled out his g4 imac and started watching movies on his lap while i fell asleep probably falling ontop of him a litle bit..well anyway....i thought he was probably a good person to sit next to because he was so small and didnt take up more than his seat...anyway..he got off at mt laurel and i look over to get up and stretch just as the bus is pulling away and i see he left his cd case with all of his movies in it. i am now the owner of practically every x files and star trek the next generation episodes and a disc of shaolin soccer?

last night was dinosaur jr. it was the first time ive been to the electric factory since i saw the smashing pumpkins there in like 2000. it now looks kind of like a casino. right when we got there this guy pulled out some shrooms holding them up in broad daylight asking us if "we were good". weird. tom lost his wallet so we couldnt go to the balcony and bar which was our plan so we had to actually be real people at a show and stand next to sweaty people that create mosh pits. but the crowd was pretty tame because everyone was over 30. sort of. broken social scene sounded like shit because of the pa. in fact the whole show kind of sounded like shit because im guessing the electric factory has really bad sound equiptment? they played good you just couldnt hear it sound good. dinosaur jr came on and i was suprised at how fat j got and how hot lou barlow looks (in a weird substitute teacher way). my 90's wet dream came true. almost. then we went to mcglinchys (me tom and nick) and called jenna and she came with her other friend nick and then dave came and it was all one big family and really enjoyable. stayed till they had to kick us out and didnt get home until like 2:45. nights like that are what summers should consist of.

Current Music: the love song from bed of roses
today i finally got the lock cut off my bike. and it took the locksmith a long time. everyone shold go out and buy an onguard lock for their bike..you will not be able to destroy them. it took him 45 minutes and like 5 different power tools and it cost 165.00. HAHAHA because the lock company is reimbursing me. tomorrow is my birthday. whipdedoo. yesterday i borrowed team america from nick because he kept on saying how good it was and i watched about half of it and fell asleep after that but it was really funny. they did a good job with detail. i have a headache so im feeling cynical and out of patience. not time to talk. i keep putting off and making excuses for meeting up with my parents. oh well. im exausted. did i mention before that elton john was amazing? me and tom are going to see war of the worlds tonight at the roxy. i cant decide if i like that theater or not. this weekend im planning on visiting the grounds for sculpture (everyone should go there) and also join the gym and take some vitamins. im turning white.
another vacation is in the process. canada
p.s. stella has given me a reason to live!!!! i didnt think they could do it but they did.

i cant stop fighting this week. i feel like every word that comes out of my mouth towards tom is either something negative or mean. he's been what i consider a real dickhead. and its called him being bored and me wanting more..not from him but just from my life right now. we can't seem to hang out anymore without getting into an argument. and hes out drinking with andrew and nick and im not up to that after working all day and then having to work in the morning early and he doesnt understand that and makes me feel bad for wanting him to hang out with me instead of his friends - of whom i love to hang out with except for the fact that im sick of sitting in a room watching people drink and get stupid. im jsut sick of being lonely every single night and then getting shit for calling him throughout the night because it makes him look stupid. whatever. im just over all of the stupid stuff - the drinking the depression the unemployment - its like killing me and making me feel like a peice of shit. and whats even worse is talking to a person who does everything he can to avoid confrontation. FUCK! i cant deal with this anymore.
