Championing the cause of whiny crabasses since 1977.

[jackshoegazer]

After my drama class presentation,  myself and a few members of our group were standing outside talking (most were smoking) and our teacher came out for a cigarette.  She mentioned that she's offering an acting class next semester.  I'm half-tempted to take it, even though it would mean I'd be in a near-constant state of terror between January and May.
 
Last night I dreamed that not only did I have to protect my home against thieves trying to break in, but also that I had to pick up my friend John (the one who is ignoring me for whatever reason) and his sister in my taxi and they continued to ignore me even "in person."  Needless to say, I spent the night nervous and anxious, expecting at any moment to be physically killed or emotionally crushed.
 
The temperature has finally dropped to the point where it is much too cold in the mornings to ride my bicycle to work, and it's pitch black at 5pm when I'm coming home.  My energy levels have vanished with the light.  Even at noon, it seems the sun is low on the horizon.  Seasonal affectiveness disorder anyone?
 
I have not been a happy camper as of late.

Sounds like you gotta take it ;)

Seconded. It only gets harder with age. Do it now and you won't regret it.

See, I'm really lucky right now I suppose to have a dislocated neck, because I see this asian zen master several times a week and he is not only giving me acupuncture, he're relocating the 'happy', lol.
It's been so bleak here and I've been thinking the same things, and battled some terrible nightmares and wondered why my good friend was ignoring me.
Must be some strange astral weather.

Buy some bright flowers and take a nice hot bubble bath with ginger or rosehips tea. Then start eating Vit D caps cause winter's not even in gear yet!
nervous blast!

Speaking of, I had a dream last night that you, myself, ambrose_m_rosie and givethesignal were in this enclosed nature preserve, and we had to climb up these (almost vertical) stairs to get to the top of this tower for a promised reward. When we got there, there were Skittles the size of grapefruits geometrically arranged on the floor (our prize), and the sight frustrated us because Skittles just like this completely lined the banks of the river that ran through the preserve, and we had sampled them enough to know that these Skittles that awaited us were hard and lumpy, the way bad Skittles can be sometimes. I think you yelled "This is bullshit!" and kicked one off the edge of the tower into the river below before we climbed down, dejected.

Okay, before I go any further, I have to ask: is this all going to be about you, personally, and your life, or is it fiction? Is this Jack Shoegazer's story or Jeremy's? Is Jeremy really your name? Annddddd if not, where the heck is your personal journal? Gosh, you have so many journals and communities and creations, and I have no clue what the real story is! Fill me in, please. (:

[jackshoegazer.livejournal.com]

HAHA!

Okay, this journal, jackshoegazer is my personal journal, all about me, Jeremy, which is my real name.

My other journal is jackstaxi, which is where I write about my job as a taxi driver.

And, of course, I have the iconomicon.

Jack Shoegazer is the name of a character I invented for a novel or series of novels I've been planning for a couple years now. I also decided to choose it as my LJ name as well. Confusing, I suppose, blurring that line between fiction and reality.

Welcome to the party.

Okay, so everything I read written by you will actually be nonfiction (as amazing and unique as it all may be)? I don't have to worry that when I comment about something going on in what I think is your life that it is actually your character's life? Heh. That's very good to learn!

Also, have you written any of the novels yet or started any of them? Do you have any journals actually dedicated to that character and his story? (:

Blurring the line between fiction and reality isn't so bad. It's actually kind of nice. I just want to know who I'm commenting to. :D I wouldn't mind reading journals of fictional writing about a character's life, because that would be quite fun, but it's nice to know if I'm reading fiction or nonfiction, heh.

PS. Thanks. I'm planning to really enjoy the party.

Yes, unless stated otherwise, everything in this journal will be real things that have happened to me or my musings about things. I do post fiction in here but it will (I am almost positive) be prefaced as fiction. You can read some of my prose (which contains some Jack Shoegazer stuff) here: http://jackshoegazer.livejournal.com/tag/prose and you can read my poetry here: http://jackshoegazer.livejournal.com/tag/poetry

I've been contemplating creating a totally fictional journal. I need to pick a character and just run with it.

[seeitbloom.livejournal.com]

You really should. If you do, please don't forget to advertise it to all of us. I would love to see that. It'll be like role-playing in a way, and I imagine it will be very fun. I think I need to create a character and do it too. Nothing interesting happens in my life, so I need, quite simply, to create a character of my own and give him/her a life on LiveJournal. (:

Possible project?

[angeldvsu.livejournal.com]

Hi friend,
I was wondering if I could e-mail you for a possible project. I want a photo card made for Christmas of my brother's family. I have some examples and I will pay you! Would you have time to make a couple for me? The only requirement is that they be in a high enough resolution to have them printed to a 5x7.

Please let me know :) thanks!
