well im at a loss

after the third move in as many weeks ive settled, once again temporarily, in a room, which is not my own, in a suburb ive never lived before, with people who i know vaguely. the digs this time round are pokey, charming and cluttered: forever looking for the elusive perfect space, wherever that may be, i am unable to give a definite time as to how long i will be here. maybe ill move in to that warehouse in surry hills if it becomes available, its always been a fantasy of mine to live in a warehouse, maybe that room that the italian girl is vacating in glebe- the rents cheaper- but am i willing to risk the gamble with a bunch a boho randoms? Sure! Why not? Im pretty resiliant these days. after three and a half weeks of running around the cross with nairy a stich to cover me , caked in dirt, chocolate sauce and corn syrup, hair gel and zinc, for no money, in the beginnings of the coldest sydney winter that i can remember ever, all in the name of art... for a show which i was then told i was two dimensional in... im a lazy actor apparently... do a co op bitch. i cant shake this melancholy. moreover ( I love using "moreover"... and "furthermore", for that matter) i was living in a fucking garage.

my garage leaked on me in the rain, it was dusty- and im not talking household dust, im talking concrete dust: the real mccoy mother fuckers, industrial strength. the first night i spent in there the acrylic floor paint i used, a lovely russet, hadnt dried and i had awful, crazy dreams and a slamming headache. it was a scary night whats more: the wind was howling, in that bondi coastal way, and i was playing wagners "tristan and isolde" on the stereo. the door kept banging and i swore the BOOGER man was coming to get me.


on a lighter note. i went and saw belle and sebastian the other night and they were utterley charming. a little too charming for rock stars. i like my rock stars to be more unapproachable. more detatched. more hating. stuart murdoch has lovely glaswegian lilt, however, which ive stolen. im an accent theif.

how are you all?
