Chordal Conscientiousness 009

In Austin, Texas…hotel room has loud buzzing fridge. Probably get 3 hours sleep. Wake up still in my clothes, dry mouth, puffy on top of my unruffled bed. Lotsa of tech stuff from my computer bags all strewn about. My basic Bukowski travel routine.

    All for a good cause.. I’m sitting here in my office (home) just orginizing all my junk and the future keeps getting brighter. Watched your interview with unscrewed with martin and his beaurtiful side kick. Not sure if they were at the Media center on Olympic and bundy then but G4 was one of my favs to watch with them.

    Going to go out today and make a few (10 ) copies of the PAH packet and and hopefully get out next week to present it here in the Arrizona area. Any suggestion on how you wanted it presented would help. I was thinking of calling you to get some pointers.

    Yanqui…

    Modest Mouse- Bukowski

    Woke up this morning and it seemed to me,
    that every night turns out to be
    A little more like Bukowski.
    And yeah, I know he’s a pretty good read.
    But God who’d wanna be?
    God who’d wanna be such an asshole?
    God who’d wanna be?
    God who’d wanna be such an asshole?

    Well we sat on the edge of the river,
    the crowd screamed, “Sacrifice the liver!”
    If God takes life, he’s an Indian giver.
    So tell me now why, you’ll tell me never.
    Who would wanna be?
    Who would wanna be such a control freak?
    Well who would wanna be?
    Who would wanna be such a control freak?

    Well see what you wanna see. You should see it all.
    Well take what you want from me. You deserve it all.
    Nine times out of ten our hearts just get dissolved.
    Well I want a better place or just a better way to fall.

    But one time out of ten, everything is perfect for us all.
    Well I want a better place or just a better way to fall.
    Here we go!

    If God controls the land and disease,
    keeps a watchful eye on me,
    If he’s really so damn mighty,
    my problem is I can’t see,
    well who would wanna be?
    Who would wanna be such a control freak?
    Well who would wanna be?
    Who would wanna be such a control freak?

    Evil home stereo, what good songs do you know?
    Evil me, oh yeah I know, what good curves can you throw?

    Well all that icing and all that cake,
    I can’t make it to your wedding, but I’m sure I’ll be at your wake.
    You were talk, talk, talk, talkin’ in circles that day,
    when you get to the point make sure that I’m still awake, OK?

    Went to bed and didn’t see
    why every day turns out to be
    a little bit more like Bukowski.
    And yeah, I know he’s a pretty good read.
    But God who’d wanna be?
    God who’d wanna be such an asshole?

    Like the song,”What are you doing in Austin?” This song is really nice, listening to it.

    I think God is a control freak but there is just to many of us running wild….Poor God…just relax and listen to this song, nice, really nice…and sometimes ….you just got to let go….

    I recently interviewed for a job at Pixar (didn’t get it by the way), and they flew me out to a hotel. It was really posh! Or maybe I just usually sleep in crappy motels. One of those two.

    I feel asleep in my clothes, talking to my wife on the phone, with a little drool in the corner of my mouth. I don’t know what it is about hotels, but I always wake up with my brain kind of buzzing, not quite sure if I slept like a rock, or didn’t sleep at all.
