Sorry about my last post,I shouldn't have been bagging on the smashing pumpkins jus tbecause I personally don't like the lead singers voice,I understand that everybody has different tastes and there are positively people out there who disagree with me.Now to crive my apology home I must confess that I own a Chers "Believe",Madonnas "ray of light" and celine dions "one heart".I listen to them all from time to time.

Mabye I was just in a bad mood,which could probably be the case seeing as how I have been for the past week.
I've been feeling extremly depressed lately.First of all something has come to the surface and I'm now forced to deal with it,but it's not mabye not as high a priorety to me as it should be and I'd rather be spending my mental and spiritual enery on other things,like my future.Trying to untangle the knots of my past is difficult when I'm also trying keep on the path to the future.But this is what has been set before me,and I have no choice but to deal with it.I'm feeling a little (no,scratch that.VERY MUCH)trapped in my life as of late.I'm going to go to calgary to live and work with dad doing construction.It's no secret that I really REALLY don't like construction work.But I don't have any other job and I need money for college or university or whatever.I'm feeling like,now that I'm 20,I want to get out on my own and be independant,but at the same time the idea frightens the liver out of me so I'm staying with mom and dad.On top of all this,I've been wanting to see someone who is a very good friend before I go to calgary.This someone used to be my best friend,she now has more friends and has become pretty sociable,I am still the closed up little shrivel that I've always been.Anyways,She invited jesse and me to go to the fair in brandon with her and her brother.Sounded like fun but it didn't pan out so I invited her over her via email.I didn't get a response.I know shes busy but you don't ignore invitations....
Anyways,I realise our frienship is nowhere near as strong as it once was and I don't resent her at all for hanging out with other people more,I just resent myslef for not doing the same...

That's my life right now,it's alright.But you all can pray for me if you feel so inclined.

So I'm listening to "Ventolin" from my new aphex twin album and my sister walks in with a wrinkled nose and inquires as to what the noise is.of course that should offend me but I say that aphex twin and "music" don't always go hand in hand.Listen to the song and you'll understand why angie had a wrinkled nose (and probably shriveled up ears too) it's a great song but in the foreground is an inssecant whistle veyr high-pitched and annoying.i love the music and I can ignore the whistle pretty well so i don't skip the track.but I stopped it for her.Now they're listeneing to smashing pumpkins downstairs.At least the "Ventolin" whistle only lasts for the length of that track.Unlike the voice of the lead singer of the smashing pumpkins...


Don't get me wrong i actually like some of the pumpkins music,a lot more than many other punk groups.But,like my sister saying the whistle from "Ventolin" isn't "music" I'd say the vocalist from smashing pumpkins "whines" rather than "sings".

I'm not saying "ventolin" isn't annoying,it's extremly annoying,it's like being in room full of flouresant lights while looking outside at a beautiful mountain landscape.But like i said, it's only one song.

sorry for such a caustic blog I hope I haven't offended anyone.

Of all my qualms with television advertising the "dopey-dad" is one of my biggest.Men never clean house,as we know,so it's apperntly quite fascinating to the average male to see packets of dishwashing detergant with bubbles floating hither-thither inside like a miniture lava-lamp.intoxicating.
Or the oddity of the new Tide spinning brush stain remover.Nothing will mystify the mind of your dolt of a husband more than the the gentle rotation of a million white bristles.Apperantly music is no longer all you need to calm the savage beast.

These men are hideously stupid looking always bald,overweight and can be seen in many houshold cleaning product ads with a braindead stare.But cleaning products aren't the only thing that will hypnotise them.You can also see them chasing a honey-nut cheerio across the kitchen floor,which is sloped because the stupid, dopey construction worker can't use a level.He too,was mystified by the bubbles.
