I’m drunk, but I had a really good talk with Chris tonight before I was drunk. We got very real for a few minutes and it was such a relief to communicate with a friend like that. It’s been a weird but good night. Now I’m just thinking about how good the daily show was yesterday (because I’m back to watching them online a day behind)

Anonymous asked: Not only do I like your blog (haha I found it) but I also am OBSESSED with you secretly. Ok here we go.. I got this idea from a Tumblr spam I got once lol.. I think you like me too and you were always too shy to admit it :3 go to crushmatches(dòt)com (wtf it wont let me link regular) and make an account there. Then look up the profile 'gottagetme19' (me obviously) I left body...

My apathy is getting more and more obvious and the negatives of this are becoming apparent. I’m not unhappy, but I’m noticing that things aren’t as surreal as they used to be and maybe that’s just an aspect of growing up but I feel like and hope that isn’t the case. I remember the end of school years in high school and how ready for summer I used to be and how much I...

why do I fall asleep easier in my reclined driver’s seat than I do in my bed?

Mar 22nd

I was at the truckstop with Greg from around 11pm to 5:30am last night. I recorded 3.5 hours of our conversations with two separate truckers. Dropped Greg off at home and caught the 6:20am bus to boston. Slept on the bus ride. Got home around 8:30am, curled up and slept until 4pm. Went to massart, developed two rolls just before the alt process class took over the lab. Now I’m in the...

more from boston

again stationary in Boston. It’s 6am and I can’t sleep because I took a nap from 4pm - 11pm yesterday. well now I’m just sitting here mulling things over and I realize that I still feel really out of place whenever I walk around massart. I’m a month into my second semester and I just walk around with my head down all the time whenever I pass through any communal space. I...

from boston

Not many updates lately because I’ve been comparatively immobile. Also I don’t know of a single person following this blog that isn’t connected to me via my other more active social media platforms, so there’s really no need. My internet existence is a whole pile of semi-redundancies. flickr, facebook, tumblr, tuckerleary.com, twitter, they all end up seeing mostly the same...

HOW I WISH TO TRAVEL

I’ve decided that I wish to move around by four methods in the near future. Method One : Walking No photo required. This is really just a technicality. Method Two : Cycling Probably not a fixed gear, despite the photo. I’m thinking 3-speed maximum though. lightweight, cheap, maybe a single-speed/fixed flip flop hub. I’m digging the idea of a Brooks saddle...

Today is interesting. I registered for classes and I’m not really sure what my schedule will be next semester, but I’m not too concertinaed because I definitely have monday off and I might have friday too. I got screwed by the lottery system though so by the time I was cleared to actually register practically all of the art histories were taken. Whatever. After that was done I went on...

Dustin posing Brand New lyrics inspired me to listen to The Devil and God for the first time in a long time tonight, and “Degausser” has successfully shown itself as a deja vu catalyst. Specifically, this song is making me think about the winter of 2007/8 during my Senior year when I used to drive around alone at night in the Lumina. I spent a lot of time alone my senior year and was...

I miss being confident in my interactions with new people. I need a social wingman.

there is a lot of really great stuff in my life I would trade to be friends like we used to be again.

I miss the days I would drive the hour through the woods to see you, just to drive home at 1am alone. It was always worth it, and the time alone was great because I just thought about you and I could sing aloud in my car and nobody had to know. Winter is the season that breaks me. I didn’t know it at the time, but I guess I like the mundane work if it means I have the free time to make those...

cheating

This one isn’t via text, it’s via laptop. I’m also very immobile at the moment, so I guess this whole blog is me living a lie. I’m sitting at my mom’s house in Biddeford waiting for my dad to come by with a trickle charger and jumper cables so we can try to jump my car. I started moving things into my room in Boston yesterday (as noted in the photo below) and in the...

Farewell

It’s my last day at Converse today. I’ll still be doing stuff for them, but my internship is done so that means no more computer/access/discounts and such. It’s been a really fun summer, and I’m nervous about school. Not excited like I hoped to be, but just uneasy. It’ll be ok, I might have found a place to live yesterday. It’s a tiny room, so there goes my plan...

I miss the passenger seat with the shins whispering from the surprisingly capable speakers of the corolla.

looks like we’re back in action for MMS. This is a constant struggle for my jailbroken iPhone. Now that I’m up to date with iOS4, I’m fixing all the neglected broken shit. the photo below is the kaviar my dad eats. It comes in tubes. I guess it’s really popular on oil tankers. My dad is the man.

update

Hey everyone who follows this one! I stopped posing things to my mobile tumblr because MMS hasn’t been working on my phone for a while. I’m working on fixing that right now, but yeah, that’s why. OK cool, things are going great in my life, hope yours is just as good!

i’m so discouraged every time i try for college stuff. i don’t meet the requirements for massart and i don’t know what to do with my life. why won’t places just hire photographers based on their work? isn’t that the best measure of talent?

shiiiit

Couple things just occured to me. First, Christmas is next Friday. That’s kinda a big deal. I have to get a lot of stuff in the next week. Second, I have my advisory session at SMCC this Friday and I start classes on January 11th. That’s going to be a HUGE pace change from my life for the last year and a half. I’ve been living pretty well and enjoying it quite a lot but I’m...

renaissance

I think I’ll be using this tumblog more often. I just read all 10 pages of Mark’s and it reminded me how helpful writing things out used to be for me. Alright cool, it’s established then. Tonight I went with Nikole to Windham to see Defeater, Cruel Hand, and my friends in She Has Fallen play. The show was supposed to be at the SMCC campus in Portland but I guess there were some...

new car!

bought a 2000 Ford Focus ZTS a couple days ago. I drove around on a transfer plate for the weekend so today I registered it in Biddeford. It’s amazing how much you save when a bill of sale says $19.00 instead of $1,900.00… pixxx soon.

no new car yet. lumina living is still great. not having a reverse gear is less annoying than you’d imagine.

ya know

I’ve made some pretty big mistakes in my life, but sunday’s was easilly the most monumentally stupid thing I’ve ever done. I hope to god that I didn’t fuck everything up. I’m so scared, it’s absurd.

last night in the lumina?

so there’s good chance that by this time tomorrow I will own a ford focus. while this is exciting, It also means the end of an era. I’ve had my 1993 lumina for 2 years and it has been one hell of a car. I’m lying here in the 72 hour lot sprawled across my front bench seat trying to enjoy this one last time. on that note, I am quite tired so I’m going to get some rest....

discouraged

there was a time when the people who I admired for any reason were at least a couple years older than me, and that was encouraging. I could look at their skill or maturity and see that I could aim to be like that when I got a couple years older, but I’ve come to a roadblock (in the photo thing) wherein I’ve realized that everyone whos work I admire is almost the same age as me. Why is...
