so after 15 years of hosting annual parties on most of the old pagan holidays and modern debaucherous celebrations this saturday the 17th will be our annual carnivale party... what makes this one special is that it will also be the last of our traditional parties ever held in my home...
having known some of you for years and others only briefly i would like to extend this invite to all my fellow e-strippers to come and celebrate the last great revel in my home...



hope to see some of you there

i took this pick out behind my house today... its kinda how i felt all day

so... i have lived in my house on claremont for the last fifteen years, and about five years ago entered into a rent to own situation with the owner in order to make it my own. our contract expired in the fall yet i was not in a posisition to outright buy it just yet so we had agreed to play it by ear without a new contract until i was able to purchase it... well, a few late rental payments later and i was awakened last saturday to the new landlord nocking on my door....yes boys and girls...she sold the house right out from under me...fortunatly i have a few months before i need to find someplace new so i have a task to set forth for you my fellow e-strippers: if any of you hear about any apartments opening up around may or june that are in the elmwood/ west side/ allentown/ linwood area (preferrably with access to a back yard) please give me a heads up....i can afford a nice place and am not looking for a hole in the wall...i just havny had to move in a decade and a half and am not used to the process...lemmie know if any of you can help...thanks

so i had this odd dream last night....i was walking down this long road that cut through a vast park surrounded by buffalo. as i walked i started to notice another city begin to superimpose itself over ours...like a ghost image at first it appeared cloudy and transparent. i stopped walking for a minute to ponder what i was seeing when two of my friends called to me to wait up...as they approached me i pointed out the new city fading into ever clearing view (the buildings towering over even the tallest in my "reality" by hundreds of feet...and all of the strangest arcetecture).
at first my friends thought i was fuckin with them until slowly the phantom city began to reveal itself to them as well....while the vision was still newly revealing itself to them it was becoming ever more vivid to meand i could see that we were standing on two very distinct streets...one in our "real" space and another in this fantastic new (yet very old) city that now surrounded us....i could see a man walking past down the street that had just come into my view and he stopped as if something had just cought his eye...he gazed in our direction and appeared puzzled at first, but as i realized that we were now beginning to fade into his view just as he had fadded into ours, he seemed to panic a bit and reached into his shirt and pulled out a knife and threw it at me...(mind you both worlds at this time are now clearly visible to me and very distinct; mine being shaded in greens and blues...the new one in reds and browns) i managed to dodge the knife as it flew past my head but it struck a metal post in my world just behind me making a tinging sound that seemed to vibrate both planes to their fundamental cores..
it was with this sound that now both places were fully revealed to my companions and this frightened stranger....the stranger began to run but one of my friends called out to him...as he did the man turned and thrust out his hand and a flurry of blades rained down upon us...and it was with the first blade piercing my shoulder that i awoke....
any suggestions as to what this might mean?

a new pic for today
