old lady

she thinks i'm a
bad influence
is jealous of time spent
but i win her over in person
like it's a mission

i know they're played out

there's a music festival in my own town this weekend, how lucky am i?

asheville music jamboree

memorial day

went to hear derek trucks band at the visulite on saturday and was amazed at how good he was. playing with some funk soul bruthas, he was calm, cool & collected & totally in control while doing mind-blowing stuff with his giant monster hands, making the guitar look like a kid's toy.

(found this picture on google images)

next day went to lake norman for lots of holiday cheer and a mini modeling shoot with these friendly folks


also at brunch sunday lisa's silverware was sticking together magnetically for some reason

this is your brain on drugs

happy memorial day everybody!

not longing haiku 77-83

sell it to people
who don't know the meaning of
words you are saying

make them buy two in
case this breaks an extra can't
hurt to have these days

keep them in fear and
you keep the high hand and you
rule all this damned land

doesn't matter your
name you're the one i will blame
when anything breaks

try as you might to
keep it alright the screws will
fall down to the floor

how do you lose a
bunch of trivial pursuit
cards? i don't get it

fat rubbery it
all bounces off but the ones
that cut deep stayed deep

new bedmate

i'm sleeping with a Giant Carolina Wolf Spider. I thought he was a hallucination or a tarantula but my good friend the internet made me doubt it because tarantulas don't usually live near here. last night for the 3rd time (at least) in the past few weeks i've woken up in the middle of the night to see a tarantula somewhere on the bed & i scream & or suck in air & jump out of bed & turn on the light & grab for something flat & heavy to kill him/shield myself & he flashes away somewhere so fast & when i work up courage to follow him where he sprinted to, he's vanished.


the dogs are no help, they don't even seem to notice. he's huge, like 4 inches wide looks like a serious tarantula in the dark. he can live for 3 years. if i die of mysterious causes like a heart attack in my bed sometime soon, this is why.
