well,

So yes,
I'm foing algebra. That's all I've been doing. So here's the scoop. I've never done algebra. This class is for people who have. I like it, but it's way to much for me to process this quickly. I'm trying to learn pretty much a whole year of highschool algebra in a week. It doesn't work. Fuck. OK, well...
Also, it's true: i am wearing CK girls panties.

More Foul Eye Candy

Well, here's my friend Seth.


He complained that the only picture of me had a camera in front of my face. So he Snapped one of me.


Then I went crazy and decided to devote the better part of this blog to pictures of myself. How much more narcissistic (is that how you spell that?) can you get?

This is a picture of Kevin and I after we won "best rock/experimental" at the Nashville Scene Music Awards.


I'd forgotten how hairy we both got this summer.


Why?


Not as hairy as I was when I was 17, though. I don't know how that happened.


This is a boring picture of me in the bathroom. Why are you looking at it?


Carolyn's beautiful hands.


Part of Carolyn's beautiful headface. It was really nice having her in town for a few weeks durring christmas. I won't be seeing her for the next 6 months 'cause she's gone back to London.


My nephew Michael who lives with his parents (my sister Sarah, and Brother-in-law Joseph) in Anderson, IN.


Some strange circles at the mall at Opry Mills.


A fountain. What can I say? I think carolyn shot this picture while I was in the bathroom. It's nice.


Well, That wraps up today's post. Happy viewing.

Is there life on mars?

I awoke with the david bowie song in my head.
I promise I'm getting these pictures taken cf. Computer problems. So, make sure you check out the new pictures on the Thornton web site. Kevin posted some pictures of himself 13 years ago and boy are they funny. There's no security on the members section right now so browse around while you can. You don't have to log it.
It's been good to have my friend ben down here in nashville. It's been 3 years we've been living in separate places now. He just moved down to this land.
Back on the subject of my band. I'm booking this tour for april. I know people a lot of places, but not in chattanooga and birmingham. Anyone know someone/some band in that area that could help me set up a show? Lemme know it you do, 'cause those are important connecting towns between Knoxville and Memphis.

I feel braindead

Most of the time my brain seems like it's in overdrive and just won't stop ticking. Strangely enough this only happens when I have some task to put my hands to. Or when I'm on the toilet. I'm not so good at running my brain when I'm sitting in front of a computer screen or a TV or when my body isn't doing much. Why? I guess when my body gets into a rythm of motion I can put it on auto pilot and not think about it at all, as backwards as it sounds. Lift up into my head and go. But lemme tall you, while I'm on the toilet my imagination runs wild! Boy is it great.
So, I'm putting myself to the task of booking. Send your energy rays this way. Booking for a band is an interesting task. It's like water. At least that's what I think now. I'll let you know if my opinion changes. Alright. Time for bed.

Down Below

Thank the gods that we all survived a night well below freezing. I was working at a warm little cafe in Nashville, TN. I think I got frost-bite on the way home though. My fingers won't work rightsasagahaf? For some reason though this cold didn't seem as harsh as it has before. It's probably because I'm fatter than I was last year. Happy whatever holiday this is to you all. I'm glad I can't send anything in the mail today.

Lemme have a good time.


My friend Kevin (not Thornton) reminded me I hadn't posted in a minute. By the way, go check out his blog 'cause it's interesting. Trust me and just do it. Also go to his knitting blog. I'm serious. Go there and by a scarf from him 'cause they're cool and it'll feed a homeless person. If you need to paypal me money and have me mail it to you that's cool. After you're done, come back and read my blog.
SO, it's been a while. Here's what I've been working on. Count how many times in a day someone says something negative to you. Maybe it about your job, or boss. Maybe it's some gossip about a mutual 'friend'. Maybe it's some complaint about the worlds financial system or something else far beyond your control. Listen to the tone and what you're expected to do. You're supposed to get mad with them and stew over it. Or if it's gossip you're supposed to get all chatty about how bad your friend is. Basicly you're at least expect to validate your fellow humans negative take on something and adopt it as your own. Every time you listen to this trash (and we do this virtually without knowing) you're letting this fellow human inject your mind and your heart with poison. Think about it. Every time you listen to gossip you think lower of someone, you'll behave as if you do too. When you soak up negative comments thrown around about your something or someone, when you add to them and join in fueling these coals of hatred, you're strangling your 'soul' and ruining your life bit by bit. But that's what humans are doing, gladly giving and recieving poison everywhere. It's sick and ugly. Once you realize this, whenever someone tries to give you some of that poison, a little red flag goes up in your brain, and you can say to yourself, "I don't accept this.". Or when someone starts to gossip about someone else you can say, "I'd rather not hear that.". Go ahead! Stop them midsentence before they can unjustly mame someones image anymore! Also, you'll notive in your speech there are a lot of things that you needn't say as well. Does someone else really need to know that bad qualities you THINK you've identified is someone else? Do they need to hear your opinion about how stupid your think your city, state, job, government, etc...is? Maybe they're having a good time. Maybe you should too.
I have some new pictures. I'm having some software issues so I can't format them for this site today. I'll have them up within the week.
In other news, this show just announced! Thornton will be playing at Exit/In in Nashville Feb. 16th with Aireline, and Lovedrug! Thornton goes on AT 9:00 on the dot. BE THERE at 8:45!!! What a fun night this will be.
