Instead of writing status updates I save up those thoughts and write blog posts

Everytime I go for a walk I think up a blog post. Everyday I should just walk to the library, sit down and write what I thought of on the walk, walk home, write what I thought of on the walk, and then just repeat that as many times as possible. Also it would be good exercise. (Or I could have a circuit that includes multiple libraries)

Someone who has an extensive formspring should publish their formspring as a book. I have thought about asking someone a bunch of questions anonymously on formspring and then publishing it as an interview. Maybe I should get a journalism degree (it worked for tao lin (LOL who gives a fuck what degree tao lin has?))

I wish spencer madsen had a blog at www.everythingisfucked.com

I just wrote a poem into a status update on facebook and then posted it and then screenshotted it and then deleted the status because I wanted the poem to be the screenshot but I didn't want the status to exist on facebook.

Brb having a bath.

Just reread the second half of A Million Bears in the bath. The water got a bit cold by the end.
I reread the first half next to the library earlier. I was going to read while walking to and from the library but it was raining so I couldn't.

I think of my wallet, my phone, and my ipod as the holy trinity. If I don't bring them with me when I go out I usually regret it. (can't find my fucking ipod) The ipod can be replaced with a book

Brb eating dinner.

Back. Why did I have a bath earlier if I'm planning on going for a run later? Seems stupid.

Brb writing 1000 words of my novel. JK just gonna check facebook and stuff

Caro took a bunch of photos of me on skype last night

I had a meeting with my case manager person today. The meeting was at eleven but I only left my house at eleven (I had got caught up on facebook) so I ran and it only took me 7 minutes to get there. Seems good. Also I had a real good run last night.

Meeting was good. Instead of trying to therapy/counsel me, it seems like she is try to teach me to do it myself. It felt like a class. She wrote stuff of a whiteboard. She gave me some 'worksheets' to fill out (theyre not really worksheets but I'm going with a school analogy (seems good for my 'rehabilitation' (lol) to be like school because then it will be easier to go back to school eventually (pretty soon really!))). One of the 'worksheets' is a weekly activity plan. It reminds me of having to write weekly training schedules and stuff for basketball.

Finally recorded me reading the second half of The No Hellos Diet. THe video is uploading now. I tried to do it the other day but my computer crashed. I can't remember if i Mentiioned that in that days blog post or not. Caro suggested I blog about what I'm reading and what it makes me think so here. While I was reading The No Hellos Diet I thought about: trying to speak loud enough, how long iit was taking, how many pages I had left, whether I had read certain scenes from the book in the previous video or not, stuffing up some of the words, having a sore throat, how many pages I had left, how cool a few of the sections were.
I'm still reading Nothing and You Are A LIttle Bit Happier Than I Am. Possibley finishing the tao tonight. Was thinking I might go to the library today but it doesnt look like I'llhave time. A Plague Of Wolves And Women by Riley Michael Parker arrived today but I don't know how soon I'll read that.

DAMN THIS IS A BORING ASS BLOG POST.

Have you ever considered snapping your thumb off? It seems really doable.

I'm eating dates. Enjoying it a lot. People seriously need to get more into dried fruit.

Just took the sheets of my bed and put them in the washing machine. Hi, marry me, I am a domestic god.
Leaning against my bed's headboard without a pillow for cushioning. Extremely uncomrtable. I don't recommend it guys.
Even without my sheets my bed still has a shitload of stuff on it: books, clothes, bowl, dates, bottle, scanner, papers.

An interview I did is up at HTMLGiant. Proud of that. I wouldnt be writing this blog if it wasnt for that site. Would love to be a real contributor. I have some ideas for articles. LOL dream a little smaller amirite?

After my meeting today the part of my jeans at the back of my knees was sweaty. EW!

THere are a lot of people on gmail chat right now. I wonder if any of them have noticed this as well. I wonder if we're all just sitting not chatting to anyone, thinking about how amny people are online of gmail chat right now.

Just ate a date and thought 'date me'

It seems like it's impossible to be well read. There are too many different spheres of knowledge/literature. If you read everything your head would swell up all malformed and disgusting and brains would start leaking out of your ears and you'd be panicking, scooping them up and stuffing them into your mouth.

THERE'S NO REASON NOT TO BE NICE

boring blog

Did you know that it's actually Jackson's younger sister writing this blog? I bet you didn't.

I don't write everything that happens to me in this blog. It seems like that would be consoring myself. I am giving you a limited yet honest view of my life or somethiing. Usually I don't care about censoring myself. I do it to improve the ratio of quality to bullshit. But on this blog I am attempting not to censor myself.

Last night I sllept for two hours. Then I stood and sat in the cold for two hours. Then I ran 8km.

 


Today I returned all of my library books but one. It was difficult to fit them all into my backpack. New rule: no more than two books issued from the library at once.

I'm beginning to think that Blake Butler and Tao Lin are the same person.

I think about these posts before I write them but I always forget something.

UNCENSORED THOUGHTS:
I wish me and Ben Brooks had a caring email correspondence.
I wish me and James Duncan still chatted regularly.
Does anyone want to publish a book by me? Will you agree to publish it sight unseen? Give me monthly deadlines like I need the first draft of this stroy by next monday.

There were lots of girls dressed as fairies. I like fairies.

I bought 10 mini donuts fresh from the deepfrier for $5. I went to a mcdonalds that i always expect/hope to be empty but is always busy. Today I discovered there is an unstrairs. I bought a larger choc sunday and a large chips. I wanted to get a frozen l&p too but they were out or something. I should have bought a drink because I need to stay hydrated.

I washed my head (at first i accidently wrote shaved). My hair feels nice. I have a headache.

My mum bought this shirt from a garage sale many many many years ago. I think i was still in primary school. I still like it








I like how Megan Boyle doesn't end her paragraphs with full stops.

Caro has turned her blog into a fashion blog. She is way better than Bebe Zeva.

I don't have any credit on my cellphone

I went for a run

I started out feeling really good. THought I was gonna run better than I have in a while. But I quickly lost my breath so that suckked. But on the positive side my legs felt strong the whole time, it was just my aerobic fitness that needs work. In the second half of the run i got into an okay rhythm. I got a second wind on the final uphill stertch and ended up finishing well. Had been planning on running again tomorrow night but I'm going to a party instead. Not sure how I feel about that.

After the run I did a poo and my ass was sweaty on the toilet seat. Gutted for the next person who sits there. I think I'm gonna trim my pubes for the ~3rd time ever soon because I've got a pimple or something down there and I think shorter hair might be better for it.

this is what im wearing for pyjamas tonight. My mum saw me wearing these underwear and said they looked too tight. These and my pink underwear are my favourite underwear at the moment. I've put this pic on me in the pink undies online before but here it is again:



GUYs I want to wake up early and be productive tomorrow but it's already 11:56pm and I still have so much to do today! FUCK. If only I hadn't slept in this morning. ALthough it's probably good that I did. I was really tired last night. Usually when I sleep in I feel bad due to not being productive but this morning I was okay with it. I HAVEN'T EVEN POSTED ON EVERYTHING IS FANTASTIC YET.

I'm supposed to be writing 150 words a dayt on my novel thing but I haven;t done any the last two days so that means I have to do 450 tomorrow. Gonna go to the fish and chip shop for lunch tomorrow but I'm not gonna get fish because I don't eat meat. Gonna have two vege rolls instead. The vege rolls are FUCK WHAT ARE THEY CALLED AGAIN? oh yeah Spring Rolls but the spring rolls at the fish and chip shop have meat in them so they also have Vege Rolls on the menu which are actually vegetarian spring rools.

I had my first meeting with my new case manager (i don't think thats her official title but thats basically what it is) today. She was young and seemed nice. She likes Brett Easton Ellis and she used the word fantastic.

it's 12:07am

Goodmorning

62% Cocoa muthafuckas

Tomorrow I hope to:

go for a run
watch that ustream
seems pretty busy.

This evening I got a call on my cellphone. I hate phonecalls. Usually I don't answer. SOmetimes my sister gets mad at me for not answering the home phone. Tonight I answered. It was my old flatmate. He had accidentally transferred $150 dollars into my account and wanted it back. I talked to him. then went to send the money back but realised I didn't kknow his account number. I texted to ask for it but realised that I had texted the wrong sSimon@! Anyway it all got sorted in the end. It was okay

I really need to trim my fingernails.

I'm sleepy/tired. I sent a photo of my penis to someone the other day and they kept going on about how big it was. I don't think it's that big.

I want to have one more sizable paragraph but I don't know what it should be about. My dad read grow up by Ben Brooks. We went for a run together tonight. We talked a little about funny moments in the book. I really liked the knock knock joke. DISCO/NNECT. My dad asked me how I thought this book compared to Tao Lin (HE HAS READ SOME TAO LIN ALSO). I said I thought they were different/ trying to do different things. I said although I viewed Ben as being part of the same internet scene (LOOSELY) comparing this book to Tao's work wasn't very useful. We both agreed that grow up is a more traditional novel. Hi Ben. Hi Tao. Hi Caro.

this book seems sweet because it's only forty pages and the type is large
