As you know if you've heard me drink wine in the last few weeks, I'm searching for a job in Asia. Or anywhere, but mainly Asia. I showed up yesterday to an interview at the Korean Education Center 24.5 hours early. My hope is that they're blown away by my tenacity and can't help but offer me a job and a handy on the table. But these things seem out of line with the reality I've come to know.
Do you know Nic Sheff? He's had quite a go of things. Addiction, rehabilitation, addiction, rehabilitation. I'm not sure where he is now in the whole thing, but I hope he's healthy and not hurting too many people.
Yesterday I wandered through Koreatown looking for a bar that seemed like a good place to bury myself in wine and fall in love with a beautiful stranger. After several failed attempts, I ended up at a pizzeria that served half price wine (spoiler alert: this was also a failed attempt). I drank glasses of red and ate some tomato basil pizza and relaxed a little (as much as I do). I drew pictures and wrote segments of songs and didn't care if they rhymed and gave myself little made up affirmations and giggled and flirted with the staff. I will likely go back tonight. Well, possibly.
My hands are drier/dryer than usual. I ate two doughnuts this morning. I'd like a scanner. I never hear from my brother. I love William Basinski. Well, I like him at least.
Kick! Punch!
It's all in the mind!
If you wanna test me,
I'm sure you'll find
The things I'll teach ya
Are sure to beat ya!
Nevertheless you'll get
A lesson from teacher now!

That's Nic.
