i was hanging with my buddy at his record store and some one who i took a film class came in
and i hadnt seen this guy in months and i wrote some poetry about him
that was submitted to some queer or erotic journals
so we talked for half an hour and then he offered me a ride to class
and i constructed him as a fiction
and he wasnt

I met a man today who convinced me my life was wrong. He is 23 and has a plan, one filled with career goals and personal goals. hHe eats well and at the right time, he does not smoke or drink or do drugs. He runs 10 km a week and works from sun up to sun down. He does not take vacations.
I do not have a plan. I have no defined goals. I eat like shit and have been told by doctors that i will die before the age of 50 with out a radical change to my diet. I eat after 2, I drink like a fish, i smoke dope twice a week. I work from 8 am to 3 am, with a nap in between. I take long vacations. I feel weak and with out discpline, like i live my life for pleasure and not for the work.
Tell me what you all think of this.

PinkMoos553: hello, is the artist Mel Ramos ?
Meljramos: Yes
PinkMoos553: I wanted to tell you how much I love your work
Meljramos: Thank you
PinkMoos553: I am an Art Student in Canada and people make fun of me for respecting you so much.
PinkMoos553: Do you mind if I ask a couple of questions ?
Meljramos: Please be brief, I am in Spain and I am busy with work here.
PinkMoos553: I will be brief.
PinkMoos553: I wanted to know how you consider yourself in the history of art. Are you closer to wesselman or vargas ?
Meljramos: I like to think I am closer to Diego Velasquez.
PinkMoos553: wow.
PinkMoos553: Is there an ironic element to your work, esp. the art history paintings ?
Meljramos: Absolutley. Without irony the work fails.
PinkMoos553: Last question.
Meljramos: Shoot
PinkMoos553: What do you think of the Performance art peice that quotes your candy bar paintings ?
Meljramos: I am not aware of this one. It happens quite often. Good luck with your studies and stick to your ideals.
PinkMoos553: Thank You so much sir.
PinkMoos553: and enjoy spain

People working in a community gardens, or small townhouses who grow vegetables and need
tools can take them out like books or videos.
This is such a great idea.

today i took a drive to elk island, the national park.
i had a picnic on the shores of ahtoni lake, and watched pelicans fly towards the farm fields.
there were cow moose eating young aspen shoots, bison in their paddock.
i wanted to write something about this, how wonderful it was to see nature, and so close to home. so close to the oil refrinies and irrigation ditches, its artifical-constructed- a "park" where fishers wolves and bears cannot be introduced and fires cannot be burnt because we have had the worst drought since 1933. roads all thru it, and paths and benches and camp grounds and signs- and the sloughs thick with algae and the grass growing over creek beds.
there was 5 m b/w the edge of the lake now and the edge of the lake two years ago, and we could see this thru the thick glass windows of our big blue car.
im sad for it all
