'Cause the Game is Never Won By Standing in Any One Place for Too Long

Fretful day. Bad cellphone replacement. The whole time the dude was "selling" me I felt like I was getting shafted - thanks AT&T!

I hate my new cellphone. I don't know how to increase the volume, or how to send a quick text. But man, it'll take a 2 megapixel "photo" in a fucking heartbeat...

GREAT...

I just want to be able to talk to the few people that I want to talk to.
I guess tomorrow I should read the instruction manual...

And it only cost me $50.00 - thanks AT&T!

Angela (in the photo above) is coming to visit NYC in July and staying with me. My girl is coming down to shoot with her and The Chipsta will be here as well. I normally hate playing host - really - but she is so godammed cute (and I mean in her demeanor) that I'm really looking forward to showing this girl from Newfoundland a real cool time.

And I'll have help. My girl has all sorts of plans for her (which will go unmentioned), and The Chipsta is shooting her here, etc...

She asked me tonight if we "could go see drag queens?"

So godammed cute...we will.

Here's another Nick Cave nugget from his new album. Listen quickly before the MPAA shuts my ass down. And buy "Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!" - It's a masterpiece.

Listen.

"I stepped out of the St. James hotel
And I left you behind curled up like a child
A change is gonna come
And as the door whispered shut
I walked on down the high-windowed hall

You lay sleeping on the unmade bed
The weatherman on the television in the St. James hotel said
That the rains are gonna come
And I stepped out on the streets
All sparkling clean with the early morning dew

Maybe it was you or maybe it was me?
You came on like a punch in the heart
Lying there with the light on your hair
Like a Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of the planets and the stars

Well, I kept thinking about what the weatherman said
And if the voices of the living can be heard by the dead
Well, the day is gonna come when we find out
And in some kind of way I take a little comfort from that
Now and then

'Cause people often talk about being scared of change
But for me I'm more afraid of things staying the same
'Cause the game is never won
By standing in any one place
For too long

Maybe it was you or maybe it was me?
But there was a chord in you that I could not find to strike
You lying there with all the light in your hair
Like a Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of the planets and the stars

I see the many girls walking down the empty streets
Maybe once or twice one of them smiles at me
You can't blame anyone for saying hello
I say hey
I say hello… I say hello…

Will it be me or will it be you?
One must stay and one must depart
You lying there in the St. James hotel bed
Like a Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of the planets and the stars

I say hello... hello... hello..."
