STUDIO DIARY #34 (February 9th - 15th, 2001)
Friday 9th
Got home late last night so missed the "The Know it all Boyfriends" gig much to my chagrin.The shoot in NYC went pretty smoothly.Whether the magazine will use the photos for their front cover or not is another matter entirely but we'll just have to wait and see.Afterall......I did keep the majority of my clothes on!!!
The great plus of the day however was that my wonderfully talented and wickedly handsome hairdresser Renato fixed my hair.
Halleluiah!!!!!!
Saturday 10th
Worked out early this morning and found great solace in the effort. I'm all muddled up of late.I feel so lost.Maybe I just need to get out of here for a little while.Hang out with those close to me. I'm getting so lonely and isolated out here by myself.
A word of warning to those of you out there who may be thinking of joining a band.
(WARNING: THIS IS A SWEEPING GENERALIZATION)
Women think you're a slut and men think you practice bad voodoo OH!!!! "CLose to you" by The Carpenters is playing in the next room.Damn it sounds WONDERFUL.
Rewrote all the words for "Til The day I die" again this afternoon.That's what singers do when they're bored out of their skulls.They rewrite and rewrite time and again.......chasing their tails like mad dogs.
Hmmnnnn.....so what else? I'm going to see The Pledge tonight in which Jack Nicholson is supposed to shine.I was thinking of "Hannibal" but I can't bear the thought of a packed cinema.I like the emptiness of theatres where the sound bounces off the walls and into my mouth.It's so much more sensual that way.If the cinema is packed, the sound is absorbed by the bodies and all you can hear is the rustling of sweetie wrappers and the sucking of straws. That drives me mental.
Sunday 11th
Day off
Monday 12th
"The Pledge" was incredible but SUPER intense.I was utterly exhausted by the end of it.And oh it spooked me..........so much so that at one point I let out an enormous scream whilst shouting out loud "OH NO!" at the top of my voice. The entire audience burst out laughing at my expense. See I'm not a very cool person to go to the movies with.You have to be prepared for loud and uninhibited expressions of hilarity or fear.
Great news of the day: Jack Russels are permited to compete in the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show today for the first time in the show's 125 year history!!!!!!!
About bloody time too.Jack Russels have been discriminated against for way too long.
Talking of discrimination (or NOT) I wonder what the ruling on Napster is going to be later today?
Tuesday 13th
Reasons to be cheerful:

9.We're going to start mixing the record on April first.
10.I don't have to make another record ever again in isolation unless I really want to.
11.Being sad doesn't last forever.
12.Eminem and Elton are going to get it on at The Grammys.KUDOS to them both.
13.The colour pink is "in" and that suits me down to a T.
14.George Harrison is still alive even if John Lennon isn't.
15.The Onion may have relocated to NYC but I'm certain it will remain intrinsically midwestern at heart.
16.The Milwaukee Bucks are looking GOOD this season.(You GO Ernie!)
17.My guitar chord changes are beginning to sound SHVEET.
18.Someone just brought me a latte and it's sitting on my desk.
19.The Donnas have a new album out.
20.The higher your heels, the closer you are to the gods.
Wednesday 14th
Happy Valentines Day everyone!!!!!! Red roses and creepy wee teddy bears all around!!!
Read a marvellous quote from The Radio TImes by Martin Sheen this morning.I quote verbatim:
"George W Bush is like a bad comic working the crowd.A moron.....if you'll pardon the expression."
Ha ha ha......it made me laugh out loud!!!!!
Talking of which.......I wish the republicans would leave poor old Bill Clinton in peace.Enough already.Show some fucking RESTRAINT you assholes.The man is GONE.Isn't that enough for you? WHat the hell do you want? To execute him for doing precisely what every other president before him has ever done?!?!?!?!??! Those Republicans should read their bibles from cover to cover one more time......except this time turn the book the right way up.Haven't they ever read the part that deals with the stoning of the woman caught in adultery? Have they forgotten that age old adage:HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN,CAST THE FIRST STONE?I swear they won't be satisfied until they've killed him.It makes me want to vomit.
As for the domestic upheaval in my own beloved country................forget the liberal and forgiving philosophy per the above and apply it in reverse: Seize Margaret Thatcher from her home in the middle of the night and place her on public trial for her hateful crimes against humanity in the past.For the constant undermining of our schools,our hospitals and our public transport services.For disregarding the concept of social integration and community care and instead preaching the glorification of the individual and the pursuit of self.For willfully encouraging the division of our country into the haves and the have nots and for creating a legacy of such revolting proportions that subsequent governments are destroyed by the chaos that ensues.
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY DEAR WORLD
Thursday 15th
Strange day today. Woke up feeling absolutely exhausted and so completely devoid of any get up and go that I had to cancel my early morning training session.Consequently I'm riddled with guilt and self disgust and the rest of the day's rythmn has been set way off track.Oh well.........nevermind. In an attempt to right the wrongs of the morning I loaded myslef up at WholeFoods with as many healthy taste treats I could find only to be hijaked upon arriving at the studio by Butch offering me to poke inside his bag of Cheetos. Ouch.
