bon jovi is our neighbor
we are shooting the video in a crazy loft in nyc. turns out jon bon jovi owns one of them (in the same building). crazzzzyyyy. i’ve always wanted to ask jon about his lyrics in bed of roses. mainly because my friend andy always used it in reference to the worst lyric of all time.

How'd My Heart Get Caught?
Taking off from the whirlwind page
Balance what I’ve fought
Pulling teeth to cross a bridge
Careful
Don’t get shot
If loving you’s the perfect job
Then why’s it hurt so much?
If loving you’s been avoiding games
Then how’d my heart get caught?
Take a bath without you here
Now my skin keeps wearing off
You’ve been absent-minded dear
Can’t...

Quebec City
Going back to that beautiful place. I haven’t played Quebec City a whole lot in my life. Not nearly as much as Montreal or Toronto even. But it is rapidly becoming my favorite place. Last time, with Martha, was delicious. And I’m hoping it’ll be just as good tonight with Joseph Arthur. I want you to know (Quebec City), that I’m coming to giv’r. I want to play every...

Is our big love on the wane?
Or is it wrapped up in vigor?
Two of us and a mirror, toothbrush in your face
Four of us splashing water, honoring what we’ve made
Don’t be afraid
it’s what we say
it’s what we say
Started to feel it, starting to shake
I kiss you so strong, I’ll bite off your face
Clutching at what we stand for, passionate ricochets
Clutching at this here war zone, bloodbath...

the wonderful artist who contributed her awesome “loveshit” painting of me to the album artwork. an uncompromising soul. an honest human being. a woman with a unique outlook on life. caroline sees things in a beautiful, twisted, colorful way. an unpredictable loud living soul. a true artist. the best kind.
the original didn’t have yellow… i must thank caroline for...

the knot you tied around my neck is yours to keep for when your bed breaks; it helps me breathe & rest in red
“spin me round & push me like you did before, on that dance floor”

early bedtime
It’s 9:39pm and I’m thinking of hitting the hay. The holidays have been quite relaxing and filled with alone time. Nip Tuck Season 3, Xbox, Nick Hornby novels, Habs, World Junior Tournament, Sushi, Fresh Fruit Juice, Fair Trade Coffee have all been on the menu.
New year’s eve had fireworks this year. A gorgeous display in the sky despite a lame party. Nice time spent with...
