Julian is totally obsessed. He has goes on my blog every single day, sometimes two or three or more times, from work, and reads things over again. <br /><br />Of course, I, am also completely obsessed. (Of course.) And it took some thrifty detective work (and a full, deep understanding of the way 'cookies' are logged on my traffic counter) for me to realize it.<br /><br />So what the fuck?!?<br /><br />It's been over six months since I saw him last. And there have been all these coincidences, now, looking back, that I've cracked this code......... I can't get him out of my head, and I have tried and been trying, and the reason I can't is because my obsession is feeding off of his and vice versa and it's like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH sometimesScarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-67693073769357300102011-04-30T05:47:00.000-07:002011-04-30T12:37:33.263-07:00for all concerned:<br /><br />officially, have been sweating and in love with and fantasizing and occasionally having odd flirtations with J, for the past... since I stopped "seeing" him as a client, in September.<br /><br />officially done.<br /><br />but really this time.<br /><br />like. its been laid out and said flat out and he wants nothing to do with me...<br /><br />i could explain more of how this came about. but i dont want to right now.<br /><br />and i'll be fine. i think.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-63508708126981332712011-03-16T22:54:00.000-07:002011-03-16T22:59:08.407-07:00sorry i havent been writing... well i cant be sorry... cuz ive been working like a dog... like 30 hour days at the studio... like one afternoon into the next evening... we're getting so much done... and big shows coming up... writing and playing music for commercials now too... so then ill be up for 2 days and then i'll sleep for 14 hours or something... and then i have my sociolinguistics which is such an advanced class and the other students are so good i really have to put in the time...<br /><br />sigh<br /><br />all this good shit came about today but for some reason im just in a foul stinking and sad mood... i know its just chemicals and hormones out of wack so i'm aware of that cuz theres not much to be upset about... but still, when the Feeling happens, it just is. and im positively anhedonic. <br /><br />what else can i say. i still miss julian like an idiot. he sent me an email out of the blue. but it was blank. maybe just a mistake. whatever i really dont wanna think about it.<br /><br />thats it. want this day over.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-19370409067724283032011-03-06T19:16:00.000-08:002011-03-06T19:44:20.111-08:00I Have Changed.I'm sitting in the studio right now. I smell like cigarettes, and I taste like the Saltines I was eating all last night when I was nauseous from a vicodin OD. <br /><br />I don't know how it became an OD, I only took 2 of them, I guess I just had a bad reaction or something... My skin was like burning and everything looked trippy and shiny and I was irritable and nauseous. And my stomach hurt something awful.<br /><br />My place is a mess, my clothes are all dirty, I have bills due, everything I own is ripped up, my hair is dry and my teeth are fucked up and I really have to go to a doctor at some point. I'm tired of sleeping days away. I'm tired of feeling like this.<br /><br />Somehow I'm doing okay though.<br /><br />I had a breakthrough with C. <br /><br />He called me drunk the other night... Really drunk... Was all aggressive and belligerent saying he loved me and he'd been fucking really pissing me off more and more lately just acting WEIRD and trying to give me guilt trips, and passive aggressive shit, and never working on stuff, and always acting so tense and awful when I was around, and I finally just had it.<br /><br />I just fucking had it.<br /><br />I realized, yeah, I thought I had it all made, but you know what, the very thing that I was worried about, that everyone warned about, happened, it happened, and it ruined everything.<br /><br />And I just accepted that. That might just be the way it was.<br /><br />And thought through it all, the whole, you know I came a long way, I've still got this going, it was an experience, I learned things, they won't be unlearned or taken away...<br /><br />And the next day I wrote him that. That ultimately what you're doing is being a shady fucking shitty producer. Trying to act like I'm indebted to you. Dragging your feet. Turning this project you "love so much" that "means everything" to you into a problem, a big, negative, horrible thing, MY world, my everything, and I've been putting up with your shit for months now, and it's been so much pressure, and I've just felt HORRIBLE. HORRIBLE. Still strong. Still level. Still proud and positive. But in many ways, fucking horrible.<br /><br />And that YOU know that this is huge for you too. That you've never done anything like it. And that you, are not where you are today, with respect to your talent, because you've let your emotions, and your fucking bullshit childish shitty attitude and your fears, and your DRINKING, STOP YOU.<br /><br />So if you want to elevate yourself, and live up to your potential, by working with me, you really have to think about that, and clean up your act, and cut this shit out. Because I'm ready to walk at this point. And if this email freaks you out and sends you into your launch of excuses, I dont want to hear it. And if it sends you running. Well, then you would've run away, sooner than later, after stringing me along a little longer. And I don't want to waste my time.<br /><br />...............................................................................................<br /><br />That's what I wrote him. <br /><br />And his response.<br /><br />Was fucking amazing. I mean, the most humble, serious... that was on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning... And since then, it's just been night and day. <br /><br />He told me, he realized, he was just getting out of control with drinking. He saw everything. He apologized so many times. It was real, and it was honest, and it was sincere. And I wasn't mad. I'm not. At all. I said, "It's okay. It's fine. Nothing happened."<br /><br />He said, "No, it's not okay. I can't believe I let myself treat you like that... It's not okay."<br /><br />I said, "Yeah, it wasn't. But it is now."<br /><br />I hugged him. And he said thank you so much....<br />----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />And I meant it, and I mean it. And in the past few days, we've sat down here, working, no tension, no attitude, no bullshit, and gotten almost the entire thing edited...<br /><br />And I just feel so... I don't know. I'm surprised at myself. How strong I've become. And gentle with people. And like... I just feel nothing but tenderness in my heart...<br /><br />But, I'm tired too. I'm exhausted. And I feel a little bit like... I really deserve it now... Whatever good comes... And I deserve a break...Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-85073676109650229842011-03-02T01:34:00.000-08:002011-03-02T01:38:37.776-08:00another issue ive been yearning to get off the proverbial chest is that C is driving me up the fuck a wall. i dont even wanna get started about all the ways in which he has passive aggressively tried to control me and diminish my creative control, or the fact that he's in love with me or in some sort of fucking HAZE of adulation and fear of being alone and having a midlife crisis and finally doing a project on the scale of which he is worthy instead of sitting in his studio writing jingles. <br /><br />he like, really thinks, that the songs are "ours". you know what, i'm willing to eat it on my first record. the truth is unchangeable. people will know it eventually. <br /><br />i'm finally speaking to my lawyer tomorrow. it's a freebie. associate of my ex. so i dont know how in detail i'll get about this WACKED the FUCK out contract, or the fact that there's you know, friendship manipulative emotional ploy shit going on and that i dont want to be backhanded either....<br /><br />but.

like an updatecareer successes notwithstanding. im a mess, sorta, right now. though never as much of a mess as i used to be. how much of a mess can you be when you're suddenly jolted to a-list producer, engineer, a crazy microphone, a fucking ORCHESTRA playing your music, legendary studio and a Yamaha C7 grand.<br /><br />and in addition to your own voice your own songs your own thoughts and lyrics and melodies being given a sort of, UNANIMOUSLY glowing reception, you're about to get paid an arm and a leg too?<br /><br />most of which initially is recoupable to all these other people, but whatever.<br /><br />you have a top lawyer from nyc representing you for free.<br /><br />you'll be fine.<br /><br />and then on top of that. your engineer wants you playing CLASSICAL piano for a record tour.<br /><br />well.<br /><br />and when you co-produced, co-wrote, and starred in a film all about it thats going to be playing at a huge festival in europe in the fall.<br /><br />just before you turn 25.<br /><br />not much really can you?<br /><br />...................................................................................................................<br /><br />you're too busy to really think about it but you have no more outlet except your songs which you've become increasingly cautious about playing in front of anyone at all, because you know the dollar signs in their eyes want to somehow insure their take, and their credit, on something you wrote and performed before you even met them...<br /><br />..............................................................................................................................<br /><br />and you have no more outlet because all these people have found your blog so you have to shut it down.<br /><br />...........................................................................................<br /><br />and you have no more outlet because you can no longer see or talk to your shrink<br /><br />........................................................................................................<br /><br />and you're having a sexless quasi-relationship with your producer who's officially fucking left his wife disclaimers notwithstanding ("please, c, i am NOT responsible for any of this. remember that. please.")<br /><br />...............................................................................................................................<br /><br />and you've reached official STALKED level about JD.<br /><br />.........................................................................................................................<br /><br />you know he's been checking you out online a lot.<br /><br />googling you. you know cuz you have a traffic monitor on your music blog. and you're such a stalker that you've looked at the headers of every email he ever sent you and wrote down ever single IP address. and then you look for similar ones on your traffic count.<br /><br />and then you find a few.<br /><br />but you only found them after you wrote him to check out the videos on it. and it was a complete coincidence, that he actually checked them out for the first time, like an hour before you wrote him.<br />.................................................................................................................................<br /><br />and then, you figured out what his OS was.<br /><br />......................................................................................................<br /><br />and like two days ago, a lightbulb went off, and you started looking back at the logs, and seeing these weird countries. and they had the same OS he does. and it's not a common one. and you checked them out. and realized they were phony proxy servers.<br /><br />..................................................................................................................................<br /><br />your last legit communication was a thank you card he sent you, from his house, for a cd you sent. spoon. "transference." he made a couple weird references.<br /><br />you never see his car at the office lately.<br /><br />you drive around his house.<br /><br />you saw a stroller at the front door last week.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-9560366167582552542011-03-01T13:49:00.000-08:002011-03-01T13:51:52.937-08:00Hey if you can't read this and want to, email me!OK so I'm back on....

I hurled myself against the gate, and bled, my face is covered in huge scratches and I hope they don't scar.<br /><br />The demons come from the people dearest to you, your favorite light. Sometimes they are powerful and they overwhelm you, possess you, as they leave the person across the table... The person across the table says, Wow. All the pain and worries... you just made them go away... We spoke and now they're sitting in the ashtray.<br /><br />Yes, you say. But you feel on edge... You feel sad... You feel exhausted... And two days later, you find yourself in so much pain and filled with so much darkness and rage and you feel them trying to siege at the person across the room. The person with so much light. <br /><br />But you fight them... So you fight yourself... You watch yourself try to destroy you. The demons want to ruin my face, and to ruin my hands, and they wanted it so intensely I hurled myself against the gate, I scratched my fingernails slowly and deeply down my face, I punched the concrete and banged my head on it 15 times. <br /><br />The person across the room didn't want to take on the pain; he stood there and watched and didn't stop me once. <br /><br />I don't know if they are gone; I don't know if he, is now on edge, sad, exhausted. <br /><br />I only know my face is covered in bruises and deep scratches. And it hurts to play the piano. <br /><br />Does anything prevent scarring, can anything keep it from scarring me now...Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-79752175700703518622010-12-29T16:27:00.000-08:002010-12-29T16:35:37.233-08:00Let it be written and let it be doneLaaaa, okay. Laaa, ugh, what to say?<br /><br />On the last leg of work-in-progress, the last push, and there were the holidays, and then Elena's coming here Friday for 5 days, for NYE, and I'm stoked, but, I'm in such a work mode, gahhh... I'll definitely be wanting to go into the stoody at least some of those days, and she's welcome to come but I know she won't wanna come more than once and just sit there for hours, it'll be boring... but... good good all good things I just really wanna finish before my b-day.<br /><br />And I have to get back to Work-Work a little. CASH-POOR. And I have no time right now nor do I wanna interrupt the flow. And I don't wanna drink. And I don't wanna party. <br /><br />MEHHHHHHHHHHHHH<br /><br />When it rains it f.n. pours.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-76462588726106346042010-12-29T03:30:00.000-08:002010-12-29T03:35:32.135-08:00To Bathwater: Your turn to say I told you so.So <a href="http://memento-mori-bathwater.blogspot.com/">Bathwater</a> once commented on one of my frantic Julian posts and said that "now [i'll] go on holding his perfect unattainable image as this romantic ideal, and no one will ever be able to live up to the fantasy."<br /><br />Well B. I think you were right. I've been secretive in this blog largely because I've been busy, with all the stuff I've been working on, just no time or privacy or energy to write, also superstition and not wanting to write about the actual work, cuz it's boring to talk about art, and because some people have found it...<br /><br />But the thing is. I still have these feelings for J, I've had them intensely, and I realize it is something I'm holding onto that serves some weird purpose but... maybe it's time to let it go, for real. <br /><br />So. Maybe it's time to let it go for real. <br /><br />go ahead and say it:Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-5855305724623864012010-12-23T14:59:00.001-08:002010-12-23T15:04:55.249-08:00Still here, still weirdHeh.<br /><br />Yes, I've had to be veiled and secretive. But one possible lurker has just sworn on a stack of bibles they'd stop haunting the place. And I believe him. So, you know who you are, if you're reading this right now, shame on you, it ain't gonna do ya any good, and it's just precisely the very thing I've told you I find disrespectful and unappealing AND, there's a difference between deceit, and keeping secrets, and simply wanting mental privacy; allow me to have my thoughts. They'll only hurt you if you sniff around where you oughtn't.<br /><br />Anyhoo.<br /><br />Quite enough on that. <br /><br />I am currently AT Table Top, and have resigned to the fact that I probably won't see Julian today... Just a feeling... I dunno... It being the holidays and all I wasn't even sure if he'd be in town, but I lurked the parking lot and indeed I see his car. Well, who knows.<br /><br />About the Christmas card--- next post :-)<br /><br />Merry Christmas everyone. Or did I already... I dunno... I don't have any plans :-( Sad, huh? I'll do something though. And Elena's coming here for 5 days for new years!!!!

Falltime. Always busy for every bee.<br /><br />My bed is crap. It's shite. I slept on the floor last night, and I feel okay for the first time in... months?<br /><br />I'm the opposite of a hypochondriac; I just ignore shit 'til it goes away; I'm never sick (well I'm sick sometimes... but its almost always just the direct cause of drug or alcohol withdrawal... hahaha) and I've never had any conditions or anything (hear no see no speak no jinx). So I've actually had mad pain of the Buttbone for like, months, it hurts when I'm sitting down, after like 20 minutes... I have to stand up or shift around-- it REALLY hurts. Like a mother. And I've been saying in the Buttbone, cuz I couldn't really tell what the fuck it was. And I just assumed it was from taking vicoshit or some kind of muscular overuse from dancing or running like a maniac or a wrong move in yoga....<br /><br />And then C one day after sleeping in my bed was like... Now I have that thing too... the pain in the buttbone, haha, and I've never had it before... I think it's your BED...<br /><br />So... I laid down that night... and realized it hurt like a snatch cuz the PoS it so saggy and droopy my whole butt just droops down into the center. And like... I wasn't sure WHY that made it hurt but it seemed like it FN did. And after some extensive google searching, I found the exist fucking symptoms, and its called piniformis syndrome and its a pain in the buttbone, a gluteal glitch, said it happens to athletes and its caused by forward moving sports because the legs move in the direction so much those muscles hypertrophy and make other muscles around them asymmetrically weak (and I fucking was always saying my buttmuscle is hypertrophied if anyone remembers cuz of the ghetto booty and the pain in the buttbone and I thought I made that word up, like, it was a joke) and my BED, makes my legs just go forward all the time like I'm SKIING cuz my BUTT is sunk 3 feet lower than my knees!! Eureeeka!!! and THEN it said it was hard to treat a certain way cuz the piniformis is such a deep muscle (and THATS why it feels like its in the BONES.) So obviously my bed-- is shit. Its a hammock. A hamstrungout hammock, that fucks the hamstrings, and causes piniformis syndrome, which I'm godsworn I had. GODSWORN.<br /><br />And some people go to like PHYSICAL THERAPY over this and take BOTOX injections locally to relax their buttbone and some even go to FN surgery, but like I'm just stretching and sitting differently and conscious of my buttbones being tight and deliberately relaxing them cuz I'm not retarded, and I can do that, so it's going away.<br /><br />Ugh.<br /><br />I CANNOT afford a new mattress.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-72694711634253351642010-11-21T17:17:00.001-08:002010-11-21T17:19:18.028-08:00Hear No, See No, Speak No Evil.hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evilScarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-78890002856238921492010-11-20T20:54:00.001-08:002010-11-21T03:37:34.861-08:00magic.i'm feeling positively mansine.<br /><br />interesting discussion w p tonight about magic powers, magic powers accessed, magic powers understood, magic powers gone haywire.... all relevant topics right now. sigh!!!Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-51298943657447281762010-11-20T03:38:00.001-08:002010-11-20T03:38:40.600-08:00my powers are very strong tonight. oh yes. they have been very strong.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-11728621013988113802010-11-18T19:36:00.000-08:002010-11-18T19:37:15.434-08:00my hair is a lot shinier this color though. finally as shiny as my tiptip's.

I'm saying to C standing outside of the studio in the cold moonlight night. <div><br /></div><div>He leaned back against the whitewashed brick and brought his hand to his chin, as though holding a gun, and pulled the trigger. </div><div><br /></div><div>"Yeah. Trust me... I just, I just had the same experience... when things just inexplicably stop working out, when you just feel like you lose again and again for no reason, it's, it might be telling you something has to change."</div><div><br /></div><div>He sighed and put his hands on my shoulders.

I want to take my own advice; I'm here at the studio right now but there's someone else here which annoys me cuz I was saying I was coming over for hours, I ran here, and he didn't say anyone was over, and I'm kind of... <i>foggy</i>, and tired, and sickish... I just don't feel good, or social, I just don't feel like sitting here with a bunch of dudes. Ugh. </div><div><br /></div><div>Gonna put this down for now. </div>Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-51735885067100985132010-11-10T22:46:00.000-08:002010-11-10T22:52:22.258-08:00I just ran my six miles and I saw, another incredible, I mean the Form of the Shooting Star.<br /><br />I saw it overhead, coming, I was like What...... I thought, okay that must be a really fast plane of some kind flying really low, but then, its silver fat tail glimmered into dust and so did it, breaking off into pieces red and gold...... I couldn't believe it.... a couple cars slowed too.... most of them didn't though... didn't see it... didn't notice... who's looking.....<br /><br />I was right across from Julian's office. Heh. Of course...<br /><br />Now look about C... I'm not, I'm not caught up like this. I don't expect anything from him. I did NOT expect to hear he and his wife are splitting up. Sure, sometimes I have little flights of fancy about stuff in the future. But I care about our goddamn project. Relationships are just not important right now. Despite what my heart says, every now and again.Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975960691860003607.post-72510814469031244632010-11-08T16:18:00.000-08:002010-11-08T16:46:45.973-08:00Walls--And I still have a big old flame burning for Julian.<br /><br />I just saw him. At Table Top again, where I was studying, or trying to study. I had a dream about him last night, that he changed his car and I couldn't find him, it was silly-- but I knew I'd see him today. He walked by me like usual and didn't say anything and went inside and I wasn't even sure it was him and I kept looking in there and when he came out I sort of gave him a salute/"hi" like ooooookay if you're gonna walk right by me, suit yourself. And he stopped and walked over to me and said, You changed your hair...<br /><br />And I said, I'm undercover.<br /><br />And he said What? and leaned in toward me, and I said, undercover.<br /><br />And he said, it suits you...<br /><br />And I said, Are you in a hurry?<br /><br />And he said, I've got a three o' clock, yeah, and I said, Okay well off you go then and he said Okay see you soon, I like your hair, and I laughed.<br /><br />For the record, I'm not in pain--<br /><br />I mean-- sure, I'm in some pain sometimes. Sometimes this hurts and I think oh god stupid stupid why are you wasting your youth on these men but- with C, first things first, and first things are my record things. So whatever happens between us and whatever he's going through and whatever I'm going through doesn't interrupt or impede it only enhances. And it really does. And there's NO ONE else in the world that can do what he does. And I've worried before about, well, what now, are you treating me different, is this gonna be a problem, this can't be this is my life this is my life in your hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and every time he says, stop. stop bringing your past disappointments in here. its my life too. its my work too.<br /><br />And I know to trust him. I haven't been WRONG about whom to trust. And I can't, anyway, fully, I mean, I have high, tall, brick walls up now. Did I see this coming, I'll just say, I didn't NOT see it coming, but, it doesn't matter, it's not the issue, I don't know, I'll deal with it, it's my work, it's my life, it's not bullshit.<br /><br />And I am in less pain, and less often, than I've been in a while.. so...<br /><br />And I don't feel bad for his wife. Or for Julian's. Both of them, I just don't understand, married these boring dull women and got the seven-year itch and then it falls apart and I just feel like, that's just the type they go for. When it comes down to commitment. <br /><br />Is it??Scarlet-Ohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15689865693083233138noreply@blogger.com2
