Holy Haul

Hello. Holy Hollyweird n’ horror haul…. Plus a weeks worth of outfits - cool shirts and a pair of waxed denim Citizens of Humanity jeans in black, normally $480 but got them for $14. And very happy to find the final band tee… I have loved those Sheffield boys since their days jamming with my girl Lana.

My beautiful BFF Jay is having a series of garage sales for a wealth of his B grade movie memorabilia every Saturday over coming months…. They finally have to move after 25 years. That poster and Roger Corman produced VHS I picked up while swinging past yesterday (your Mallrats laser disc was from him, as was my Pulp Fiction one), and he’s digging up more of those plus rarities to do with my favourite directors and any Tarantino stuff. I’ll let you know what he has but took a quick video of some of his VHS and Super 8 selections for sale… none of the movie stuff is over $20. You work as a film critic for decades with SBS and ABC while you have a foot in Sydney’s underground, you end up with a wealth of coolness for film geeks all round. I’m keeping an eye out for you too but the video below includes some of his things… if you want to swing by there on a Saturday let me know, I’ll give you his address (it’s open to the public). He makes me feel good about life and myself, I just feel so warm visiting them… he blurted out “holy shit you look SO beautiful”, and I said “naw thank you, encouraging because I just turned 37 and feel incredibly tired…”, and he says “well you do not look it in the least. 27 at most maybe… beautiful inside and out”.

I gave him a big hug.

Can we just acknowledge how much of a perfect double feature Strange Days and Whip It are? Premium Juliette Lewis. Totally here for her. 🛼 🌟 

I discovered the song Hardly Wait by Polly Jean twice - once after I bought a 4-Track Demos CD from JBHIFI MacArthur in 2004, the second seeing Juliette perform it in Strange Days later that year.

 The remaining movies are on DVD, blu ray and VHS and were part of a $30 op shop haul. And the cool obscure vinyl was $15! Happy me.

Are you happy? All the way deep down I mean? 

Whole?

Side note: I once had a dream I made out with you as I was straddling as you lay down, your hands on my hips (and other things involving me on top) to Arctic Monkey’s Fire and The Thud. Or rather echoing in my mind, as music in dreams tends to do. It was really fucking hot, as we both are together. Also hot, going down on a very beautiful tattooed guy (whether you or my tall lovely boy, I’ll let you decide) to “Real Love” by David Lynch’s flame haired muse, Chrysta Bell. Listen and you’ll see… the rhythm is perfect as is its sensual mood. Sigh...

 Mike said the loss of me is your biggest loss ultimately… one that is immeasurable. I gave up hope, don’t worry. But it’s a loss I share too. Us together involves a courage that… well you know. If you find that courage someday nothing would make me happier and I know it would make you happier too. Anyway… You know I adore you. 

Why are our families so emotionally exhausting? Siblings and parents I mean… 

I’ve been reading lots (doing a re-read of Gordon Ramsay’s memoir Humble Pie, forgot how great it is. Dude had a fucked childhood).  Been watching Industry too (HBO) and really enjoy it as it’s a fantastic show, but when it comes to that world, Billions remains my very favourite and in my top 3 shows ever next to Sopranos and the Wire.

Tried to show you the walking track that is literally my back yard… green all round and really pretty.

Oh, and something else just for you. Just because I aspire to a boring routine life doesn’t mean I have to be boring too… you are incredible and you deserve cool and fun always.

Love you S. Then, now, always.
