listening to this all these years later has been sort of interesting. my influences on this track are really blatantly obvious...
it's actually a pop song. honestly. it's also maybe the only song in this collection where i give my age away clearly. this couldn't have been written by an adult.
the instrumental at the end is also something i spent many hours playing, by myself, and is also much older than 1996.

demo #7: phased out / blue
this is actually two tracks, but one sort of functions as an intro to the other. sort of.
the instrumental beginning is something i used to play for hours at a time in my room by myself as a sort of calming mechanism. it's much older than this demo....
the second part is, lyrically, an obvious homage. again: i was 15. on the other hand, i think it captures my idiosyncratic sense of humour quite well. musically, it's a noisy, messy and yet catchy thing - one of my favourites in this group of tracks.

out of ideas for the shower

To: the initial landlord
i've tried the things i know how to do and they haven't been successful.
i think i've narrowed it down to the drain, but don't know how to fix it beyond that. i don't know if it can be fixed without pulling it out.
i need to reiterate that it gets worse with each shower because the grout is slowly dissolving. at first it was only leaking near the toilet. now it's leaking near the front, and dangerously close to the kitchen. so, there's a factor of time involved in fixing it.

the other message inbox. just checked it for the first time in a while...
some spam. expected. but the kind of messages that randoms send off out of nowhere, like, i just don't get it. just trying to flip it around, like, could i ever ever ever see myself just randomly suggesting a bdsm hookup to a total stranger over facebook? not that i'm into that in the first place (definitely not), but the sheer gall required to actually make that request is just.....
maybe it's just more evidence that i am not a member of your species.
some of them are sort of cute and funny. no, i don't think i'm going to iran any time soon, but i appreciate the compliment.
most of them, though, are just......i don't understand how people can actually have the nerve for this.....
