wait, hold up. i have no idea what we're talking about.

[blixa]

the piercing right in the middle. you know, my conch piercing.

[bright lights, big city]

gross

[blixa]

the crusty blood is what is gross. it got in my hair. it has stopped bleeding though.

[bright lights, big city]

ok that's good then. i could just never pierce anything. just the notion of knowingly shoving a needle entirely through something on my body never sat well with me.

[blixa]

my mum took me to get my ears pierced when i was a very small child. i don't remember this happening but while my mother was paying for the piercing i wondered out onto the sidewalk and someone stole my new earrings right out of my ears. i just stood and let them do it. not that there was anything i could've done about it hahaha.

i kind of promised myself that i'm not getting any more piercings. i got told that i now appear even more standoffish with them.

[bright lights, big city]

really? with what, 3 earrings? i've seen a lot women with at least twice that many earrings. I wouldn't necessarily associate having multiple ear piercings with being standoffish. but then again, i'm the just world's most understanding guy.

[blixa]

the earrings just added onto it. i just have that face. it's very standoffish. i always seem disinterested, which i'm not. i just don't like a lot of people. usually men have to be drunk to approach me. i don't know. i think i'm very nice and polite. i guess i could smile more but my mouth is crooked so i feel awkward about turning my scowl upside down.

[bright lights, big city]

well obviously you must be doing something right if you're getting someone lick the blood off your conch.

[blixa]

i wish! no one is licking anything. i clean it out myself. i thoroughly enjoy cleaning and disinfecting. it's fun. dried pus is fantastic.

plus i'm sort of on a celibacy mission. it's going well thus far.

[bright lights, big city]

hey me too! well it's more of a laziness thing i guess for me, since lately all i feel like doing is just hanging out with friends, watching movies, video games, music, etc. basically i don't feel like going out.

[blixa]

thank god for toilets and closets, i almost feel normal when i'm sitting really quietly and pretending i don't exist when someone knocks on the door.

[bright lights, big city]

i think you might have some serious phobia....

[bright lights, big city]

oh I'll tell you what's up duder. It's like 96 degrees here, so I guess about 36 Celsius for you. I had nothing to do today so I went outside for a run this morning. I lasted about 5 minutes before saying "fuck it", and going back home. And since then my roomy and I have just been sitting in our boxers, drinking pink lemonade and catching up on tv watching (Game of Thrones is so great) in glorious air conditioning. A visual of that last sentence really seems kind of gay, but hey we're bros.

On the agenda for the rest of the day? Laugh at people wearing suits in upper 90 degree temperatures, grill some burgers, play some video games. It's everything you think it could be... and so much more.

So yeah what's poppin' with you pal?

[blixa]

hahaha dude, it's so cold here. i wanted to walk to the post office but the wind ate my face.

[bright lights, big city]

ha i love you guys. I know it's winter in Australia, but how cold does it get? I never thought it got THAT cold. I guess I could look it up on wikipedia, but you never know what's the truth anymore http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/post/sarah-palin-fans-fight-over-paul-revere-wikipedia-page/2011/06/06/AGxtzHKH_blog.html

Anyway, today is the same as yesterday. I feel like a beach visit is in order.

[Crazylegs]

I've never felt an urge to go to the beach in my entire life. Maybe it's because i find volleyball to be the lamest sport there is.

[bright lights, big city]

It is lame. If it ain't crowded, I'm more of a guy that would rather play catch with a football or frisbee.

But the main reason is the cold water. And sluts.

[Crazylegs]

Them is some valid reasons.

[blixa]

it gets cold in australia. fair enough, there's no snow but the cold is still bad. our summer's are the worst though. undisputed fact. i've been in america during summer. it's like our spring.

the beach is the devil. dams are better for swimming. the water is cleaner.
