11/13

trying to get myself ready to work on the bathroom
saw a nice little bird at the pet shop yesterday — really liked it — seemed so cute and lonely — still have desires for an aviary — want to move into the attic
everything after the bathroom — the main task of the day — everything seems tied in together — <i> can’t seem to get anything done

reflections on the wall — hundreds of art ideas — lots of visual ideas for plywood sculptures last night — <i> need to get organized — clean out little room or move to attic — is my

writing dependent on that? — one thing depends on another — will never get anything done

relationship between Warhol’s book and my interior monologue style — I can’t seem to get it out on paper — perhaps the tape recorder idea is a good one
need a new notebook this month — may just go back to the unfilled ones and go on from wherever I left off and fill them all up — confusion for the critics — take apart and put back together — put the entire thing on the computer — design some sort of word processor — have another coffee and then get busy
classification of everything — separate folders for different projects — need notebooks for my pictures — have to decide how to put them together — check out the office supply stores — binders and folders — get organized
make another pot of coffee — ten o’clock — got to get moving


after 11 — still haven’t gotten myself moving


idea of manuscript book — hand written book — tape book — video tape book could it work for my book — take all my notes and copy and rework them on tape — would take too many tapes — 2 hours goes by too fast — I write too slowly — perhaps one tape of one small section — couldn’t do it for actual writing because its so hard to get together 2 hours of inspired writing and I never know beforehand what is going to come out — perhaps for one of my sexual fantasies — pure verbal pornography on video tape — the ultimate pornography medium
always write when I should be doing something else — constant escape — a born escapist — should be writing so I work on the house — should be working on the house so I write

8/18/20 — now i don’t want to care for any living thing — from time to time i still think of having fish — aquaria or outdoor fish —koi — i no longer have any desire to have birds (a large tropical building would be great if i had a large source of money — an indoor jungle — )
