6/12

i think i’ll skip the dog walk although i’ll feel guilty — felt pretty shitty this morning — have been eating too much and ate too late yesterday — kim working overtime — i spend the evening eating

the notes are getting near the end of another scan — this is the first time i’ve made a coherent scan of the entire ‘text’ [of the notes] — i should be finished before we go to galveston — then take a break and start working on web design

i think i need to take a nap
lost track of time — staying busy — copying CDs and doing misc things — i need to focus for a while — notes and then house cleaning

got book about acker — ronnell essay looks very good — at one time i considered myself rather non-addictive because i avoided addicting drugs and stopped coffee from time to time just to be able to say that i wasn’t addicted

now i can’t stop without getting a headache
now i realize i have addictions — i’m addicted to buying books and CDs
i’m addicted to picking up objects off the side of the road
i’m addicted to gathering things

drugs leave one with nothing
gathering things leaves one with things
but who will want my things — libraries are nearly obsolete — my library should still be worth something but i don’t like the idea of it being broken up

march 19, 2011 (working on now) — was looking at flickr and blogs like things organized neatly —
pinterest (another addiction)

the great thing about it is that one can make ‘books’ that are different from anything published — i’m afraid that it will all go offline or something but any books can be destroyed — in the meantime they work better than the illustrations in the books in my library —

i haven’t used it properly — i just started putting pins on more than one board — i should have a lot more boards and the same pins could be on several boards depending on what i want to look at
