Yeah I like my lifestyle too. :) It was a long time getting here and I'm really conscious of how lucky I am to be able to live this way. My parents can see that I'm living comfortably but in their minds, and in the minds of some others, I am still struggling because I'm not saving tons of money and I can't immediately afford to do things like fix my roof, and I could be putting more of my energy towards my career. But I just flat out know they're wrong, life's not all about money. My dad, facing his mortality, finally said to me (a while ago), "you know, when you get to the end of your life, no one says, I wish I'd worked more. I worked too hard and I regret not having more great memories and spending more time with you guys." I am comfortable, I save some money, I'm not hurting, I have everything I need besides some trivial things that don't matter in the end (various material things). And I get to be excited every day and do awesome things that enrich my life. I think a lot more people could be doing the same, but it can be really hard to break out of the status quo of your life (trust me, I know, I spent my twenties doing it with much difficulty).

Used some synthetic urine without any problems so far (temp and color passed, anyway) -- hopefully everything else clears, too. Then I'll start the new job maintaining the motors, valves, VFDs and stuff at a pasta factory. Hey, what can I say -- it pays well, and offers a chance to break through this income ceiling I've hit these last few years. Now I know it's not all about the money, but it's time I started earning more for my labor. There are opportunities I've been wanting to take, like international travel and stuff.

Hell yeah, you should absolutely be happy about your new job! It's not all about the money, but money is still a necessary and useful tool, and if you can get more for your time that's awesome, and you should. :)
 
Oh man, just got a surprise gig, a band that is our friendly acquaintence/friends (have done each other favors, hung out a bit, some of us play at their weekly blues jams sometimes) asked us if we'd do an hour set to open for them at this outdoor woods 2-day festival (probably just a small party really). It's Friday and they asked us this morning. They asked for the band, but 2 of the main members are camping this weekend already, so we asked if we could do our all-instrumental experimental jam group (same people minus the 2 campers and plus our old bass player), and they just said yes! It will be our first show with the jam group. We don't have any lyrics or composed songs, just various feels and a really strong ability to read each other and improvise together. I think we could do a Down By The River cover though because we do it with the full band and the guitar player is the lead singer for it. it would be good to give people some lyrics at some point in a set. But I'm so pumped, we're gonna practice tonight and talk about a rough outline. I really want to jam more on stage, I've done it a lot with just us, and also for a few assorted friends/audience members, and plenty of people have heard recordings, but never an actual show. Seeing as how it's literally my favorite thing in the world, bar nothing, I couldn't be happier. :)
 
hi guys

just came home after a 16 hour bus ride from Amsterdam

pretty damn exhausted, smoking my leftover dutch weed.

psy-fi festival was swell, and I met once again with the mushroom. was good. I hope everybody had a good time. :)
 
Drinking
Mourning yet another to-soon BL departure from this mortal coil
Feeling, honestly, existentially spent
Recovering from an 80 hour work week
Drinking, more, I realize now rather too much
Mourning several losses
Adrift
My day off
What even to do?
 
Xork I love the fact that you're topless in that vid. Cool jam too, never seen that!

I've been getting way too stoned of late. Making slow/poor progress in advancing my life towards anything more pleasant.
 
SKL, I can't believe it either. :(

Longtime Bluelighter and staffer, and friend to so many here, Bardeaux, passed away.

I just learned that one of my favorite posters of all-time, psood0nym, has also passed. I was actually thinking about psood0nym when I was experimenting with 4-aco-dmt, the same day he died.

It's very sad to me, both psood & bardo were, to me, such principal contributors to the BL forum--BL is deeply wounded, and these new scars cross with those of knock, sepher, and so many other amazing people who have perished.

^ I think I'm feeling a little loss of motor control, like after a small amount of alcohol, but nothing really intense. Also, things seem to sometimes look a bit more "red" than usual... There's no nausea at all, which is a good thing.
 
Holy shit, the realisation of the recent losses to Bluelight are really soul crushing. Both these guys were fucking awesome. I'd love to hear more about what has happened. :(

<3 to the families and friends.
