Am finally living alone (40m2 space, no living room, just bedroom, bathroom and kitchen). Kinda pricey, too (it's in Copacabana), so I'll try to get some freelance translation gigs on the side to help with the finances. But man, does it feel good to come home to silence and darkness. So today's plans are just... arriving home early, working out, then have pretend dinner (trying to cut down on some calories), then hammer away at the old keyboard (trying to finish a play). There might be booze & jays involved.

Be careful man. It took +2hrs from unpacking before things got weird living alone. I'm talking full on nude gourmet cooking blasting music you don't want anyone else to know you listen to.

Fuck, man. Why you gotta live alone for that? When Pedro and I were first married we had a housemate, and he was a little weirded out the first time he came home and I was in the bathtub, up to my neck in bubbles, sipping white wine and blasting "Dazed and Confused" so loud it made the windows rattle.

In retrospect, I probably should have closed the bathroom door, but what the fuck ever. He got over it...eventually.

Thanks for the headsup Keith!

Jeez guys now you done and got me all fired up for some drunken dangling dongle action (so far the "wackiest" thing that happened was a bottle of wine exploding in my face and adjacent wall because I was trying to open it without a corkscrew. Now the wall looks all abstract art and shit. Also I may or may not have been washing my "cutlery" with vodka [don't worry, it's undrinkable stuff] b/c I forgot to buy dish soap).

Oh, also, we just say j's.  not jay's, just fyi.

I think 'compete in the established marketplace you pussy.' Is my favourite ache wood quote.


Edit: also just checked into a sweet B&B in Venice and went out for a quick dinner, nothing a amazing: a simple pizza with anchovies such as a man might eat, olives on the side and a glass of the house red with an espresso to follow. An excellent start though, made even better by costing only 12 euros.

I knew I had gotten it from somewhere close.

i was gonna say "the fuck if i don't say jays" and as usual the lady waterfield is fastest on the draw

As soon as I posted I thought about that.  Dude takes liberty with words, sometimes it could be hell of wrong, at least compared to what people actually say.

So yeah, just if you are translating a book or something Deja, know it is j.

[theinevitable]

Am I losing my mind? What is the difference between "j" and "jay?" I say them the same.

It is starting to seem like we aren't gonna get a spring. It is alternating between being in the 40s, and the mid or upper 80s. Bullshit.

[Choop]

it's prescriptivism run rampant

[KeithHernandez]

Oh there's no difference, just basketball shots and marihuana cigarettes are j's, people are named Jay.

Oh, marihuana cigarettes, yes, those are j's. Marijuana joints, however, are jays, just as cannabis cigars are jeighs and a ganja cigarillo is called a jough.

There are not enough cans

I think Vicky is building a perpetual canning machine.

Saturday is a rugby day. So I submit to that grinder for the next 2 hours.
