[Nov. 23rd, 2009|05:09 pm] |
So I'm watching The Girlfriend Experience by Soderbergh and it stars real-life porn star Sasha Grey as an high-end escort with a boyfriend. If I were a man that had bought Sasha Grey for an escort, I'd be BORED TO TEEEARS. She has this slow, subdued voice that makes me want to strangle her. Also, this movie is less about escorts and more about the economic crisis, because that's all that anyone talks about.
Anyway, hello! I forget that people read this, and whenever I'm reminded, I immediately want to post. The reason for this post is Kelly's last phone call.
This last weekend was like being at some vacation resort. The second I got off work on Friday, I EXPLODED out of my desk because Ryan planned this crazy/awesome night where he bought me dinner, we watched Reincarnation, a Japanese horror flick that I fell asleep and had to re-watch the end of, we played pool, came back home and watched another movie (the life story of Martha Stewart) and didn't go to sleep until 6am. We didn't have breakfast until 2 in the afternoon the next day.
Saturday and Sunday were pretty much exactly the same. Variations: Playing Left 4 Dead 2 with Garrett (AMAZING), Hanging with Alex for her birthday (I ate fancy seafood at Shaw's), partying with old IU buddies (some I had no idea lived here!)...but mostly it was Ryan. Being with him is like being at an amusement park.
I'm holding on for Tuesday, because Tuesday night I GET TO GO HOME FOR THANKSGIVING!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I haven't seen my mother since the 4th of Fucking July! I've NEVER wanted to see my mother and brother more than RIGHT NOW. And not to mention Kelly! Ahhhhhhh! I promised Keenan I'd take him to some horrible metal/screamo band, and Kelly might take me to A BLUE JACKETS GAME!!! I'd truly lose my shit, I think.
OH we had a show last Wednesday and a small diy record company came to see us and want to help us record a 7-inch and distribute it! Yaaaaaah! They seemed like really nice guys and they truly want to help us go on to bigger and better things. So that's another great thing too.
Ahhhh also I'm having dinner tonight with Megan Flynn, who did makeup for Hedwig when Ryan Wells and I were in it and Anneliese directed! I haven't seen her since the second time I did Rocky in Bloomington. Chicago is a vaccum that sucks in all the awesome people. I'm trying to suck in P Jordan, but heaven knows where that nugget of love will end up.
Welp, that seems to be it on my end. HAPPY SANKSGIVING!!! |

1. The Cell Phones went up against 77 bands at a Battle of the Bands at the Elbo Room...and won. We won first place. It was a freaking crazy surprise, and now we get to record 4 tracks for free! We've got another guy that wants to pay for us to record an EP, too! Things are definitely looking up for this little band of mine.
2. I've dated a guy for HALF A YEAR. We're on unknown ground now, at least for me! Really it feels like a year and a half, but who's counting*? Either way, it's a big deal for me because for the first time ever, I'm in a relationship that has lasted more than a flipping month, and I'm in love and actually 100% sure about it. I even said the L-Word the other day, and I don't mean Lesbian. It went like this:
Me: I love you, Ryan.
Ryan: Aw, you're sweet. I love you too.
Me: [STARTS CRYING?!]
Ryan: Please don't cry.
Me: [STILL CRYING] Sorry, hearing that just meant a lot to me.
Ryan: [very nonchalantly] I've always loved you.
Me: [CRIES EVEN HARDER!!!!! SAYS ADORABLE THINGS THAT ARE GIRLY AND LAME!!!]
Ryan: Please don't be gay.
3. I've been in Chicago for 2 years. I love this place so hard, but then again, winter hasn't come yet. My job is still tolerable. I don't sleep, but I'm still well.
4. At any given time, my clothing has cat hair from 3 different cats. Sometimes 4. All my friends have cats that love me.
5. Bloomington better WATCH OUT because I'm comin' for the Rocky Horror Screening! AND I'm bringing the band! We're gonna play Collins on Halloween afternoon and I'm kind of freaking out about going back to Bton and EATING FOOD! OH MY GOD MOTHER BEARS! OH MY GOD RUNCIBLE! OH MY GOD TROJAN HORSE AND VILLAGE DELI AND NOM NOM NOM!
6. We're ALSO gonna play in Indy on November 1st. Indy Friends: COME SEE US!
7. I have to pee, so I guess I'm done. Once I can find the cord to my camera, I'll put up a pic or two.
8. I love you. I'm sorry it's been so long. Sorry I'm too busy to tell you how I am. I miss you and hope you're all doing okay.
9. *burp*
10. That really happened.
*I am! |

| 5 Things I'd Like to Warn You About |
[Aug. 11th, 2009|02:47 pm] |
1. NEW KINGS OF CONVIENIENCE ALBUM OUT IN OCTOBER! It's been five years since their last one and I'm more than ready for some new shit. Yay!
2. Leo DiCaprio and Ridley Scott plan on doing Brave New World. Yay?
3. Hottie Hot Hot Ryan Gosling (if you haven't seen Half Nelson or Lars and the Real Girl, SEE THEM NOW) formed a band with a friend and a bunch of children. It's spooky and awesome. Here's a YouTube of a performance.
4. Watch Southland Tales if you want your brain to melt. In a moment of sheer retardation, I watched it on Netflix Instant, and I have some choice words for Richard Kelly. One: Read Watchmen or V for Vendetta and see how popular lyrics should actually be used in a story. And I hate you for using the Killers. And Jane's Addiction. And Mandy Moore as an actor. Two: A policeman says "Flow my tears." YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOO FUCKING CLEVER. Three: you can NOT throw Rebecca Del Rio in a movie and expect it to be Mullholland Drive, you David Lynch film Masturbator. Especially if you have her singing the Star Spangled Banner and not something cool like "Cryin'" in Spanish, you fuck dumb-shit MAKE ANOTHER MOVIE TO REDEEM YOURSELF RIGHT NOW.
Roger Ebert's review of it is pretty awesome, seeing as he was there when it played (and BOMBED) at Cannes.
5. Alan Moore is releasing a book called "Unearthing" IN 2010 and it will have a ROCK SOUNDTRACK. Thank you for still writing, babe.
(More shit later!) |

Hello. Here are some things that happened.
Chicago Gay Pride Parade: I saw a man with boobs (no nipples) and a penis. I saw it all. It damaged my brain. I would like to be held.
Fourth of July: Lots of family, LOTS OF FOOD, lots of RAIN, and my brother in skinny jeans. Gram wants me to come back and stain her deck. I told her I'd do it if I could bring help slash a male prostitute.
Sonic Youth Concert: MELTED MY FACE. I sure hope Kim and Thurston are swingers, because it's my life's dream to have sex with them simultaneously.
Hell, Lee Rinaldo can come too.
Fiery Furnaces Concert: MATTHEW FRIEDBERGER MADE EYES AT ME! TWICE!!!! If he had done it one more time, I would have mauled him. Both Friedebergers were walking around before the show, and I couldn't approach them because I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. Instead I bought a shirt and gushed about them to Ryan while he smoked and rolled his eyes at me.
This is them 2 days after the Hideout show in Grant Park.
Band Update: WE HAVE A VAN! It's a green Chevy Lumina and already has us broke. Oh so broke. Also, the shithole where we keep our band stuff locked us out. We weren't even really crazy late on rent, either. We've been there for over a year, and really that's no way to treat one of your longest-standing renters. Hopefully the van will allow us to do more shows and eventually make more money.
Arlington Park: Last Sunday, Ryan took me to go bet on horses. I won only once (to the tune of SEVEN DOLLARS) and we left excited, broke, and very hungry. Then he took me to Susie's in his old neighborhood and we ate UBER junk food that I don't think I've fully pooped out yet.
Improv Gladiators: Justin and I are doing it again. I continue to not be so good at improv.
HALLOWEEN: If I can manage it, I'm going to Bloomington TO DO ROCKY HORROR AGAIN!!! They asked me to do it again! I was very happy that after 1 year not doing it, they want me back again! I'll do it only if I can get a gig there for the band. Annie T said she'd road trip too, so I'm excited about bringing some Chi kids with me!
Anyway, that's everything in a nutshell. Other things I did today:
- Listened to this song on repeat. BEST SUMMER SONG OF THE YEAR right here, my friends.
- Cried in front of a banker to get an overdraft fee lifted.
- Drank more water than is physically allowed.
Ooookay, that's enough. I hope you all are equally well. |

| Hey Goo. What's new? |
[Jun. 26th, 2009|01:31 pm] |
( This is a post I never sent 2 Mondays ago. It was a bad monday and a good previous weekend. There. I basically just summed that up. )
THIS week was pretty great too. Ryan was gone all last week. He hates that I miss him. I think he associates "I miss you" with "You're not here and I am sad. How could you go and make me sad? I HATE YOU FOR MAKING ME SAD!"...which is not the case. It's more like "I miss you but when you return I will MAUL YOU LIKE A TIGER ON SIGFRIED!"
...Or was it Roy?
Aaaanyway. The Cell Phones made the mistake of drinking a pitcher of margarita before practicing. It was like watching 5 year-olds try to play music. We decided to never do that again. The pitchers at Garcia's could kill a bear. Well, make it drunk first and THEN kill it.
I have fallen victim to Heat Rash. My skin just can't handle it! Usually I get nose allergies n' such, but it's been all gross skin allergies. I hate it cuz I feel like a leper or something. And I don't feel sexy anymore in low-cut shirts. I have noticed that the more water I drink the less annoying it seems to me, so I'm trying to remain hydrated. A dermatologist trip is in the future, I think. Yuck.
I'm reading In Cold Blood (in English before I attempt to read it IN GERMAN) and it's absolutely amazing. I've been having a hard time finding a good book after The Crying of Lot 49 and V and this book is rocking my face off. I mean, yeah, everyone says this is a good book and I am being redundant, but really. It's just a perfect slice of America told really well. By a gay. I love it.
This weekend I'm seeing SONIC YOUTH!!!! I want Kim to sing "Kool Thing" and I want Lee Rinaldo to sing, gosh, everything! They've been together for over 20 years and they still own the genre of noise rock. I can't waaaaaaaait!!
Also this weekend: Chicago gay pride. Oh my stars and garters. |

| Four things: |
[Jun. 3rd, 2009|04:10 pm] |
You know me and my love for lists (...OR DO YOU?!)
1. I had a rough day yesterday. I couldn't seem to do any of my easy receptionist tasks correctly or on time. Today has been a less heinous version of yesterday. Everyone has been a bunch of bitchy animals. I completely blame the soggy 50-degree weather we're having IN JUNE!!! In retaliation, I wore the LOUDEST DRESS I OWN, so this drab-ass weather knows I'm not messing around. I'm serious. This dress is INSANE. I'll try and put in a picture.
2. I spent all evening with Ryan, which made the day INFINITELY better. He thinks my loud dress is the ugliest dress he's ever seen, but says that I can pull it off (story of my life). We got drunk on margaritas and I tried to watch IT but fell asleep instead.
3. JAY REATARD IS GONNA HAVE ANOTHER ALBUM OUT SOOOOOON! For now, I've got new ones from Phoenix (French Indieshit!), Grizzly Bear (NUMBER 8 ON BILLBOARD!), and Black Moth Super Rainbow (electro-stoner music!).
4. My dear god, I need to work on something and stick with it. It's too easy to spread myself thin. But I have decided to do the following three things:
One: FINISH THE JOYCE PLAY BEFORE I WRITE ANOTHER THING.
Two: Write lyrics daily. One song a day. No music, just lyrics. And when Ryan makes a song up, I'll have plenty of words to fill it with.
Three: Tarot cards, motherfucker! I think I'm re-doing them altogether using primarily office supplies. We'll see how that goes. |

| Tarot Reading: Question - What's the future of The Cell Phones? |
[May. 20th, 2009|04:03 pm] |
I need to get back into drawing tarot cards. Doing random readings encourage me, so here I go!
Since I don't seem to have any super-horrible problems (even the usually-bad areas are being currently awesome) I decided to ask the Tarot Spread Generator I found (since I can't buy myself a deck cuz that's BAD LUCK)what will come of The Cell Phones. I got this:
Card 1 (Present): Justice. Things have been fair, for the most part.
Card 2 (Obstacle): The Devil. Laziness, lack of self-motivation.
Card 3 (Distant Past): Two of Pents. The juggling card. Each of us are used to juggling our Real Lives with our Play Lives.
Card 4 (Recent Past): King of Pents. The money-maker. Being in this band is emotionally and socially RAD AS FUCK, but money is often an unspoken focus (cuz we don't have any).
Card 5 (Best Possible Outcome): The Sun. This is a WAY HAPPY card. It's all about youth and success comin' atcha like a sunrise. Basking in well-deserved rays of happiness n' all that. I'd say that's a pretty schweet outcome.
Card 6 (Immediate future): Eight of Wands. This card often describes sudden action or burst of energy. Maybe one of the four press kits we sent out will make stuff happen for us in a rapid manner.
Card 7 (Affecting Factors): Four of Pents. The Miser Card. This makes sense, seeing as we often become a little TOO focused on money (like not doing shows if we don't get real paid) and those that book us can also often become too focused on money (by not booking us cuz we don't bring in a large enough crowd or whatever).
Card 8 (External Influences): Temperance. This card is about balance, discarding one thing while replacing it with another. Lately we have been in a bit of a balance struggle LITERALLY, what with us all being so loud and not being able to balance our sound out without giving everyone in the room a huge headache. That might have to do with our overall obstacle.
Card 9 (Hopes n' Fears): Three of Cups. This is the 'Work as one' card. Isn't it interesting that it's a THREE and the card means to work as one?! Hmmmmmmm? Did you just denounce me as a witch?! Hells yeah! Obviously, that card signifies a biiiig hope for us.
Card 10 (Final Outcome): Ace of Pents. Pretty much, the whole Pentacles suit represents monetary or material wealth. This card appears when there's a boost of that. Soooooooo I think it's safe to say that we'll be successful on the monetary front.
Final Evaluation: Things have been good, but we're getting lazy and lacking in funds or any energy to carry out the million things a band's gotta do. Money remains an issue, but with a little of the old Hopestuff and some elbow grease, something will turn up and turn up fast, and it only looks like it's getting better! |

To all my dear friends that had March and April birthdays:
For some weird reason, I can't remember birthdays within these two months. Probably because there's just too damn many of you (because your parents liked gettin' it on in the summer, all unprotected-like). But just the same, you all are one year older and that means one year awesomer. And one more year my friends *toothy grin*. Have a good 'nother year, and make it count!
Love,
Lindsey.
So I'm gonna get really extra girly here. ( Forgive me. )
Other than Lovey-Dovey Spring Fever taking up all of my brain power, the band is good (we want to start playing bigger venues), work is good (I'm the only one on the phones so I'm practically unfireable), and life is good (I'm gonna retrieve my bicycle from a train stop and ride it down to Garrett's, where I will play video games until I'm dead).
But my stomach is empty. Bye! |

| [ | soundtrack of my life |
| | Wavves, "To The Dregs" | ] |
Dearest Livejournal, I know I have abused you. Let me make up for that.
Here are the big sections of my life, sectioned off and summarized for your reading enjoyment. And once you're through, you'll be all caught up!
My Teeth: Oh god. I got my wisdom teeth out at the end of March and STILL I have holes in the back of my mouth. They're gross and get food caught in them. It hurt so bad that I was taking vicodin and ibuprofen around the clock for a week. Then it was just ibuprofen. My liver hated me a lot. When I told the dentist at my follow-up that I was in so much pain, he was like 'your procedure was difficult, of course you're gonna hurt!' And I'm still taking one or two motrin a day. And I am DYING for some popcorn!!! Buuuut, I have lost some weight, since I'm a tad more careful with what I put in my mouth. Maybe I should be a bit more careful of what I put into my mouth (PS I MEAN PENISES).
The Cell Phones: This is where all of my energy goes now. Despite that, I'm feeling a little stuck. We need to play bigger shows and play with bigger bands and have a good recording and A FUCKING VEHICLE, but we don't do or have any of those things. We do have some money savin' up, so there's something. I just feel like if we had some kind of rich benefactor that loved us and wanted to give us all kinds of money, then we'd be sitting prettier. We'd at LEAST have a good recording (4 different people have recorded us now and we're still not finding a good sound). Our demos look cool, though.
Acting?: I'm not in any more shows right now, and I'm thankful for it. I need the break. For now, it's all band stuff and playwriting. I'm trying to finish the Joyce play (and I'm close, oh so close), and after that jump into a play I've been thinking about since junior year of college: Penny Carmichael, The Greatest Actress on Earth. And after that, I'm gonna try some sketch comedy with Justin and Alex. We are trying to encourage each other.
My Fam: Mom is pre-menopausal and having to deal with my pubescent 13 year-old brother who is perhaps the most irresponsible teen on the planet. Though I miss my mom n' bro every five seconds, I'm really happy I don't live with them. I'd definitely add to the crazy.
Keenan visited in early April, which rocked my world. I showed him a flipping good time by keeping him up late, walking him all over Chicago, and making out with a dude onstage at Improv Gladiators. I gave him his first beer (Mom didn't approve) and CRIED LIKE A BABY when he left me. I've never missed someone so hard in my life.
Friends: A lot of visitors lately! I had David Allen over (for recording), Hey Hey Melodica (for playing with us), Joyce Thompson's improv group (that was waaay last-minute), and Peggy! If I ever move into a place by myself, I'd have to get a one-bedroom, so I can have visitors over.
My bestie Kelly came to visit for days n' days, and aside from spending SHITTONS of money, I got to see her pretty face and raspberry her soft arms and love on her. We spent all Saturday with each other and I felt like I'd shown her a good time.
My Non-Relationship: *grin*
Chicago Sports: The Blackhawks are in the playoffs! I want to get tix to one playoff game, but they're 'spensive. For now, I'm just going to bars and watching games there. But I'm excited because I've been following them all season with Ryan. We went to watch a game at United Center and it pretty much set the Hawks in my heart for life. There's one tonight and I'm happy about it.
Right Now: I'm getting ready to go home. Two people have quit this week. It's getting very quiet around here, but at least I'm currently un-fire-able. I'm the only one on the phone system. My hair is straight up like Marge. I miss you. |

It's Valentine's Day, so let's talk about love.
I had the kids show today. I really missed the Mileep cast, so it was good to spend a few hours with them today. One of them gave me a flower and one of them gave me a shot of Jameson.
I sent Ryan a text that said "Happy V Day, babe. If you were here, I'd be all gay and girly on you. You may roll your eyes to this text only once." and in reply I got "I tried to roll them twice, but had an epileptic seizure. Big fun."
On the topic of him, things are as they always have been. Silly, vague, but fun. Even more fun lately. I've reached a point where I could care less about what we're called. I like him, he likes me, we enjoy each other's company, and we care about each other. Fuck the rest. He's been in Indy all week and yes, I miss him. I won't apologize for it, either.
I've been listening to Animal Collective and MGMT and Chromeo. I'm a hipster fuck and it scares me.
For the past hour, I've been laying on the couch curled up with Meat watching the X-Files. He's the best boy cat ever.
We have a show at my fave dive bar The Mutiny on Thursday. ( Here's the Flyer for it. ) The flyer serves also as my annual Valentine's Day picture because it portrays basically everything I think about when I think about February.
I think that's all I got. I love you, and I hope your VD is either as good (or as bad) as you hoped.
*smooch*
Wait.
*HUMP!* |

I found a lion headpiece at the Cornservatory and thought it was for a sheep. So I took a picture of me with some paper in my mouth. After seeing the picture I realized that subconsciously, I was referencing something.
Artist and Bjork Baby-Maker, Matthew Barney as The Apprentice in Cremaster 3.
I stole Ryan's copy of the huge Cremaster book and I've been reading the shit out of it before I go to bed, and now it's inside of my brain, because I did NOT pre-plan that shit out. I blame Eric Zobel.
Speaking of Eric Zobel...well, let me start this weekend backwards:
Sunday: Ryan and I painted the set for the kids show that I'm in (I'll get some pics later) and I made him listen to Nixon in China. And he loved it (swoon). We took a small break to watch the Super Bowl with Garrett and Friends. Then we painted to Green Day and Suffocation and effing DJ SHADOW which apparently all members of my band love. Anyway, the set looks like a Mega Mindfuck. I'm excited to see what the director thinks. Also: I RODE A BIKE IN 25 DEGREE WEATHER AND DIDN'T DIE OF PAIN OR COLD OR ACCIDENT!
Saturday: I woke up at 9am to Co-Worker Jen telling me the laptop I mailed out wasn't scheduled to arrive in Tampa until Monday instead of Saturday and I could not have given less of a fuck. I spent all day, from 12pm to almost 12am at the Cornservatory doing either tech for the kids play or Improv Gladiators or cleaning their costume room. At the end, Annie T and I fell asleep watching Suicide Club after eating beef jerky.
Friday: I toiled at work until I exploded out of the office to meet the boys for practice before the show at Cal's. Our ride fell through and Peechiz, my Knight in Shining Prius saved us. The show was awesome, we played with some sweet peeps (who also thought we were sweet). Then there was a James Brown Cover Band and I wanted to die. They were all dressed like bar-workin' punk-rock hipsters and played perfect fucking funk. Ryan stayed with me to watch them and we got paaaaid (not too much but some!) and I stayed at his Argyle apartment for the last time cuz he was moving the next day.
This week is crazy Childrens Play Tech Week and I don't know when or if I'll get to sleep at all this week. I'm downing Diet Pepsi Max all over the damn place. |

I'm here.
If being busy was a sexual act, I'd be close to death, probably arrested and definitely put in the Guiness for "Most Time Spent On Head While Using Power Tools". Long story short (too late), I'm busy.
I am in a children's play at the Cornservatory where I portray a slightly dumb alien named Pow. Pow talk in third person and limited grammar. Pow like the ladies. Pow total rock star.
On top of that, I'm also an Improv Gladiator. Every weekend the Corn puts improv groups against each other and I get to play fun games with them. My gladiator name is Nona Sequitur. Apparently I'm really good at the Speak-Only-In-Questions game.
On top of THAT, The Cell Phones are playing show after show. We had one last week (flyer) and another one this week (flyer). Woooo shows! Woooo shows means wooooo money and woooooooo MORE SHOWS! I got Division and Honore to open for us (this guy named Brandon that plays all over town and sings to his ipod and projector screen and IS HILARIOUS) and all agree it's the best decision I've ever made. He liked us too, so hopefully we'll have more shows together. I kind of have a Peer Crush on him.
Oh! TO ALL MY PEEPS LIVING IN INDIANAPOLIS: THE CELL PHONES ARE DOING A SHOW AT LOCALS ONLY ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 27TH. REPEAT: I WILL BE IN INDY ROCKIN' THE HELL OUT AND SO SHOULD YOU. END TRANSMISSION. I hope that's enough heads-up for you guys. It seems like it's gonna be a really awesome show with really awesome friends n' family.
Also: I have never worn the same outfit twice to a show. Not yet, anyway; I'm running out.
Obama's inauguration should be a national holiday. I'd like to call that holiday HELTER SKELTER. If Manson were alive, he'd agree with me.
My wisdom teeth are bothering me so I've got a dentist appointment today. *Shudder* I fucking hate the dentist, especially when I know there are going to be horrible scraping noises in my head and obvious surgery-needing. A mere cavity at this point would be comforting. |

( 12 Albums That Got Me Through 2008: )
New Year's Eve was lovely! Annie Toft had a party, and completely fulfilled my 2 requirements: 1. Get Drunk, 2. Dance. She let me use my iPod and I drank a crazy amount of cognac with David Allen. In between dancing, we called Matt Kerchner and told him we'd have a 4-way with him (and something about Grover Cleveland), apparently I fell asleep in the hallway standing up, and I got smooched by a boy.
New Year's Day was also pretty great: Ryan and I nursed our hangovers, watched the Blackhawks game and ate Itallian Beef, then we found Justin and saw Frost/Nixon, which was pretty boss, Mr. Howard. And we practiced and I went to bed at a semi-reasonable hour (cuz I worked today. I've done next to nothing).
And tonight, we have a show! It's at some bar that I've never been to, but I think we're gonna rock some serious house, now that I know where both members of my band are. Check out our flyer!
I hope your New Year's events were also lovely. Here's to another awesome year! Clink! |
