what a beautiful life what a beautiful life what a beautiful life














what a beautiful life what a beautiful life what a beautiful life

i got this photo from someone commenting on it

so kansas won. i was deep in great scott, but i actually turned my head just in time to see kansas hit the tying three

memphis missed 4 of their last 5 free throws, and i think shot like 1 of 9 for their last shots. this is from glossing sportscenter.

and they didn't take a timeout or foul on kansas's last possession to deny them a three point shot.

well john calipari, you blew it. having blown it before, i feel for ya

great scott was fun tonight. Die Young, DJ DRI.K, and Gui Boratto. hours of dance, pulse and bumps

met some folks, had a good time, got tired and hungry, still lasted late.

i talked to the guy that was doing the visuals, he usually djs.

i talked to a canadian who is getting a phd at the harvard school of public health.

i talked to someone who introduced me to her husband.

i met Vicki from Basstown and one of her friends. good times!

i'm gonna finally get up and go do this lee hecht harrison career counseling thing because i am not doing a good enough job with my resume and cover letter and interviewing and presenting myself.

the dribble drive motion offense that memphis uses is awesome. the california high school coach that created it gets 300-400 calls a year from ppl that are interested.

oh yeah and i've gotta read what color is your parachute. i am going to view this as a good thing. the positive attitude is essential.

whoa i'll actually take the red line tmrw morning, it's been days since i got on the red line. i hope i get a copy of the metro

my legs hurt from standing and dancing, i should take advil before i go out to these dj shows.

it's all about the endgame

the hottest under the sun

































the hottest under the sun

not really. today there was no sun and no heat.

there weren't many ppl at enormous room for dubwise tonight, kind of a weak turnout (i just wrote tournament)

weak tournament then, blame it on the rain the cold and the wind, in that order

i'm sleepy and mumbling on my keyboard. my keyboard mutters and stumbles over diction.

but enormous room was fun, much better than if it's crowded. just relaxing and listening to the dubstep and bassline tunes.

like they say, Bostown Massive, Boston -- Ave It!

snippets -- some don't like toast, some don't jam, some really don't like peanut sauce that goes on pad thai

i drink shirley temples these days. the waitress says "are you kidding me?"

looks like it might be nasty weather today too. no big deal, just smile!

little magic before tragic
























little magic before tragic

this is why, and not why, i am blogging at 3am:

a. i got up at 8am to watch dartmouth womens crew lose to northeastern.
a.a i'm going with my parents at noon tmrw to worcester to see dartmouth heavyweights race holy cross. i was not in worcester, ma when the dartmouth lightweights won the eastern sprints
b. i napped til 1:30
c. the sun will rise tmrw (you remember that movie with tom hanks where he's like stranded on the island? at the end of it he says this inspiring thing where he's like "...and the sun will rise tomorrow...")
d. i hung out with friends in overalls. they were in the overalls. appalachian mountain party or something. you gotta get someone to do A M C with their fingers.
e. we went to beacon hill pub where there was a young alumni of greater boston thing

except that there was no room or space or free food or free drinks. instead it just got crazy and crowded. but i had a blast and really liked talking to all my friends and it made me feel like a million bucks

currently watching the assassination of jesse james by the coward robert ford. it's really really good

prolonged list

f. bought tickets to go to basstown and see gui boratto monday night. gonna hopefully meet some heads. super amped
g. that's it, chillin with m and f. we go on

The stars never change


























The stars never change

too lit to deal, walk across the common.

across the gardens, across the common, to the alley, the transportation building. sweetwater til estate opened up, had to shell out funds to get in, kicked it and hung out in the room with the naked sushi and body painting.

well, that's one way to spend an evening

you can say it's unsafe, raw fish and body heat.

this was INTERACT 4--Citizens of the World. you might have been there for the Sample sushi presented on nude bodies.

nela clued me in last night, turns out the same goth belly dancer electric violin woman (i can't make this stuff up) was playing tonight too, but ben and i kinda spazzed out and left early.

we were gonna follow a couple people into gypsy bar, and we were right there and about to bypass the whole line of ppl when i froze up and couldn't follow through.

it's all good though. there was at least some food, and the naked sushi and body paint were worth it. it was some experience, i'll give you that.

here are some photos from friday march 21 at zuzu with die young and baltimoroder. fun!

GALLERY › SOLID! @ ZUZU MARCH 21, 2008 with DJ Die Young and Baltimoroder. Featuring guest DJ Elyte! Photos by David Day

as you can see i got way too excited about quasi-being in a couple of these photos

today i meditated twice (good job dave!) and lifted weights (good job dave!). i want to write and clean and organize and accomplish

tmrw night is umass v florida, sox v as, and celtics v bulls. what a night! watching sports for 5 straight hours? no big deal

oh yeah, i got somethin for ya. it's a program that allows you to disable the sound coming from any application.

as in, it's a mac app that lets you disable the sound in safari. i've got it set up now so that my safari does not make any noise (from myspace pages or the enormous rooms awful awful awful awful web site)

there's a menubar option too so that i can turn it off whenever i want and get the sound back to watch youtube or something.

after talking about this yesterday, i'm thrilled to have implemented it.

here is the application, you also need to install application enhancer to use it

another week in paradise












another week in paradise

went to the revs game last night. they won, it was awesome not too cold. first i watched the boat race in winchester because comcast does get espn u

cool story dave! what's your other cool story?

i didn't make it to great scott. saw jeff at the fulk, got called out for standing the way that i stand (yeah someone imitated the way my brother and i apparently stand at a party). but it was funny

then stayed up waaaaay too late watching flight of the conchords. chris woke me up early because he didn't go out the night before. we got mexican brunch.

first time ever all #1 seeds are in the final four. davidson should have won, but we all know that

celtics won, bruins lost in ot. umass plays flo rida tuesday night, exciting

i'll update. sometimes everything just comes together.

from yesterday





















from yesterday

this is a photo that i believe a. krishnan took in india. look at all those remote controls! what a collection!

here's a facebook status message i thought was amuuuuuusing: "is revisiting the traditional 'drunk dialing' approach to social suicide, after a botched drunk texting incident with undesirable results."

the caspa show wednesday night was just...terrific, delightful, wondrous. damian silva and nuggs started it off, caspa came on and tore it up til 2am.

met some folks and loved it. pretty late night, especially when you watch no country for old men afterwards.

hmmmmm yesterday i downloaded music (suckaz!, as chris says) and sat here under siege for a bit (i'm not gonna explain here). saw rob b., then watched the movie screamers with miss s. and serguey. really funny freaky bad scifi movie

celtics at 8 tonight. gonna see jeff cause he's outta here sunday. not sure what the destination is. got a schweet interview next week.

happiness is a three syllable word











i'm good. talked to some folks today, i'll have a job soon enough. not really frustrated, just demonstrating proper response techniques

having a really good time. hung out with jeff and matt and pat today, brookline lunch was closed.

we went to the attic, pat got a black and gold sox hat and we looked at the paintings of the guy that's making a mural on pat's wall.

the footlocker in central sq leaves much to be desired.

went to cambridge coffee shop, watched celtics replay.

went to harvard museum of natural history, saw the glass flowers exhibit, totally lifelike.

how it's made, basketball, celtics domination. hanging out with paul and farah and brian, who are hilarious and wonderful. getting happy messages and having happy calls

frustration, or on not being employable

frustration, or on not being employable

in a friends facebook page we read "Personal Info
Activities:
trying to find a job...apparently i'm not employable"

i feel the same way. finally got frustrated today. i'll write a good cover letter though and take it from there

so on saturday i was driving around back bay, and just happened to pass by groups of scientology protestors wearing guy fawkes masks. i didn't know it was the second worldwide protest

i yelled in support out my window and they were pleased and shouted.

at a stop light i received a business card in return for my exuberance, passed by hand through my driver side window

it reads: "Have you found us? Or have we found you? Now what? YOUFOUNDTHECARD.com"

well, not for me






so looks like i'm getting into putting up creepy photos. don't worry, i leave out the really creepy ones

jeff actually wants me to come to spain. this is a loaded decision

yesterday i went to see howley and macklin, it had been a bit. luckily roy wasn't there, otherwise i would have gotten in a fight with him because he hasn't shaved or gotten a haircut. magma | lava, geothermal heat, macklin educating me in call of duty, circuit city idiots at jillians.

i've gotten over the pats loss. overcome! celtics at pacers, 7pm tonight. gettttttttttttttt ready. i just dropped the remote and neither of the batteries fell out. success!

i've been progressively deleting | adding music from | to my computer. whoa

i love | hate jeff when he calls | uppercuts me. whoa

i usually enjoy | dislike my brothers company when he entertains | pesters me. jeff, is this making you | me uncomfortable?

jeff liked it when i used the q&a format. think of all the different formats there are. for example, the epistolary format (like in dracula)!

dear blog,
i woke up today, i was reminded of the email i got from jen krimm and her article, "Want Fries With That Frustration?", in the Washington Post, about how she can't get a job.

at first, i did not have any expectations for this day. i was soon looking forward to listening to music and reading, which are a couple of lifes exquisite pleasures. it doesn't get much better than this, i'll tell you.

as of 11:36am, i still need to eat my morning banana. every morning this challenge presents itself to me, and every day i complete it. it takes a great deal of effort and concentration.

mm m mm

get all the 'B' Series DJ Mixes on the DJ C Music page

also, Shake It To The Ground (Switch & Santogold Remix) by DJ Blaqstarr is it. Creator by Santogold w/FreQ Nasty also is it.

last night me matt and clynton went to the central sq shaws late night, i had never even been there. it was a lot of fun, about as much fun as grocery shopping can be.

just left the cart in the middle and spent forever running back and forth to it. by the end it was overflowing and the bottom was stuffed too. it took two carts to get everything bagged back to the car, then a while on the sidewalk running up and down the stairs (the lights were out in the hallways) to get everything upstairs.

really interesting story huh? i tell such schweet stories.

mucho basketball on today. i want uconn to beat georgia tech, cause uconn isnt gonna lose another game this regular season!

but is this too much tv? is having two tvs right next to each other too much like a sports bar? is media overload really necessary?

yes, yes, yes. is watching tv on mute happiness? yes. does majoring in film and tv make you a better analyst of televisual content? depends on how much tv you watch!

do new media studies, cyber culture, film studies, television studies, and cultural theory make for great reading? yes.

do i want to enroll in mit's comparative media studies program? no.

dude patrick ewing jr (who looks just like patrick ewing) and doc rivers's son play on georgetown. does this make you wanna root for them? yes.

am i looking forward to reading john hodgmans the areas of my expertise? yes. is this annoying? yes.

after the celtics win i feel better

after the celtics win i feel better.

the celtics won, beat la clippers. couple things -- sam cassell, alien man, got ejected from the game for clocking rondo (dwight howard should have gotten thrown out of the last magic game for the same thing, but rondo stole his identity and ducked out of the way just in time)

also, there's a law/theory that the clippers announcer has that says -- in an nba game, the first team to score 100 points wins. turns out it's right nearly all of the time

bc basketball lost, sucky sucky sucky

4th and 13, let's go for it!

wtf? why did we have a series in the first half where laurence ran the ball three times in a row? why did we not kick a 50 yard field goal on 4th and 13?

i have yet to conquer the cambridge parking office, i'm about to go back, but if there's still 30 people in the line it's gonna be hard to persuad myself to queue up

i've watched a lil of gordon ramseys kitchen nightmares, highly recommended

we still have the celtics right! celtics celtics celtics!!!!!!!!!

beanpot tonight, prolly watch a lil

oh yeah i shaved with a single blade bic razor today, i think that was a first, i was waiting for an injury but i emerged unscathed

it's an incredible film festival, a night of several short films. i'm considering going for two nights this year. gotta order tickets.

quick ups | reemerge

reemerge. i wanted to let you know what i've been downloading recently. it's been way too easy to find these albums online just by googling the artist name and mediafire or megupload. i don't wanna get in trouble for this, but i've been steadily doing it since like middle school, so i feel invincible

look for 2007/2008 albums from these:

hell razah, dj babu, joe beats, mr hill, percee p, hot chip, z-trip, fink, lil' wayne, blockhead, mr cooper, beezy mc, dave gahan, jose gonzalez, dj khaled, prodigy, joell ortiz, project pat, luckyiam, the upstarts, blue scholars, lack of afro, thes one, clark

also, here's a good top 100 list of the best rap albums of 2007 Norfeest "Yes Yes Y'all" (Washington DC USA)

i'm reminded i need to get back to more goofy poetic ramblings. k, where is it.

first, i wanted to say that i walked by a doorstep and a guy with a guitar asked me "do you want to hear an original song?". also, last night there was a burning christmas tree on my block. traffic was briefly backed up.

but back to the fragmented text clippings. gimme a second

proper attribution | Rena wrote a poem





this is a sign that used to live near me, it is now the title of Rena's blog and possibly future titles of hers. she writes about the above photo, "jed took it...it inspires my poetry...there are no white whales in the conn. river"

"Here we have the sign which inspired the title of this blog. It sits on the bank of the Connecticut River in Norwich, Vermont."

rena writes, "...here is a poem i made with lines from your posts that i particularly like..."

she clarified on her blog that "This poem is composed of lines from Dave's blog about impressive things which struck me as particularly poetic. I selected and arranged them, but did not change the lines at all, except to capitalize some letters. So I didn't actually "write" this poem. But Dave didn't write it either. This brings up questions of authorship, as does my spam poems and the poem I wrote from Marc's e-mails. What do you think?"

i love this poem. by Rena Mosteirin

you don't choose, it chooses you | Cambridgeshire

that photo below makes me nostalgic. there's a place in the uk called Cambridgeshire

i walked to central sq and saw some sh** going down.

i walked back from central sq and a guy passed me on a bike and said "i shoot the police in the face"

jeff went to spain. he's in spain now. he says he's going swimming.

bated breath?

ok enough with the bad links already















ok, getting sick has prevented me from stringing thoughts together. but i think i'm better now

i took the green celtics big foam finger and gave it to the guy at jacks gas on mass ave in north cambridge to put it in the window. now whenever i drive up and down mass ave i can look and see my big foam finger, celtics green, sitting in the window. and everyone else will too.

last night was fun, i'm kinda crashing now after the party, doing well though, looking forward to tomorrow

this is matt hamilton playing the bass in the basement of the moontower

as far as the eye can see

free music that is!
