My Silver Birthday Anniversary Wishlist

June 8th, 2005 — 4:30am

So I have no doubt that right now you’re all “fuck! It’s Jo’s birthday in less than ten days (on June 17th) and I must buy her presents! I wonder what she would like?”

I, of course, would like to take the stress out of your lives, so here’s what I’d like. You may notice some similarities to my Xmas wishlist:
- a thick long scarf either in a chunky texture or short stripes.
- Bed linen. Bright colours and queen-sized please.
- New shoes – chuck taylor lowtops (in a converse size 9) or Super Birkis in a 42 – metallic or bright green or purple please.
- Accessories.
- Magazine subscriptions to anything and everything.
- Online subscriptions to Nerve and Salon.
- The Breakfast Club on DVD. Make it exist. Also Garden State, season two of Twin Peaks (which isn’t out yet, as far as I know), Scrubs, My Neighbor Totoro and anythign else.
- dark coloured lipgloss
- A cellphone that’s pxt and polyphonic capable – I’d prefer a nokia.
- Things from my smokecds wishlist
- anything you’ve handmade for me – zines, mix cds, artwork, whatever.
- eatible and drinkables
- bathroom products.
- ps2, eye toy, sing star and dancing mat. Also the Buffy game and Tekken but I promise not to play them so much cos of the wrist thing.

So, it’s my birthday in less than two weeks, and many of you are invited to my Friday the 13th Drinks, so you’re probably wondering what to get me. Here’s a helpful list (actually, chances are if you’re coming to my drinks, I’ve already been to your birthday parties and haven’t given you anything, so you shouldn’t either)

  • Knee socks
  • lip gloss
  • brightly coloured eyeshadow
  • jewellary
  • scarves
  • kitchen knives
  • cash
  • books
  • beauty products

Thank you. Having said that, the coolest present I received last year was Peter filling my entire bedroom with balloons in the coolest suprise I’ve ever had (no disrespect to the other presents people got me cos they were all brilliant too).

Other than that, my mummy’s coming up to visit me tomorrow. Yay. And what else? I might go get some lunch now. Designer Brad gave me a chocolate bar for proofreading his 8000 word dissertation. I am a good girl.

Did I show you my pluto photos? I think I probably did. Oh well, you can see them again. And I guess that’s all I really have to say right now.

Thursday June 6th

Bed gets harder and harder to get out of in the mornings as it gets colder and colder. Bopa and I had breakfast in Grafton together, excellently cheap donuts and Atomic coffee before I went to work, a little bit late, but the big boy Bridget wasn’t there anyways, so it didn’t matter. Hmm, I just typed ‘boy’ but I meant boss. I’m a dick. Also, do you know who else is a dick? HORRIBLE MOOCHER GIRL. Grrr. I’m getting veeeeeeeeeery annoyed with our houseguest. Last night I missed a top secret but very important meeting because she had gone out and parked me in, and then I thought she’d come back any minute now, but of course she didn’t. I really need to say something to Bopha about it, but the thing is Clay wants her gone just as much as me, and I really don’t see why I should always have to be the fucking bad guy. Clay should get a fucking spine. Hmm, I was actually in a really good mood until just now too. But maaaaaargh – I mean, it’s fair enough to be pissed off after someone’s been in your house for four weeks without any indication of when they’re going to leave, right? I mean, this is a pretty small apartment.

But anyways, brighter happier notes. Trying to get gossip out of Justin about yourself is like trying to squeeze juice from a nonjuiceable thing, which is funny given how much he’ll tell you about everyone else not pertaining to you. I have things on my mind, semi guilty conscience and stuff, but not really – I feel bad for not being as sweet to someone as he was to me, but according to Justin, it’s all cool, so that’s cool, and yeah, end of story.

My wrists have been really really really clicky lately. I’m sure I heard Natural Ange recommend something for that – Silica maybe? or Zinc? I dunno, but that’s what I should be taking. Also, less wanking would probably help too. And plenty of other things. I should try and find the other poi that Jacinta made me, but I fear it has gone the way of my sneakers and vanished into thin air somewhere in limbo between Auckland and Wellington. Hmm, i keep going to hit tilda funny key cos I use a mac at work, but that doesn’t work here. Anyways. Okay, it’s becoming pretty obvious that i don’t have much to say, so I should talk about my birthday instead.

Hi, I’m turning 22 on the 17th of June. You can find my birthday wishlist here. You should send me stuff – if you email me I will give you my address; who knows, it could be the start of a beautiful friendship (I can give you references on that one). I’m going out for dinner to somewhere cheap and BYO for dinner on my actual birthday – and the best bit is that since Clay will be away then, I don’t have to invite Kara – muhahahah, so it’s just going to be my closest nearest and dearest, cos massive dinner parties are a little scary, and then having a (not hyped) party on the 29th, after exams, to which you’re all invited, assuming that either A) I know you, or B) you know my address and aren’t intimidated by my friends. Cool. My friends aren’t really that scary, even if they are a little protective. Maree came around this evening, and it was lovely to see her, even though she didn’t share her meat (I’ve eaten too much bread today and I’m craving proteins. This could also be related to me being midcycle, I think (and a quick check of the old pillarooni packet confirms it (I hope my previously good blood pressure hasn’t gone up drastically over hte past couple’o weeks))).

You know, if that last sentence had been a maths equation, it would have been fucking hard. Oh and one other thing – I fixed the links on all the pages to my photo directory – it should have always been /cam not /photos.

    Give me stuff

    December 11th, 1998 — 1:43am

    Friday the 11th of December

    I worked at the Bakehouse AGAIN today, and NO ONE, female or otherwise, came on to me. Maybe I’m loosing my charm. But OOOOOH Oooooooh, something exciting DID happen to me – I got quoted in Annette’s journal, and now I feel like a star. Thanks Annette! Not that I know her, other than reading her journal every day. I have like five people’s journals bookmarked. I feel like a voyer sometimes, but it’s so fun, especially when I start interacting with those people a little.

    Ummm. That’s really about all. Thanks for reading this anyways! I’m so sure there was other shit I was going to mention, but now I can’t remember. I sent a letter to sothere.com today. I bet it won’t get accepted but oh well.

    AAAAAAAAAAAH can’t take the pressure but I have nothing else to say. Umm Helena’s journal entry today is SO nasty, and so I figure if you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all, and I’m going to cut this short now.

    What to give Joanna for Xmas

    cds – or just cd vouchers to make sure you get it right

    *The Gathering CD, either Placebo, Portishead Live (enhanced version), “My Body the Hand Grenade” (Hole bsides) etc

    makeup – I especially want some rogue pulp loreal lipsticks in any colour

    more vouchers from any store

    umm stuff. Cool stuff.

    Jewellery

    stuff from infomercials, especially knives and pots\

    spice girls merchandise – but only if it features Geri

    Radiohead’s Video compliation thing – Seven Television Commercials -
