but does anybody really care?
microblogging is so much more A.D.D.-friendly
anyway its 330am and i have a fever and want to die
tell me whyee? aint nothin but a headache
mary had a little lamb. it's fleece was white as snow. and everywhere that mary went...the lamb was sure to go.
lambs are cute. sometimes i wish i were a little lamb.
i was gonna post effloads of pics from my 3 months of travel through europe...but re-sizing & uploading & blah blah...i never got around to it
it was definitely one of the most amazing experiences of my life. sometimes awesome. sometimes horrifying. in the end, i got so much out of it...and i hope to do it again. only maybe for like 4 to 6 weeks instead of 3 months. that was...intense haha
part of me wishes i could just travel forever.
or at least until i fall in love
with something
or someone
(spare me all the obnoxious hokey shit about loving yourself, blah blah. "the secret" can shove it.)
you know what?
i'm deciding right now that im going to be bigger than Lady GaGa.
and if it doesnt happen...can we finally abandon all that shit about how if you think something, it will happen...how envisioning the future causes it to come about...that when anything bad happens its because of your attitude...etc?
optimism nazis make this world a shitty shitty fake place where everything real & honest is choked out like a fucking weed.
ya give me feev-ah.

actually i care if you blog or not, in fact, i've been wondering why you werent bloggin, and i should tell you, don't fell forced to blog just for the compromise to your fans... thats bull. Bloggins is for sharing somthing you wanna share, and you share A LOT whith your fans. i'm really grateful for some nice moments you've gave me. Blog when you fell you wanna share something special. If you wanted, you could blog about your tour posting just a few pics, don't getting much work with that, but writing about the expirience, the things that you lerned, how so you see life after that, idk. What i like aboput blogging is the space that it gives to take a certain look at daily things, the oportunity to get deapper in things.
Travel all you can, it's an advice; and you will fall in love of someone/something and you will be loved in return, be soure of that.
and about being bigger than Laddy GaGa, she is THAT "big" just becouse she makes the most comertial music in the industry, not becouse she is getting to comunicate somthing special about life. You are a grate artist becouse of your gentle tuch, so don't lose that and don't copare yourself with the others.
"optimism nazis make this world a shitty shitty fake place where everything real & honest is choked out like a fucking weed." i totally agree with that.
Hugs and Love
gabriel =)
haha thanks gabriel, that was sweet
and i like the way you spell stuff :)
xojay
hahahaha omg, i'm very embaraced. i have a terrible spelling, i know, but that's even in spanish, you know? hahahaha. well, but you get the idea, right? =P
hahaha
I Agree with Gabriel.
[[Some places; somewhere in this world someone will connect with you.]] And Somewhere in this world you will learn all you need to learn... and love all you will come to love; in due time... lol btw insomnia does let us think a bit more in depth thats why I write this in-response to your blogging... :p
I don't always follow your blogs or websites but I follow you were I can't go. Venues and foreign countries :D always hopeing you'll make it your way back to texas close to wear I can finally hear ya sing in person.
Back to my main point tho, it's nice to connect with someone on more than just one level, makes us feel like we're not the only one's that fiend for: deep thought, feeling's of love, malice, happiness, depression, insomnia, homo issues (myself being a young gay man (21)) and from your song's and thoughts and words that spill onto a page sometimes are quite spot on to some event's in mine.
I've been listeining to you for a few years now... back in your bathroom camera days lol and you have an amazing talent, and i'm not just saying that.
Btw do you like Gaga? Popularity does not count in my book. Your skills compare with her's and so does that shining soul inside you.
I'm sure you can see the talent inside her? Well I'll tell ya I see the same thing in you and I'm so happy to have witnessed it with you online.
Keep it up buddy...
Yeah Jay is back! (happy dance)
Is it the fever that makes you hallucinate that you want to be bigger than gaga?
Because you all ready ARE!
Your music get's into peoples minds, hearts and souls while gaga's music is the biggest commercial sh*t their is right now.
I want a Tardis and go back to the 90's when music was good and people weren't living life trough their iphones and facebook pages.
And the optimism nazis... well aren't they a funny bunch. Envisioning a better life for your self and you will get is!? uhm.. tell that sh*t to a kid in Africa that's starving.
Peeps who believe in all that envisioning stuff probably also believe in pink elephants that live in the sky on clouds made of candy.
Get well soon!
Horrifying experiences? You made me curious. Wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?
Also: optimism nazis must be tried and sentenced to life in prison.
optimistic people and nike slogans are the reason i put xanax in my cereal.
Sorry Jay, but your chances of being "bigger" than Lady Gaga are something like a trillion to one. It would take me too long to explain all the math required to come up with that calculation, so i won't even try. And btw, my "word verification" to post here is "rimme" - honestly, i'm not making that up! Is that what everyone gets, or was i just lucky???
Is this what microblogging has done to you?
its beautifully true what Gabriel said.
and Jay, have you heard of Ludovico Einaudi ? I was just thinking that there are different way to be big, and as Gaga is media-big, your deep-big , i mean you affect people much more than Alejandro does.
Et c'est pour ça que je t'admire.

Fuck love. Find a dick you can enjoy on occasion and fill the remaining void with food.
I was gonna write something nice and excitingly funny, about your return to blogging after such a trip. But hey you only blogged cuz you wanted instant sympathy cuz your ill. So hey, why bother, you can't be arsed to load up your photos so I cant be arsed to leave a comment - oh fuck I have already!
Oh bugger, I always get things wrong!
Good luck with the .... oh actually why the fuck should I be positive, supportive and appreciative, you'll just find anything way to diss it and call it fake.
So let's all carry on being down, making this hard horrible world the depressing place even worse than it already is.....
i love "listening" to whatever you have to say ... wether it's as short as a tweet or a FB update or a few words before your songs and after via youtube ... not to mention ustreams (it was sooo baaad today, i was at work and i couldn't listen)... sooo don't you dare give up blogging! since you're not planning to write a book on whatever this is the next best thing....i would miss it more than you'd ever know ...
'cause believe it or not ... you're a person who's really worth quoting:)...you should listen to you sometimes too ... i know i did...and now can't get some lyrics out of my head...like "positive thinking won't keep ships from sinking" :P ...
heh. my word verification is "dised"
anywho, Jay i would like to inrtoduve myself. I'm Micheal, your future ex husband. i've been following you for some time now, and have fallen hard for you. come to Burningman with me this year.
love, me.
por que!!??????
I care :(
Hey Jay!
Just thought I'd drop by to say hi. Keep blogging and do it when you have something on your heart.
I posted one of your youtube vids on my facebook and wow...there's some really awesome comments to you!
Feel free to check it out sometime!

don't do it if you don't feel that you need to post something. do it because you really wanna share something.
and for me.. you are BETTER than Lady Gaga.
kind regards

I read your story on facebook and identified with it in so many ways. My roof fell in too, and it was because my next door neighbor died while running the bath while I was home. This was right after I left my exhusband and had met someone new, and I had just quit my most hated job without something else lined up. This kind of stuff just happens in waves sometimes and I know it sucks and people are mean and selfish and ignorant but don't let them stop you from doing all the things you want to do, including travel.
ps my name is mary :]
My partner & I just watched a little indy movie you were in, and mostly noticed your great singing voice (the film was OK, but your voice was its highlight). Afterwards I searched online & found some videos which I enjoyed so much that I ordered your 2 CD's. Hope you play LA again soon so we can see you perform in person. And real love is out there for you too. We have been together for over 31 years, through great times & rocky times -no marriage license necessary, though we will do it when it is legal in all 50 states!
Mike
