STAR X CROTCH
yo. im robby wollstonecraft.
21 years old from a small city in tx. sadly, lived here most of my life with the exception of living in Austin and Arlington for a while. im into most types of music, but i still prefer heavy music over any other kind. i was raised on classical music and trained on classical guitar for about 8 years. its been nearly 8 years since i took any kind of instruction but yeah, im still tearin up the fretboard.
i'm not into t.v. or movies. they cause brain rot or something. not to say that i havent watched many tv shows and many movies. but i still dont like them. i would have to say Metalocalypse is one of the best newish cartoon shows i've seen in a long time. there is still a place in my heart for ROCKO's MODERN LIFE.
currently, i WORK with about 28 computers. I try to keep them running but sometimes its a fiasco. I've also been interning at a Recording studio since the end of May. check it out if you'd like www.blackbottlerecording.com and its very affordable. i'll be recording with my band CUNCE there later this summer.
i play (or have played) guitar and/or bass in a lot of bands.
i guess im a slut.
i use to play bass for Sattori (experimental post hardcore) and TheHappening (party music). I use to play guitar for Vade (alternative/hard rock), East Bay Panic (hardcore punk), SHiFT (heavy like balls), Sattori (i switched to guitar), and many others.
Currently I'm in ONE single band, Cunce (brutalish trashy chaoscore).
and my solo shindig = prisoner3
SO MUCH MUSIC.
I'm kind of addicted to music.
If you must know anything important, message me or something. it'll give me something to do at work.
my biogrpahy: yesterday was pay day among other things.
i spent some of it on my pets' food (crickets and mealworms for the toads and waxworms for the geckos).
i had a fiasco trying to clean out the toads tank. as soon as you take off the top they start tryin to escape. silly toads. what will they do if they actually get out? they would just sit there and die. but they don't know that so i must protect them. so yea i take off the lid and immediately Cosby, the smallest of the three, starts climbing trees to get out. i was scared to leave him alone because im not the best at catching frogs/toads. i leave that job to whitney. if i had to i guess i could but yeah.
Iggy is the brown medium sized one. I think Igby would be better.
and we are still thinking of a name for the big bright green one. i wanna name him Pyralis since he's a fire-bellied toad but whitney wants something else. maybe something we can actually say and remember.
and as for my geckos, well they are a trip. our female laid eggs a few weeks ago but i think we fucked it up because we moved them. sorry Clem. maybe we'll get another chance in 26 weeks. anyway.
im at work. i've been here 2 hours already. had to get dropped of early and i asked my mom if she could ask her boyfriend to pick me up and take me since my work is on the way to his work. he agreed but i had to leave an hour earlier than i normally do. that was a pain. and he drives really strange. i wasnt fully awake and i forgot my keys so we had to go back by my place.
this is a "blog post" out of boredom.
when did online journals become blogs?
i understand it came from the word 'weblog' and they took 'we' away.
i still hate that word. it sounds wrong. go blog yourself.
oh so pay day was yesterday, once again.
whit and i went to eat indian food at rosoi's. delicious and only 12 for both of us to get filled to the brim with amazing and authentic indian cuisine.
i hate when people say the word indian and they mean native american.
and i hate the word native american, it just proves we destroyed them and everything the accomplished over the past however many thousands of years. well i didnt do it, and i suppose most of my people weren't the culprits like that. Most of my not so ancient relatives were sold out by their kings to spaniards. the spanish started the slave trade pretty much. then, because most europeans are ridiculous, britain had to take charge. those arent the only three culprits.
thats why i hate the term african american. i never lived in africa. i dont even know if my family is from africa. im sure someone far back in the timeline is but seriously.. i was born in america as an american to two americans both born and raised in texas which was part of america at the time of their births and mine. so yeah. what is this african american shit?
no no i know why now. its because americans are white. it all makes sense. i mean, they were here long before those natives i spoke of earlier.
oh no.
sarcasm has set in. i dont like being sarcastic but its really so easy... but now so cliche. i dont want to sound pretentious (even if i am a little bit). at least im not like those "too cool for school" scenesters around here. they dont even move around at shows. they just stand against the wall as if its like a school dance in middle school. its like wtf, you pay $10-100 to go see this band you say you looooove so much, then you get there and you just sit there like you're watching t.v. or something. speaking of which i need to find a show to go to soon. i wish into the moat would play here. or poacher.
so next i'm left with this. yesterday was pay day
but tuesday i was on my way to work when i realized i had no brakes.
so today i must pay for my brake job. which is going to "brake" my finances. i had a lot planned for this pay check but now... now its withering away $375 at a time. sort of.
at least it'll be fixed and i wont feel embarrassed or scared driving my car anymore. at least i didnt kill anyone or myself.
speaking of, i should go read my death space. it's entertaining to say the most.
i hate my job. 2 more weeks. what will i do then?
remember my last blog when i said my life doesnt revolve around writing blogs?
well it doesnt ( usually ), but it does ( at the moment ).
So my band ( Cunce ) has a split E.P. coming out with my solo project ( Prisoner3 ). that sounds like a monopoly to me, but really they are completely different. and Cunce and Prisoner3 are doing a song together for the EP and it should be pretty interesting. it was a reject song from my last band ( Sattori ). back when trent was in the band. he liked that song. but conor didnt like it cuz it sounded like the cock rock band that practiced next to us. they were super loud and sounded like the next band trying to get signed. but i dont think they had a singer. i bet if conor sang with them they would be famous. that guy's going to be famous one day. it's too bad the shit that went down with Sattori. because august 1st will be a year since Sleepwash came out. then... like everyone quit or got kicked out and replaced. evil drummer. steve wanted conor out of the band because he was "flakey" well the guy just worked late and had a girlfriend, so wtf. and because he would show up to gigs like literally right before we were going on stage. and its crazy because he's not even a druggy. he's just easily distracted and i understand that because i am too.
so we kicked out conor and played 2 more really drunk shows with him. we recorded with the new members then chris quit in november. and we played our last show with him and conor in november. then i moved from bass to guitar. and we got nick on bass. which made everything sound wayy better. but the vocal situation irked me sooo bad. we got a chick singer. we agreed to try her out but i never said anything about her joining officially. it sounded alright in practice where her vocals were rather buried, but on the recordings.. ack. and we also had steve's little brother on vocals with the dual vocal thing but he had no vocal experience whatsoever.
it was just an overall bad idea. it brought down the fire that was sattori. and i was most likely the icing on the burning embers when i quit in feb. well, i said i was taking a break from the band which was my intention but i'm not sure i can will myself to return to that. there's so much drama surrounding us though. and so many people had their grubby hands in our bands business and with people wanting in the band and out of the band it just ... i dunno. and i dont think nick would rejoin.
plus im the kinda guy that doesnt go back. in jobs, relationships, and bands. if you screw me over or betray me, im likely never to forget it. even if i dont react promptly, it festers inside of me until i have no resolution other than to cut myself off from the offending person(s). its a fault of mine but i deal with it. kinda like the way i deal with work. by writing blogs.
i only have about 3 hours left to go. and my job is rather simple. but i'd rather be sleeping.
as it is i dont have a clue of how im going to get home. maybe someone will help me.
i'll pay, i promise.
okay this blog is simply going no where
if ANYONE reads this that would be hilarious.
and you should message me if you end up reading this entire thing.
i do have a life
it just doesnt revolve around writing blogs
