my life as a artist

anti-anti-life

A concerned Jono comments;

'Don't be a wimp, go to the dentist before your dental abscess infects your heart and damages your valves. I don't want to scare you but this is serious shit and it won't go away with Bach rescue remedies.'

Thanks for caring Jono, and also for reminding me about Bach flower remedies. Since your comment I've been adding a few drops to my thrice-daily warm salt-water mouth-wash, along with a thrilling dash of iodine, and I do believe it's helping the healing process.

I've always found with any enemy that it's good to try and establish some sort of relationship, so as I swill, besides offering thankful prayers of love and gratitude for the existence of love and gratitude, I also extend seasonal good-will towards the abscess. I thank it for teaching me about oral hygiene and giving me the chance to try so many delicious mouth-washes, and then after a bit of small talk, we reminisce about the good times.

In the early days, when my sad, pus-filled friend was a young, vibrant, almost coquettish tissue cell, she was basically just potential, and in my opinion all the cuter for it. We lived in happy symbiosis then, carefree and gay, me a struggling artist and her a microscopic hint of infection, both of us united in our search for expression. When the moment's right I remind her of that blessed state, and encourage her to shrink.

I'm aware that some folk may think that my approach to this abscess- healing is just so much ill-conceived, over-idealistic, airy-fairy, flibberty-gibberty, shilly-shallying, namby-pamby, lentil-pie-in-the-sky poppycock, and that I'd be better off attack, attack, attacking it with antibiotics. However, once, in a luminous arctic dream, on the frozen tundra, under a midnight sun, in my underpants and yet strangely warm, I found myself playing Frisbee with a talking elk called Susan, who had a degree in medicine and a firm belief in the primacy of spirit.

She told me that the human body is designed to self-heal, and that viruses and bacteria are actually our friends. They eat up garbage inside, like crows and maggots clean up corpses outside, and so while present at the incident, your honour, they're not the actual cause of it, and the idea of sending in antibiotic storm-troopers to indiscriminately slaughter them is a cruel, irrational and destructive dollop of veal-pie-in the-sky plop.

She said these things with such conviction, that even though they were delivered in a Beckhamesque, squeaky Leytonstone accent, I believed her. The fact that I now value the opinion of a talking elk called Susan, that I met once in a dream, over that of my doctor, says so much about so many things. If the infection should prove resistant to my love-bombing, and grows, I'll cut it out and sell it to Heston Blumenthal, who I've heard does a mean abscess and cat vomit pie.

Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?

Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed soon. Thanks

Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any recommendations for novice blog writers? I'd genuinely appreciate it.

Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!

With havin so much content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of unique content I've either created myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any ways to help reduce content from being stolen? I'd certainly appreciate it.

Greetings from Colorado! I'm bored at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I really like the info you provide here and can't wait to take a look when I get home. I'm shocked at how quick your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I'm not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, excellent site!

Wow that was unusual. I just wrote an extremely long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn't appear. Grrrr... well I'm not writing all that over again. Regardless, just wanted to say fantastic blog!

I am curious to find out what blog system you happen to be working with? I'm having some small security problems with my latest site and I'd like to find something more risk-free. Do you have any recommendations?

Posted by justice coupons , on Wednesday 10th August 2011, 6:19 AM

Does your website have a contact page? I'm having trouble locating it but, I'd like to shoot you an email. I've got some recommendations for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great blog and I look forward to seeing it grow over time.

Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog. Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I'm thinking about making my own but I'm not sure where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions? Thank you

Hmm is anyone else having problems with the images on this blog loading? I'm trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it's the blog. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Hello this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!

I am really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A few of my blog audience have complained about my website not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any suggestions to help fix this problem?

We absolutely love your blog and find nearly all of your post's to be exactly what I'm looking for. Do you offer guest writers to write content for you? I wouldn't mind producing a post or elaborating on a lot of the subjects you write in relation to here. Again, awesome weblog!

I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your sites really nice, keep it up! I'll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back in the future. All the best
