Inside Story (AOL Sessions) - AOL Music →
If Ryan Adams had his way, he would have preferred to have his own name off of his recent album ‘Cardinology,’ and just have it say ‘The Cardinals,’ the moniker of his current group. He even suggested taking a Sharpie and crossing off ‘Ryan Adams’ on the spine of the album. “[Lost Highway, our record label] could not get it through their heads,”...

Ryan Adams Accepts His Bryan Adams Status -... →
Don’t call Ryan Adams Ryan Adams. That is if you’re referencing his work with the Cardinals. In an interview with Spinner after the band’s performance for AOL Sessions, Adams lamented that the group’s previous albums, including the most recent, ‘Cardinology,’ says “Ryan Adams and the Cardinals” because of the record label. “People really...

Oh my. It’s New Year’s again. Time is out somewhere huddled in a corner, cigarette ash at length, feeling sorry for itself. You know the feeling surely. What is it about New Year’s that leaves us rushing for our lover, before the Times Square Ball begins to chase down the silvery pole on TV and disco is forever burned into our hearts each year...

Each night,
I lift my chin-
feel the flicker of light
across my face
and I wear this energy,
this wonder of travelling
away, beyond
any measure of time
or reason-
through a catastrophic mist
of some unknown season
all pearl and lavender
and my fingers dance
across my mouth,
my eyes
feel the electricity,
the bluest nightspark
moving me through
this...

So this is day three, no smoking. What a trip.
i decided that now that most of the sweating, hacking up, coughing, feeling like the walls were coming in on me,
that i would write some tunes about it- something to keep me busy.
i am working on that now. I will post what I get done- vid style as soon as i am coughing less and can manage.
strangely, and this going to sound weird,...

Your life long roller coaster cycles of rising and falling blood nicotine levels are now ending. Your mind is in the process of resuming control of the more than 200 neurochemicals that nicotine had directly and indirectly taken hostage, including select adrenaline, dopamine and serotonin pathways.

God I Feel Out Of It…
I didn’t realize how addicted to tumblr I had become. The addiction to RA’s blog had sort of passed (don’t get me wrong, I’m glad he is back), but I wasn’t pacing the floor wondering what he was doing, or if he was reading my blog…not that he did or would. But I found over the last 6 days that I have totally missed my tumblfriends. And not only that I have...

and your headache if it is anything like mine, please try and use tea tree oil round your nose and temples.

hang in.

Q & A
cardinalcave:
Q- what a shirt. do you ever feel overwhelmed by all the literature in your house? surely you haven’t read it all. i only ask because i get overwhelmed by all the books and records and places i think i should read and hear and see, but can’t. because of time (nods to Franzi). i need to learn to take shit easy and realize how young i am and how much time i have, barring any...

Benefits of QUITTING Smoking (courtesy of boigirl)

Smoking cessation timeline - the health benefits over time
In 20 minutes, your blood pressure and pulse rate decrease, and the body temperature of your hands and feet increase.
Carbon monoxide in cigarette smoke reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. At 8 hours, the carbon monoxide level in your blood decreases to normal. With the decrease in carbon monoxide, your blood...

NO MEDS-
i stopped taking ANY meds (besides medication for my heart- which is essential now) this year. it is TOO hard to travel and have sleeping meds or anxiety meds run out and for my body or my mind to be tripped out when i have to work.
