DEAR DIARY section is not so up-to-date. To read Marianne's more current
MYSPACE BLOG entries, visit... **05/06/05** Dear Diary, I have a confession to make. I'm cheating on you with a blog -- 2 different blogs actually. I hope we can still be friends. xo MP **04/03/05** Dear Diary, There's sooooo much to say, but I'm waaaaay too tired to write. **10/7/04** Dear Diary, Is anyone actually reading you? I've been having a hard time getting myself to write here because I've been very busy but also because I'm still not sure what I want to write. I read some other musicians' diaries/journals/blogs/ whatever-they-call-them and some of them ramble on an on about themselves. It seems kind of obnoxious and I usually think, WHO CARES?! Then again, if it was Bjork or Prince rambling on and on I'd want to know every thought that went through their heads and every detail of their lives. Well, at least the thoughts and details that related to their music, how their lives feed their creativity. I'm not sure if I'd care that they went shopping for new bed sheets last weekend. Would you? I'd really like to know. **9/6/04** Dear Wrong Marianne, Today when I woke up, I had these thoughts going through my head. I felt alive and ready to experience another interesting day on planet earth, which seemed cool at first. But soon I realized that I'd already had these thoughts like a million freakin' times. What the F*CK?! Why do I need to have them again and again DAMMIT?! --Un-Jaded in Jersey Dear
Un-Jaded, **7/18/04** Dear Wrong Marianne, Have you been working on any new song material or are you too busy partying? --Curious in Colorado Dear Curious in Colorado, Ha ha ha ha ha ha! That's me laughing at your funny joke! No, I'm trying to be The Right Marianne these days so there's not much partying for me. But never fear, there is still songwriting. In fact, I'm going to test out a couple of my new songs tomorrow at my solo Pete's Candy Store show. Wish you could be there! --TWM **6/23/04** Dear Diary, I'm sorry I've neglected you when I promised to pay you more attention. Well, first of all my website was down for a couple of days due to technical difficulties. But you can also blame it on my day job. In case you didn't know, dear diary, I've gone back to a full-time copywriting job in advertising. It's been about 6 months now. (Please don't tell anyone – I'm trying to maintain my rock & roll anti-establishment reputation!) They've really been making me work for my money lately, and by the end of the day I'm too drained to do anything but turn on my electric brain and watch episode after episode of Law & Order on TNT. But don't forget, if you have a question or need some advice, go to the contact section and e-mail Dear Wrong Marianne. I've already received a couple of questions and will post my replies soon. **06/14/04** Dear Diary, I have no idea where to begin. I've filled a hundred diaries and journals since I was 10 years old. But I've never had such a public forum for my neurotic thoughts, free-floating anxieties and existential frustrations with life and love. I mean, I know I've already covered a lot with my songs. And I like how neatly and humorously packaged they are, as opposed to the rambling and ranting of my journals. Perhaps this could be more of a relationship advice column? You know, Dear Wrong Marianne. Just ask me a question and then do exactly the opposite of what I advise and you should be OK! |
