You ought to be able to. I certainly can. Fat, worms in the air. You can ignore them in the ground but when the maggots take to the sky? Drat. I can-- I can hardly hold it together. Like, somehow the idea that there might be anyone who gives a fuck is impossible. Less impossible then the idea that anyone would give a fuck about me, interesting enough. Or I should say, duh. Mordicai is greater than...
My stomach is still upset from this weekend. My next month is basically booked back-to-back & solid with plays & parties. To which I've been told to shut up, because apparently having to go to nice social gatherings-- having that as your problem-- is a nice trouble to have. Well anyhow, my guts are in knots from living off beer & champagne & vodka only. The only vitamins or nutrients I had all week...
The weekend was what you might call mixed bag. On one hand, I had a lot of fun; on the other, I gave myself food poisoning. So like I said, it was a little left hand, right hand. Friday was another half-day, & I set it aside to go to the gym. I really require gym attendance; psychologically, I mean. Alienation & self loathing aren't quite in full effect, but the liminal edges of those oceans are...
A few swirls, notes. Amazon is listing my NaNoWriMo novel from 2007. That was a flattering email to get. Funny. In honor of it I went through & put Therefore A Cruel Messenger up on Lulu. It is expensive, being full colour & all, but you know. Words of Christ in red. Pictures. All that. I also put together a black & white version which is cheaper. This is the novel I wrote with fordmadoxfraud...
Quite the success last night, if you measure success by "wine drunk" or any other type of standard or practice! Slim group down to the core: Me, Jenny, fatbutts , fordmadoxfraud & Maggie. Trimed down to our fightin' weight! We open with a jab! Pow! While David & Maggie tuck into their grub, Lilly & I play some MarioKart . I'm leaving out some stuff at the begining, let me back...
Yesterday really began with sneaking out for pho with ranai . We stuffed our faces with noodles & tendons & tripe despite the fact that I was already kind of full. We talked about some stuff-- I think it was successful facetime! Then I went back to slam into work before sneaking out again , this time to go to pravda 's library opening . I ran into Jodi on the way ("MORDICAI!")...
It was maybe a month ago? & we were less than sober, & Merriweather Post Pavilion was on, in particular "In the Flowers," & there was the moment of climax in the middle, & Matt leaned over & closed his eyes & said it was the catharsis for the whole album. It is like, the first track? Great. Anyhow, after a morning of Ben Folds stuck in my head, supplanted by The Mountain Goats, it has settled in...
Gunnerkrigg Court . Well, today managed to be a pretty busy day at work-- one of those days where you are like "oh, I wasn't so busy they rest of the week because maybe everyone else was slacking off till the last minute?" Coupled with general tasks. Nice to be needed! You hear that Jenny, nice to be needed! Eh, she's busy fermenting ginger beer to make dark & stormies to feed to her high school...
Oh man! Okay, lets start with the good: Batman: the Brave & the Bold the COMIC is really awesome, too. fordmadoxfraud dropped off a huge stack of comics last night-- so far I've read Iron Fist (Still awesome, even without Fraction), Hercules (A good flip of sexism, without being insulting), Ghost Rider (I think comics without reader-baggage are really strong, lately) & Angel (I am...
A holiday with the usual suspects-- the first in fordmadoxfraud & Maggie's new apartment in Gowanus, which means that lovely & I can just pop over there. So we loaded our loot up into the laundry cart & off we went. kromelizard & wolvus were three hours late (or well, Peter at least-- Alicia was only one hour late) so we had a chance to watch some Rankin...
