I get a little sad at night. My Montreal's so far away -- less than a week behind me but it's been forever and ever, I'm going to lose my head, and my eyesight.
Got an e-mail from my German Lit professor, whom I idolize; essays are ready to pick up, he says, and what I wouldn't give to climb the escalator in Sherbrooke 688 again to get it. I wonder how he would feel if he knew he was the reason I put a picture of Heine on my wall?
I constantly pine over something, someone. I don't think I can let myself be happy. My job, though -- it's about chemicals and lying and capitalism, what's happy there?
But the trees are blooming, I'm allergic, I'm in love, maybe. I still bite my fingernails and I'm reading D.H. Lawrence again.
I bought a typewriter to encourage myself but my only ambition is on a shaky foundation and I can't even legally get drunk here, this city populated with people crippled by monolingualism and Tim Horton's on every corner.
internet blogging, where would my lonely inner monologue be without you?
