good advice from bad people: don't go crazy unless you're sure you know the way back. cross my mind & hope to die. someone stuck a needle in my eye but i swear it wasn't mine, officer ( Read more... )

oh you've lost weight

You weigh nothing, how can you lose nothing?

When's yer book gonna be finished? Seriousness. Think yer one of the only [largely absent] poster's whose posts make sense to me. I need something to distract me from mulling over the Bhagavad Gita "for research".

Tomorrow [well today] new Pynch-man. I'm psyched.

the new pynchon book has just arrived at my apartment & i am looking forward to it EXTREMELY. because reading is EXTREME. i mean. plus the fact that someone sent me it before i overcame inertia long enough to buy the thing myself is a good sign. you start it yet?

anything like a book i produce in the near future would just be a mess, need to find some way to integrate semi-factual bits like my obsession with subway psychogeography [which borders on the unhealthy side i think living with a train outside my window for 3 years is fucking up my mind] with jolly hallucinatory flights of "fancy" & everything in between. & then--the difficult part--FINISH the damn thing. i still have the literary abortion i started three years ago on my hard drive but can't bring myself to look at it. some things should be left to die in illusory dignity [insert dramatic gesture here].

& that is a quality site...ultra-concentrated human trainwreck = hours of family fun

I'm waiting until just before the softcover is released. The price usually drops incredibly on Amazon. I got Against the Day, brand new for $5.

Well, I think you should write a book. If it's good I'll like it, and if it's awful everyone else will. It's win-win for you.

Weight loss = mind loss, I like it.
