RIP Arthur Miller

The only real problem with indulgence in rare pleasures is the interminable anhedonic nausea that follows. Living in the desert, a bedouin can grow accustomed to long periods of dehydration, so much so that he loses the capacity to thirst. The man is never so thirsty as in the few moments after having drunk a large quantity of water after many waterless days. After a time, this too may pass. Or it may not.
E.L. Borgine, Antisymposia

Tonight is dub reggae cigarettes and finishing the first part of Prayer's for Rain finally. Who wants to be a reader when I have a draft? I'm not letting anyone see it again until after the second section is written, so get in line now.
\\\\\
I continue to be amused by my new status as an answer to a lj quiz.
\\\\\
I may decide to fuck writing tonight and go blow money on comics and records. Zion's Gate has a huge pile of Lee "Scratch" Perry records and I heard there was a place on 6th in West Seattle that has a bunch of Sun City Girls stuff for sale. And they're making a movie out of sin city, so i'm going to go to Wonderworld, buy "The Yellow Bastard" and see if I can't sell it on Ebay for 300 dollars.
\\\\\
I think I may have just sold tags and collars to Larry Flynt. I have his address.
Other exciting things that happened today, spoke to someone from a town called Feasterville Trevose in Pennsylvania. Is that not a fantastic town name?

note to self: whenever lucifer enters a scene in paradise lost, there is a great deal of sibilance in the line. could be a useful ref re: Prayers for Rain.
\\\\\
in other news, life is still pretty good.
