Any time it snows, parts of my brain shunt into being six years old. This can be rather embarrassing, like when you're about to turn on someone and be upset for them unclipping your bra when you told them not to but your eyes have caught sight of magical fluffy little frozen clumps of white falling from the sky, so instead your lips blossom into a smile and the smallest little happy voice spills forth with, "Ooooooh..." and you forget to dish out what's coming to them until it's way too late and rather pointless anyway.

Blixa Bargeld, lead singer of the German industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten, does commercials for Hornbach, a home improvement superstore. Here they are: Mosquito killer, Paving stones, a Power Drill, and Paint.

Brian collected me from work Saturday like an exhausted figurine. After dinner, I crumpled in the car on the way to a birthday party, a tired pile of black fishnets, velvet, and feathers, the air escaping my deflation taking the shape of an hour's worth of clarifying how sick I am of me and mine meaning more to me than I do to them. He's very good for me to talk with, he's too soothing to get bitter at. Always he drowns me in affection. After the first unsteady hour, where my independence wants to lash out and kill him, I begin to relax. The next little while, all my carefully locked away pains want to leak out, but that too goes away. They grow tired of fighting with me and go back to hide again where I've put them to stay. It's a trick I've learned to have. Hurray for trained repression. One day I should count how many people there are who are allowed to embrace me, allowed to find out what I'm really saying inside my head. I suspect the figure could be counted on one hand.

TUESDAY, (not tonight, my mistake, verysorry hope this catches you in time, etc), at 9:30, there's will be a group of us at Tinseltown go seeing what they've done to Aeon Flux. You should take part, yes yes. Strengthen our community through entanglement of social possibility

Thank you to the lovely people who came over last night after Graham and I cleaned up. Andrew, Nick, Ian and Ethan - your dishes are a sweet testament to your arrival. I'm sorry I fell asleep during disc three of Aeon Flux. It's been so long seeing some of them that I'm not even sure which episodes I missed. I don't even know what time I fell asleep, the only time I looked at the clock was at six:thirty when I noticed it was light out and the ferret needed into the hall.

This is for Ray:

"Doomed love! Pharmacology! Futility! Insane machines!
Unholy creatures! Dismemberment! Infection! Body modification!"
The Not-So-Secret History of 'Aeon Flux'




Today is my last day at work.
