This evening there was a rainbow over London kissing blocks of flats

National Poetry Month Day 19

La la la don't wanna anything. God. *faceplants* I got the date for the last day of work today: 4th of May. MAY THE FOURTH. Yes I know. Now I just need to not pull any more boredom sickies and just laze about being paid to read Tumblr (well, I have actual work to do now) and then deal with being impecunious

There is the continual burble of voices, not stabbing out of a quiet night like by the park but a steady flow of laughter
it's nice, isn't it? i also live between cars and trains--there's always train whistles that i can fall asleep to at night and neighbors laughing with their children on all sides (even my next-door neighbor, who is much happier having gotten rid of her husband, and now there's less SHOUTING AND POLICE, honestly. *exasperated*). houses, with living people in them, people with gardens and (for me) people who do not solve their problems by shooting holes into their doors and blowing up meth labs. not being left alone completely, in a hole in a dark house forever.

Aghahahah I was going to say something but my brain likes to remind me of things i want forgotten sometimes. *KILLS MEMORIES DEAD*

ahem i will take responsibility for this one, that was a rather careless phrase when i was only thinking of how nasty and...amityville...my parents' house is.

I enjoy the gary-stus banter but I don't know who is which, they wander about having different names and epithets and I need a chart or a table or something. Also the Newnham sentence no sense. I mean, there's a word missing in it.

actually it was mentioned in the first post about them: edward batterbee and desmond milford. desmond is an american. first/last name use goes by intimacy.

I could live without people ten years younger than me describing the life I have as the kind of failure they want to avoid.

Oh god someone at college nearly got my bag dropped on them for that. I'd have told them to lick mould off a cot death if they weren't practically one themselves. Young people, ugh ;P

On more interesting topics (jewellery!)- do you have stuff to make either shawl pins or sweater clips?

Neiiiiither but I imagine both can be obtained now that I am no longer in a continual state of MOVING MOVING MOVING

"Barmaid at the Lamb. Missing a front tooth, arms like a stevedore, verging on a club foot. I have preliminary sketches and two canvases prepared. Oh, and the most darling scars on her hands from boiling fat." Desmond was in the habit of listing off what others would view as defects or deformities in his various lovers in the same enraptured tones

DESMOND YOU ARE THE COOLEST.
