Bloglet, the gentleman's mock turtle soup --
Moss made it sweeter than myrrh ash and dhoup


I bought a little black-and-white pendant for a dollar. It reads, "I do all my own nude scenes." The trouble is that it's an air freshener. The scent is nauseating. I think I'll have to ditch it. _

Damnit. Looks like Subdimension.com is defunct. Which means that askeladden@subdimension.com is defunct. I wasn't really using it for all that much, except that I sent my Antarctica resume out by it (as I was afraid that thomasaquinas@catholic.org was too incendiary or something). Now what am I gonna do? _

"Do you have the guts to put your hand into this box of creepy crawly rodents, reptiles, snakes & spiders? our reward will be a world of slithering fruitiness. The razor-fanged rat, poison-spitting cobra, and the man-eating iguana await the gruesome challenge: Will you eat them, or will they eat you?"

Sunday morning at 8. and Mir-Mir is back from a 4 hour walk - black night and lots of white snow. She had her 4th burger in 24 hours, bought me a present - a cool v. chopper. She brought home a 3 1/2 foot baloon, creepy crawlers, mucked up hair pomad for hip guys and girls, goosberies hydroponically grown clover sprouts, an orange gold cleanex box that is 3d and you can see yourself in it, cherry berry wild string dental floss, Wild Wax for braces, this book and pens - silver and gold - and she brought her crazy self back carrying the longest, coolest (in all sense of the word) see through Ice Spear.

I'm drawing and quartering myself.

One side wants to suck in masses of pleasant and edifying stuff -- music, books, movies, conversations -- to hoard it against catastrophe or boredom. The other side pushes it away and only wants to sit, completely inert and small and self-contained.

One side keeps lifting its head up to rejoice in the beauty, comfort, love, and ease it's floating in the middle of. The other side is all impatience at the insufferable stagnation.

One side wants to act, to strive, to be heroic, to suffer and prevail against God knows what. The other side doesn't want to have any notion of either pain or lack -- when it's forced to think of the state of the world and the unlucky people in it, it gets resentful and feels compromised, like its harmless happiness has been yanked away for no reason.

One side wants to be potent and brilliant and infinitely creative, a genius from every angle, industrious above all: an unsurpassed scholar, a timeless poet, a spontaneous wit. The other side doesn't feel like exerting itself, and is constantly annoyed by the pretentions of other people -- other ordinary people, who don't have the sense to see that they, like it, are just ordinary, simply ordinary, and their best virtue -- besides a sort of given, the inalienable nobility of man, or something in that vein, which sometimes seems so true and solid it barely stands mentioning and sometimes seems like such a conceited excuse for mediocrity -- is in failing to put on airs. _

You know what I hate? I hate when music I like is labeled by the CDDB as "New Age". 'Cause New Age Music is, by definition, horrid pappy treacle, right? And the only people who avowedly listen to New Age Music are all credulous flaky crystal-lickers, right? So when I that genre comes up on a disc that I'd willingly listen to without wanting to drown myself in a ditch, I feel like my cred is being seriously damaged, see. Bah. Finches. _

"So let the sun shine in, brighten all the skin... shins... SIN!"

And then there's my dad -- the man is 75 years old, and until last night he'd never heard of ramen! How can you not have heard of ramen? It's a frigging staple food. "You know I'm not into Japanese cuisine..." "Dad, it's not Japanese cuisine, it's 14 cents a packet!" "14 cents? Well, I guess that's pretty cheap, isn't it?"

They're mutants, I swear.
