Ian Kevin Curtis. 1956-1980.

Will you stay?

For these days?

I need to post more than I do. More often than when a friend dies, though it's important when that happens.

Here goes:

My friend died. I'm very sad. I'm devastated.


Phew.

I will try to be more expressive in future posts.

Another friend dies.




Fuck.

Ever get the feeling you're being cheated?

Three things I'm pretty sure about:

1) Stevie Wonder managed to make three records from 1972 to 1974 without once hitting a wrong note,

2) New Order is the perfect musical progression from Joy Division, and, as it would logically follow,

3) Ian Curtis was right.


Ian'd be in his fifties now. Somehow I doubt he'd be featured on VH1 talking to some fat cunt like Eddie Trunk about "Substance 1977-1980."

"It's a living/ This is the life."

Is it, though?

I think, oddly, that this is the time to...

Well, maybe, not yet.

If any of you out there have an informed opinion as to how to deal properly with YOUR (caps mine) best friend declaring his/her transsexuality, I'll politely ask for it now.

Because I, frankly, have no idea what to do.
