"one thing thats weird that makes me really happy is blacking out and doing things that i don't remember and having people tell me what i did, what i said. it's like, i'm not me, and i'm funny! well, sometimes i'm surly too. but it's still funny. i ask them, what did i say? what did i say next? what did i do then? every...

yay for friends being recently unemployed and excited and for ethiopians and their food and honey wine and for guarding the ark of the covenant for so so long!
i miss the sounds of crickets and tree frogs and time warped sounds of squealing train brakes bounced off mountain sides and the bells ringing from the tower of the church which has america's largest freestanding elliptical dome constructed by an italian at the turn of the century who had come up with a brilliant masonry technique that allowed him to defy gravity on a...

i like it when i have epic dreams that seem to last forever but then you wake up and it's only been an hour or maybe we realize it's only been a minute... it's like we're in narnia...they had four last night...the best was when debra jean tickled us and then dropped a worm in ourselves' mouth....tricky girl...oh and at one point he had the...

debrajean:
desert has to say: strange.
it's odd, i was driving to get falafel (mmm....falafel) and i saw this girl (who is the spitting image of her twin sister who i was friends with and lived on the other side of the country) walking with this boy and i was like oh, there's so and so....so half hour later i'm driving back down the same route and i see them again...

i love that! no one's figured out what that means, yet, i guess. i suppose it's better this way. synchronicity, deja vus, things in the realms of magic, we're forced to just examine, experience, absorb . . . . .

cheers! had wicked cantonese food, and i think we're going to watch Nausiica of the Winds, one of miyazaki's (p. mononoke director) early films. he's one of my fave directors for sure.
i am reading sartre right now, and i had an amusing thought. sartre's this uptight, solitary, unsocial little french dude, already lived through a war, now killing time in provincial france. i.e. hardly in a state of openness and peace with the world. he experiences the sudden illumination that life is no more than fluctuating probability, that change is the only constant. being the tightly-wound type, he gets "the fear," enemy of transcendental experiences. like giving lsd to republicans. therefore it becomes this Nausea, this angst, instead of the psychically liberating experience it became in the next generations.
another great sartre theory: this is probably utter bullshit, but it's funny in a stupid way. one of the symptoms of potassium deficiency is "existential dread." i think sartre wasn't eating enough bananas. plus salt, ubiquitous in cheap french food, depletes the body's potassium. you are what you eat?

my life is not this steeply sloping hour,
in which you see me hurrying.
much stands behind me; i stand before it like a tree;
i am only one of my many mouths,
and at that, the one that will be still the soonest.
i am the rest between two notes,
which are somehow always in discord
because death's note wants to climb over-

in the current events thread about freedom, you mentioned being to places where there was little or no law enforcement, and no taxes. what places are you talking about? sounds like a wonderland.

damn straight---sign me up, doc
i return your random introduction. greetings and salutations! it is actually delightful to meet people and know all these things about them from the start. there's a certain je ne sais quoi to someone who loves both zombie flicks and rilke that gives me a good idea of how friggin' cool you must be. therefore, worth taking time to get to know.
plus i'm an armchair anarchist, so would love to hear what you were about. maybe i'll go to the forum myself.
don't burn your thumb, man!

i am the happy owner of what may possibly be the worlds greatest puzzle... hieronymus bosch's the garden of earthly delights. i was so happy to be in madrid and go to the prado museum and see the whole big triptych depiction of heaven, earth and hell, all equally surreally fanstastic and overwhelming in strange details (and created in the 1400's!). but to have it...

real quick about cat power: I wish I had known her stuff better, I would have better appreciated her. I learned after the show that apparently she sometimes gets stage fright, and has, in the past, cut out of a show mid-set. Though no such antics occurred, I sensed a sort of weirdness undescribable except in drawn-out essay form. /:
Weirdness aside, actually hearing her voice was quite nice. There's something about the live-ness of a show that simply does not compare to recorded music.

i could hear you singing in my mind again today, like the last time, coming out of the desert toward hono'apu...the silohoutte of your voice...an outline of a whisper...i couldn't quite place the song, maybe it was just you making your little songs up...it was pretty and i miss you.
eris:
perhaps the song was an ode to the great sugar cane godess... or maybe even the spirit of the icecream bean.

but seriously. how often does this happen? and for how long? does it happen under the influence? is it a technique that you can you've developed? if so, can you teach me? it'll come in handy for when I have to kill people.
