ah, life.
there's a part of me that would like nothing more than to do what I am doing right now--namely, listening to my mp3's on random, drinking beer & smoking Marlboro menthols (not my usual brand, but a local store has them on deal at 2 for one--so...)
& there's the other part that thinks that human companionship might be desireable.
today I practiced guitar for 2 hours & can almost do "Auld Lang Syne" finger-picking the chords & spent another 3 hours reading the fourth Harry Potter book--out loud--working in as many dialects (Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cockney, Manchester, Oxonian, BBC World Service, Plain American, Eastern American, Western American, & Modified House Elf.) as I could.
all of these practices make me particularly popular at parties, granted, but the fact that I like to, & NEED to, practice them in private makes me, in my own humble opinion, somewhat unsuitable for human consumption on a daily basis.
anyway, there are no fewer than 6 women whom I love, who love me.
which is groovy. which is wonderful. as I love all of them.
but.
I love all of them.
I can't say that I love any one of them more than the others.
& I won't. & I've made no secret of that.
ye gods--you wanted to drive humankind insane, so you created love, & then, as an afterthought, fidelity.
in 20 years I'll probably still post the same sort of thing: I practiced guitar, I read, I slept--alone.
ah, well.
to be loved by six women--I have that. for now I have that.

also Bastille Day!
viva la France, yo!
