iceinyourmusicthat he's "tired of horrible people doing well". Sometimes I kind of have to agree with young Wade.
The sick-being has progressed to the stage of the gross, which, yes. at least it's progressing. And (ohshitohshitohshit) suddenly I have an unexpected writing assignment on poetry due in less than a week, on top of all the other homework I've emphatically not done this week, and it's 4 pages 1½ spaced 10 pt which I suspect equals a billion words approximately, and, if you haven't been paying attention, my Writing English when I'm trying to make a point? is crap. craaap. doom. o sweet cruel Mistress thesaurus.
Yesterday, the priceless spectacle of the entire computer science department falling into wanton disarray and confused impotence over a black-out. Today I dragged myself to the library and stumbled about between the bookshelves. Too many bad books right next to good books and I can't tell the difference (spreading). Erlend Loe. Bought one of his novels at a sale during the funeral trip and I'd like to throw it away half-read if I believed in that sort of a thing. Style like a personal insult, like someone hammering away at the back of my brain with a, you know, hammer. Or maybe that's just the translation, I wouldn't know.
I also poked at some Heyer - I did read through that whole book of short stories by her, back when - but just thinking of her in novel-length makes me weary. There you have it! the truth! my lovelies: I'm a child of the MTV generation, I have an attention span that's four minutes long, (I want my rainbow-coloured Mickey Mouse slush puppie).
Here, go (re-)read Motion Pictures by Northern, it has that dreamy druggy groggy feel to it (unsettled). And it's short.
