Monday 28 September 2009

what now?

it is the last day of the long weekend and im not done yet... there is more to be done yes? i have joined a library. read 3 books. and 1 short story. painted 3 tees. just painted. steamed the sickness out of me. sneezed mad amounts. woke up in the middle of the night with a stuffed nose..and just watched (500)days of summer... which i must admit has left me restless and wanting to go do something. anything. something more. but what? (anything but bathe..i should bathe...but i dont wanna..)

its that time again...

september is almost ended...october will be upon us and with it ..HALLOWEEN!! this year i feel like constructing something complex...party or no party..come oct 31st i will be dressed like a loon... some initial thoughts follow :D im leaning towards 'dharmabear' or 'bunnysuit' or maybe 'holymackerelboy'... or 'bluechickwithagodcomplexwhosactuallyagod' :p

ps.
it is possibly a bad thing that im following (aka stalking) neil gaiman and his daughters on twitter...

how to deal?

why i like wednesdays - by pavi (age, 23 or 5 depending)

anthropomorphic personification of wednesday

wednesdays are the best day of the (work) week (not counting saturday which is the best day of the week for obvious reasons). i have a variety of theories to explain the sudden lift in mood that comes upon me on wednesdays.

1
wednesday begins with the letter double-u (or) 'w' sometimes known as doobluhvay. and 'weekend' also begins with the aforementioned excellent letter. so its a visual brain illusion...leading to the whole day feeling a bit like friday night.

2
-when's the day?
-today! it's whensday!
-awesome!

3
Wen's day
Wen - Wen the eternally surprised.
figures.

the evolution of barnes, julian

key: read/unread/tried to read

metroland
weirdly read it without absorbing the plot it would seem. only remember the bit about the orange street lights (beautiful and haunting, think about it whenever im out walking at night) and the tiny betrayal bits...overall not a violent book.
before she met me
so violent but also so funny. probably the funniest. in an incredibly morbid black comedy fashion. think coldblooded.
flaubert's parrot
staring at the sun
very un barnes in that its lacking the usual themes of twisting jabbing stabbing betrayal. funny in a barnes way. and simply lovely so far.
a history of the world in 10 1/2 chapters
talking it over
oh joy. stuart, gillian and oliver. fucked up. real. oozing betrayal.
the porcupine
letters from london
cross channel
england, england
love, etc
yippieyay. again. stuart, gillian and oliver. fucked up. real. oozing more betrayal.
something to declare
in the land of pain (translation)
the pedant in the kitchen
the lemon table
arthur & george
nothing to be frightened of

wouldve thought he wrote staring at the sun after talking it over/love, etc. after having got the betrayal after his system. i think he got the violence out with before she met me. then got zen. then something horrible happened...
ok its not that zen (staring at the sun) just realised its largely about suicide. hmm should i be worried that my brain interpreted that as zen. probably. but im not.

im not a fan of sunday evenings generally but feel better now. was majorly down in the afternoon. dee left for a date a little while back (bf and bf's parents, last min plan, hastily changed outfit :D, i twittered about it) im glad we're roomies. its too cute.
both the nikhils (aka. "the nikhil") have been online this weekend, random convis ensued.
omg and now chrishelle (my bunnie) is online. my day is made! she's gone off to shower. but will be back. with a dream to tell me about. yippieyay.
gaaahhh why wont the songs dload faster. i want noah and the whale now!
