Talk of the war gives me a pain behind the eyes.
Lauren has been in contact from the hospital with a little news and a lot of heart. Every cryptic word and god-damned poetic exchange is a reminder that Love was the most destructive thing that I ever tried. I feel stalked right now by it even after trying to give it the slip for...

She likes the taste of my blood on her claws.
When I'm not looking, a private cat will rinse her teeth
in a savoury disolve.
Don't turn your back on me
and don't lick your lips when
I show you the cut.
It's only been recently
that you have tried to
sleep on the retractable keyboard rest.
It is nice

The eighties as a decade is always a plural and never a possessive FOR THE MOST PART. There was a series on VH1 called "I Love the '80s." In TV Guide, they printed it correctly; however, many of the graphics in the program wrote it as "80's." That's incorrect, and I see it A LOT. Especially since I'm interning as an assistant copy editor at a multiconglomerate entertaintment corporation.
If you want to say that the eighties had a colossol hairspray market, you may say, "The '80's hairspray market was colossol." Most style guides, however, will tell you the write it out as eighties' because the numerical form looks awkward. In fact, most style guides (including the Chicago Manual for journalism, the MLA, et cetera) will mark '80's as wrong but eighties' as right. It's weird, but grammar rules are often picky and weird.
I suggest you pick up this book. It's very useful. Also, go check out this article. And it is not "colosal." It's "colossal."
Although, now that I look at your profile, you are not American. So a style guide based on American modern usage won't be of much use to you. There are many Oxford guides to English usage that you might find helpful.

I have two chief afflictions. The first and most long suffering are my eyes, which often refuse to cooperate. I don't have a 'lazy eye' as such but I can look in two directions at once, even watch something with one eye and track another object with the other. I can do that with both eyes. Personally, I quite enjoy practicing this but I'm sure...

Once again, I'm in trouble with my only friend
She is papering the window panes
She is putting on a smile
Living in a glass house
Once again, packed like frozen food and battery hens
Think of all the starving millions
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones
Your royal highnesses

What happend to Nala? Is she an Ex - suicidegirl?

are you talking to yourself?
It's time I fought AC (alex cook) the dream weaver.
I heard that controling your dreams is a talent. Who - here - can't control their dreams? Anyway, Alex can do it while he is awake. He calls them astral journys. I wonder if they're dangerous sometimes. Horror stories anyone?
Here's something he wrote which I shouldn't show you but the particular volume that this...

Hiya everybody
I have to tell all passers-by that my mouse has these Back and Forward buttons on the side. I was awake until 6am last night and I waited until five at the computer waiting for an opening line for my journal and panda-ing with a possible attack on the SGUK group. I must be thumbing the Back one at least once a day....

No it's not.
It's ronan's birthday and if I write anything I will get even more depressed today.
When, oh when, will I stop smoking so much weed? At least that is a possitive thought, init.
Bah-humbug.

My house is full of Christians, (my sister being the pope and all) and they're kinda nice. Very accepting on the whole, I guess. Some of them are a little intimidated by me but that's fucking normal. *sigh*
My God, SG, don't be mean to me, I'm not really a shite.
Please help me!
