I walk into the Cavern and it's this kid from school, the type who glom onto me, and think they are big shot writers.
I don't indulge them but they think I do, because they are oblivious.
So anyway we had a beer and then he got the bright idea to step outside and smoke a joint in the parking lot of the body shop...

Your horoscope, courtesy Madame Krakanova
Aries (March 21-April 19) Recent butterfly migrations have caused unexpected outbursts of enthusiasm for creative projects. This may or may not be a good thing. Don't paint yourself into a corner.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Are you lost, or just temporarily disoriented? Pay careful note to landmarks next time and it won't be so difficult to find your way home....

Addendum: No, I've never read either of those books, but they do sound like books I want to read. I usually read about 5-10 books at a time but lately I have shirked my other reading responsibilities because I've found myself nose-deep in Lolita... that book is to literature like a mound of hot fudge on vanilla ice cream is to food.
I'm going to do acid again tomorrow. Excited! Trying not to get addicted and don't think I am... however lately it has just been falling in my lap, and I'm young, so!

Sounds like you have my horoscope for the day: Just because you have all the time in the world doesn't mean you can waste it. Time has a way of leaking through the bottom of the bucket, if you know what I mean
I have some pork chops, onions, mushrooms and sour cream.
The one thing I'm lacking is lamps for the living room, which would add to my comfort.
Other than that, I'm ok.
Except I would like to share the pork chops with someone and have a long conversation about the Imagist movement.

yum the porkchops sound wonderful. I need new lamps too. I know nothing about the Imagist movement- want to tell me?
Well I was going to go out tonight but thought better of it.
I had just sat down in the bookstore when eskimo girl walked in with her most recent boyfriend. He said hello and made me shake his hand and she just kind of grunted and sat down facing away from me.
You'd think we had never met.
She generally acts that way when...

Sometimes, you think you've learned your lesson.
You have it all figured out
Then you see quite clearly that you didn't have it figured out at all.
So you incorporate that lesson and go out into the world.
Get hammered by it, and, like the rabbit you are, make a run for it.
Hole up somewhere and chew on it for a while.
Space out,...

You, my friend, are the sweetest.

Holy shit, that was amazing. You can write, my friend.
p.s. I also thought that what you wrote in my journal was funny. ..shallow water, eating prawns.

My life has suddenly become very amusing.
Gypsy girl came by yesterday, checked out my apartment and said "You need a woman." She's right of course but also quite practical.
Result: Tonight I have new curtains and a wood floor, whereas yesterday I had an ugy stained carpet and dingy curtains. It goes much farther than that
But last night, she took me out with...

It's true that there's no sense in hating my brain. It's not going anywhere.
What a whirlwind of wonderfulness. I think that's great. You and Gypsy girl can work on your house until it reflects all the new positivity.

I didn't know acid hits gained potency with age. Did you know psyllocibin was a fungus that plagued wheat farms back before, you know, health stepped in with the big gun called FDA? Might explain some of those "visions" prophets had in the Bible.

Hey:
I was reading through the poetry kicks ass group and I have to say you do a gerat job at giving advice - I'm sure the people contributing appreciate your considerate reading of their work.

HOW MUCH WERE YOU ON? (in reference to that LSD story you just related to me) I take enough to see shit and to "go places" but the "places" I go are more like stalled moments in time I get stuck in... but I've heard stories about people "going to other planets" and "talking with supreme beings", etc? Yeah I want to do THAT.
So far the most promising self-publish book I want to do is "Love: and other scary stories," which is a collection of love stories that are not really romantic or standard in the least. Original huh!

I'm thinking about taking some of my shorter stories or poetry to kinko's and self-publishing little booklets, selling them myself for a buck or two. What do you think?

School can be great. You're surrounded by lots of people, lots of opinions.
Getting involved with this website has done a lot for me too. It's surprising. I wasn't expecting it.

If you have a leaf-blower, please don't take it to the day-care center outside my window and use it. Someone is already doing that.
Just so you know.
I may bolt at any moment.
I have a couple of appearances scheduled, so I have to hang around here for a while, but, after last night, it's...

I loved that story. I have heard it before, but I didn't know it was Winston Churchill. I often think of that story just before the words "not EVERYONE has their price" ever fall out of my mouth. Hell, I'd even sleep with Winston Churchill for one million dollars! I mean, I feel like I whore myself every day at work. I suppose it's not *quite* the same thing because at least if sex were involved I would stand a *chance* of having a good time while being screwed.
Sooo ... I can see your butt!

I probably wouldn't have looked, if not for the commenter above. I have seen your crow flicks (coolness) but the other two folders were new. LOL. Maybe I should try the nekked shots in the dark. Soft lighting can really do wonders to counteract the effects of age and gravity ... oh, and alcohol! Have a great day, babe!
It's never even occured to me to take pictures of my ass before, much less post them on the internet.
I suppose I was just bored.
I went down to the Cavern for a shot and a beer, and ran into the same gal I saw there a couple of weeks back. She was just as talkative as before. I just wanted to look at...

But as for that annoying kid from your class: I'm working on a little something called the go-to-hell-wand. This seemingly innocent stick, in fact, causes whomever pisses you off to get sucked into hell until you leave the scene. That way you don't have to deal with the annoying person and he or she might learn a lesson.
