matter-eater lad is stumped.
today, i bought a new book by gary lutz. here's a sentence:
"she was a milk-warm girl in bad odor with herself, glad to have at last come down in the world."
is it possible he's better than he was? can gary lutz really do the one thing i didn't think he could do: make me...

tiny plastic nun on a window sill.
today, i was in a thrift store. on the radio, i heard an ad for a weekly fundamentalist service in one of the little burgs outside of seattle. they offer, in addition to salvation and eternal life:
free coffee
free krispy kreme donuts
plenty of parking

the one tiny nun makes that windowsill look like a cathedral.
i'd like to thank all the people who made my journey home so interesting tonight.
first, thanks to the fire truck that pulled out in front of me, prompting the cross to the other side of 50th, and instead of heading straight home that way, convincing me to go down to 45th and see if a bus might happen by. thank you, brave men and...

i think your friend is going to have to buy you dinner again this year.
the book is written by an autistic boy. some say it's a hoax, but i believe it's true. (i want to believe it's true.)

thanks to you, mattereaterlad for your lovely description. it has made my time in your journal well spent.
on another note..i have not seen "let america laugh" but my shoulder makes an appearance in it along with my really drunken friend ben who is performing the "can i have this cahir" skit by himself. they MADE him do it! and supposedly they made him look like a total asshole with the way that they cut it. i hear that they really rip n the fans in this one. if that is true i dont think that is too cool, but i havent seen it yet so i cant say for sure.

i walked from the bus stop to my apartment tonight at about 9:45pm. the street home is heavy with traffic. but, as i passed the zoo, the cars thinned.
and, for a fw moments, i heard the lion. he wasn't giving a full-throated roar, but a quick series of "hrrrunnng...hrrrrunnngg...hrrrunnnggg"s. then, the cars returned, drowing out the sound.

Holy Fuck!!! I checked out that link above....can't believe it. I used to have a few of the tracks on a CD a friend made for me, and I still have my precious copy of Smiley Smile...
So, any more beatific lion experiences out there in the west?

That is cute. It is great when you can experience quality time that way with the kids. Mine haven't been quite as endearing around the computer.
(I'd take Linz up on that offer if I were you.)
