Currently in Los Angeles...
So I've determined that it's not a coincidence, and I have decided that I am mimetic. I have to reconcile myself with the fact that whenever I get close to someone, we somehow adopt a series of encoded rituals, words, phrases and other symbols of exclusivity.
For instance -- a few entries ago I recorded the frustration of someone who was unable to decipher many of my linguistic oddities. The other evening we were talking to one another in a crowded room. Afterwards he commented, "The entire time we were talking to one another, I realized that we were basically saying things that no one else there could understand."
At which point I pointed at him and did a little jig. *jiggityjig* So quickly one of my detractors finds that when he stares into the abyss of my incessant memes and injokes, the viral mimeticism stares back at him! Yarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :arr:
I have a couple of sets sitting in my little 'sets' box, not queued... and I'm dying for them to go up, sigh. One's the very first set I shot... the other one is the 2girl set with Flux. Yum!
When I get back to Portland... must shoot something else.
I finally got 12 straight hours of sleep. Fuck yes.
Went to this awesome bookstore in Santa Monica, CA today called the Midnight Special. When I was in high school and they were in their old location, I spent way too much time there, being indoctrinated with all sorts of awesome, sexy and bizarre liberal ideas. And now look at me! How perfectly damaged.
Booty:
'The Simpsons and Philosophy: The D'oh of Homer'
'A Scanner Darkly'
'Book of Lies - The Disinformation Guide to Magick and the Occult'
To read this weekend:
Finish Valis.
Finish Marx & Engels.
Read Madame Bovary.
I'm such a sucker for... like.. y'know... linguistic, visually rendered signifiers, arranged sequentially to convey meaning... bound together with shiny covers... *humps ALL of them*
When it's four in the morning and I haven't slept in almost three evenings and I'm crying and totally tweaked, man, and the response is total understanding, I've got to be thankful.
