Weekend was fine, big Spektra blowout on Friday night at Jekyll & Hyde’s with the old gang. The three grand social fund behind the bar kind of explained my grinning state later on. Still held it together though, a good time had by all.
Saturday back to The Smokie to see the folks, great stuff. Met my (very) wee niece Kira, who is cool but at three months somewhat lacking in chat. Some top flailing and drooling though.
Another great Sunday night’s sleep, ha ha. Had one winning self-referential dream where I was telling someone in detail how I kept dreaming about them. They weren’t very impressed (though I was when I woke up).
I now also know how a tracheotomy feels after being shot directly through the throat with an arrow. Was then promptly rushed off in a GTA-driven ambulance filled with sick children through a bizarre city.
Family pack of Nytol getting purchased on the way home : P
Should be able to soothe the demons tonight though with the sounds of Yo La Tengo.

Hello there my little chickadees.
You asked me to leave a comment on your posts, so here it is!
So don’t be ungrateful, y’fucks.
Ah yes, my livejournal URL is in the ‘homepage’ bit, strangely enough. If, for some obscure reason, this does not appear, it is http://www.livejournal.com/users/orangeappled
It makes for some truly self-indulgent/whiny reading, so take it with a pinch of salt.
Peace out, and all that other hippy crap.

You are so pretty, and you’re on your knees, Disaffected, and eager to please…*
*Talking of self indulgent.. Will get The Bends back to you as soon as I’ve taken it off my cd player long enough to rip it : )Don’t know wtf I did with my copy.
Grad Ball > T- 24hrs. Looking forward to it like chlamidia. Off into town to buy black trousers. I’m thinking linen and baggy as possible. Also getting my ‘air did today. Barbie pink. Yeah, I know it’s immature, but lets be as non-conformist as possible : )
Did they tell you I didn’t make team leader this year? Ooh-ooh-ooh. Big surprise. Mono is fast turning into my number one place for suicide bombing. Grrr. Apparently I’d have got it ‘if I kept my big mouth shut’… Missing the point? Yes, no change there, then..
Anyway. Here’s to academic purgatory. Will see you tomorrow, kid..
And hey kids! It’s MD’s first post! Yay!

tracheotomy > That’s gonna hurt, right? Do you feel pain in your dreams? I keep having that cliched one where you’re jump off a building, and at the moment of impact, wake up with a huge start. Scary.
Neitzche > Nice quote at the bottom of the entry page. 20th century existentialist dude, also came up with ‘what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger’ Way interesting guy. More later..
