if i'm sorry, sorry enough

"if there is such a thing
but
that is between me and the dreams dear
and
we,
me and those dreams,
we’re getting along
just fine
so
know that
know that
all the way
into
your safe channel
whatever those blankets
look like
but
remember
me
and my eyes
and
what it looks like when i laugh
belly ease
and
calm
because
you aren’t made of a lie
and you
you did that
and you
you
you’re magick
and
me
i am here
i am here
in an ours fingers crossed position
locked down
in the cobwebs
no matter
where
my body goes
just so
just so
you know
perfect dreamer
nylon string hunter
feedback maker
soul
restarting device
or
recurring ever-present
love"

um, i don't really, can't really say anything after reading that.
but i got Cardinology in the mail today. and have listened to nothing but that since then.
um, i don't really know what's happening right now.
i worked today after a couple weeks absence. hate my job. hate the smell of brunch foods and the sound of clinking dishes and people stuffing their faces whilst asking me for more and expecting me to carry out their every whim. people disgust me. working in a restaurant just kind of kills me. and i see how much waste goes down. and how terrible people are. but i like to people watch. so that's a plus. and free coffee? while getting paid. why not.

so, i'm writing a really horrid novel. i'm saying this because advice says to tell as many people as possible so that on week 2 the fear of humiliation will keep me writing. and i know i'll need that kind of motivation. so i'm writing a novel. it's killling me.


i'm trying to think logically. here.

dear impossible,

… how i will miss you

i miss you even now"

I am in LOVE with Cardinology. I bought it yesterday, and it's all I can listen to.

P.S. I think it's really cool that you're writing a book.

ah, it is really great. i'm really impressed.

hah, thanks, although it's going to take a long time to make it bearable for people to read. if i let anyone read it that is.
