Ever try ballroom dancing to drumnbass? It’s hard, but that’s how we met. I felt crazy so I grabbed her and she span round, smiling. I took her hand and somehow she knew what to do. We fooled around; walking through jungles of limbs, pirouetting in turn. I knew her face but not her name. She had dark hair, a red dress and tiny cowboy ( Read more... )

I went as a dead religious stockbroker (had a bible and under my dark glasses was a ton of blood and heavily made-up 'sleepless eyes')

I haven't read that, although it rings a bell. Currently I'm just getting a general overview by reading wikipedia, essays online, plus all the things I have access to b/c of uni (unabridged reference dictionaries, academic journals etc.)

Is there a web-link to excerpts from that online? Could you point me in the direction of some useful links?

That excerpt was really... Hm. I think "delicious" sums it up. Yes, definitely delicious in several different ways. I really like it.

And on another note, what a fantastic photographer! Must be a pro...

Thankyou! I want to put more up but I think I'll wait till the next entry when I'll give the second half of chap 1. I'm really glad you liked it!

Yeah, the photographer was probably the only person who has ever sewn a really cool decemberist top and is generally nice ;)

yeah, there's a bit in levitacus (sp?) which says "THOU SHALT NOT EAT CRAYFISH ON A SUNDAY, OR ANYTHING OF A SHELL"

So yeah, I've had crabs and prawns on many sundays, so I'm going straight to hell! BUNG

That said, there are some parts of it which are amazing, though those are mostly in the old testament and just involve some christian 'warrior' eg - Samson - beating the shit out of any tribe which isn't christian / from israel

lovely stuff!

My name is jack. Added.

Do you write? What do you find interesting?

Today I feel so tired because last night I went to another party and one of my mates was spinning on the decks so I danced for fucking hours and got back at dawn and had a pizza with my friends and just eurgh. Good night though.

i write a little bit. but nothing is really very good. i really like to read david sedaris and if you know that author then i'd kinda say thats a little like my style.
for interests it can get cloudy, i enjoy being in the company of complete strangers at a party, dancing basically every style for about 20 hours a week and finding new music to listen to, which comes in handy when you competitvely dance.

can't say that i had the exact same ngiht as you, but i did end up going to mcdonalds around 2am and when i woke up this morning i still tasted that cheeseburger. that can get pretty rank with an after shock of vodka as well.

dancing is amazing. I have only got into recently (because I got confident enough to realise that no one gives a fuck how you dance and it helps everyone else have a good time.)

New Music is my saviour. That's pretty cool that you competitively dance...I wish I had some moves!

I saw a post (which I think you later deleted) but I'd love to read a section of your novel, it'd be incredible. Also, could you at some point - when you find the time - give me some criticism on the first chapter I gave you?

Anyway, hope things are going well, it saddened me to hear about your condition(s?), hope things are ticking along...
