Melodrama, Modernism & Myth

[princenarcissus]

Yesterday I was in a state of utter gloom about my least favorite day of the year, and the typically awkward, basically "nice," (a word which should be pronounced in this case with a slight hiss), yet ultimately unsettling conversation with my father did nothing but exacerbate my melancholy. I'm particularly upset about the news I received late

Damn! That was fast, I just mailed that out on Saturday. Well, hurrah! I'm happy it made your day. :) I wanted to get you more stuff with female writers, but not surprisingly had a tougher time with that. But the people who make those finger puppets (which are also magnets!) do have some female writer stuff that I want to order... *ponders your birthday package*

I'm sorry to hear about your grandpa. My dad had a heart valve replaced... of course he was 60, not 80. Big difference. Best wishes to him.

Camille, you are so sweet. What a dear heart you are. Can't wait to have our own place so you can come visit!

Well, I must say I feel intimidated every time I try to post a reply in your house, your language is so exquisite and proper I fear to pollute it with my stagnant pitiful attempts. But I have to.

They say if you have a friend you have a treasure, but señor mio, you have the National Treasure there! Among the envy-provoking list, I would name Titus, which remains as my second favourite film, and Anguished English: An Anthology of Accidental Assaults Upon our Language, that I should very well purchase for myself, smiling.

I really hope your grandfather overcomes his heart condition. He sounds like a man worth meeting. I wonder if there is something of that cowboyish spirit within you as well. If that is so, I could start devising a private name for you, as Narcissus sounds too vain for a future young-mind shaper.

I am very sorry about your grandfathers condition.I only hope that he will get fine.His 80 years will make the situation more complicated indeed but I really wish he transcends this hardship.
