I stay awake until I drop. It's hardest when it's dark of course, when the patterns my eyes make out of the murk start blending together and weighing down my lids. But plugging in a tacky plastic Virgin Mary nightlight into the outlet in the corner didn't help matters either. I'd just stare at it until it burnt a hole in the patterns and linger ( Read more... )

No, I'll skip cloy and go straight for insidious, thanks. There was never one defining moment when I knew for sure. There were plenty of jolts, plenty of "I could so easily fall in love with this person", plenty plenty plenty "good god, he is so fucking incredibly marvellously bizarre." He said, "Even if it wasn't safe" and I fell several ( Read more... )

Finally uncurling to enjoy the spring, spines laying down and flat. I've been shoving a few months' worth of socialising into a few days, wallowing in company as much as I wallowed in the Chuck E.

Her writing is possibility even more glorious than her icons. I've put their song Coin-Operated Boy here on YouSendIt for your listening pleasure. It ( Read more... )

I'd envisioned deppj giving his acceptance speech for the Best Actor Oscar, but the Academy chose Jamie Foxx to give that ( Read more... )

I'll be watching an annual event with much different eyes than I ever have before. I won't say "good luck" because I know you'd rather it be merit, not luck. This year might be an even tougher handful to crack than last, partly because of who they are, and who they represent. Times like this make me think of my mum, and hope that there is an ( Read more... )
