It's astounding
Time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll.

Seriously, I don't know what is up. Maybe it's the cold, or the stress. I'm definitely ON TOP OF THINGS, but I am feeling like a wire stretched to the snapping point. All kinds of weird coping behaviours are manifesting themselves. And here I sit, observing, as if it isn't ME who is mixing up a small bowl full of shortbread dough with ABSOLUTELY NO INTENTION OF BAKING IT. Just eating it right out of the bowl. Weird, yeah?
Also, my life is being sort of taken over by Scandinavians. First, Roxie on the Rocket. Then, Dubbel Zoute licorice. (that means double salt, by the way. weird)Then, Finncrisp. Also, the Swedish military issue long underwear and wool socks my girlfriend got me last year. Everywhere I look...Scandinavians. It's not BAD, at all, it's just something I've noted in the past week.
I'm not going to try to catch up in detail, because my fingers are cold, but I'll make some notes: there was a nice LUPEC gathering on Sunday about Women Spiritualists, and Monday I went out to dinner at Piper's Pub where I had a Guinness and scotch eggs and then when my cottage pie came I had to take most of it home, and then on Tuesday I went for coffee with an old friend I haven't seen in...possibly close to a YEAR! and it was nice to catch up and talk politics and fetish porn, and there was Roxie radio this morning, and a band practice tonight. Also, I finally got the Nightmare Returns DVD (Alice Cooper show from 1986) and I fucking HATED it. I tried to watch it last night and Alice sounds bad and looks creepy(not in a good alice cooper way, either) and then there is that cartoonishly freaky Kane Roberts on guitar. I couldn't even watch it all the way through. I was going to try to do a review of it for the Alice website I visit but I fear I could think of very few nice things to say, so I probably won't. Ek. Ptuey.
I finally typed the word ROCKTOBER today. It's already the 25th and this was my first time. I am definitely slipping.
