k pooree drinkee drinkee, smokee smokee, golly! who would’ve thought this
monkey would be so etc.? one remembers many words; phrases; stories; whatzit.
seems 9 us is only seems. and all the parts just parcel about the place.
so much unhappiness, indeed indeed, and but I couldn’t figure out why until
later, specifically. and then all the pieces sort of match together into
answers, like portfolios of errata which suddenly sort according to jell-0
molds. footnotes and endnotes and digressions and tangents. conversation
progression: 1-worky; my worky; etc. and brief london mention; la. 2-school–why
do I keep meeting passionate students? it’s driving me batty. do I believe
in signs? perhaps this is one… she’s going for lawyering, mediatation 3-poetry–what
poetry do you like, she says? and the mind goesbrieflyblank… so chatter
chatter, yammer. me. she mentions some, but I foollike, do not write them
down, must get those later… if poss. 3a. do you like bjork? yes, I say.
which is true, but also the right answer. sensed importance, but couldn’t
tell if that was adoration or loathing in her voice, etc. prior to 4-garbledinbrain,but
some kind of pseudoreligiouspolyspiritualsillyclaptrap stuff (how did this
arise? talking about mum’s whatzit? can’t recall… conversation got weird.
i remember bugs. “everything is nothing. we are nothing. we don’t exist.”
but i kept wanting to say, but how does this make life more livable? interesting
stuff about her buddhist friend in india, though. 4a. Locus Solus. I can’t
stop bringing this book up around people. it’s so groovy. i really need a
copy of this book. 5-then with my breakfast gambit, which threw the monkeywrench,
and convo took turn for the better etc. far as I could tell and still more
drinks kept pouring down the gullet. does she smoke when she’s nervous or
is that just me? 6-serverchap wants to cash out, he’s goin’ home! so we decide
to vamoose. “want to go somewhere else?”
etc. me startled, at first. all so, indeed. the powell’s suggestion leadballoons,
but so we wander. decide on: lowkeylowbrow (notlowkeyhighbrow,nothighkeylowbrow,nothighkeyhighbrow)…
and bewildering me, we return to hung far low’s. where the light’s so red,
and the darkness warms the sky. (note: perhaps the cutest hat I have ever
seen. found outside of a bar, or so she) 6a-physical transition=hat, sushi,
sistersushi, the entrancemixup 7-sitting in dark, red candle like, asking
about lighter thingy which she always messssssed with til I commented, then
she sat it aside. funnnnny. abalone thing from mexico, sistergiven or so
I 8-then london again to awesome london underground to mass transit in portland
(possibility of underground here? prob. unlikely, but nice idea) to my loathing
of buses and my, um, busclaustrophobia. not quite a phobia but makes me a
crzy person. and so, then, etc. cars. and then the accident, recent, which
sounded horrible. and then the wild and craziness of the death of her brother
recent (didn’t want to talk about it, but she just did) weird. 9-earthquakes
(perhaps this is what led into caraccidents?) the big one in 89. 10-family
stuff. europeanmuttbutpolish. me it’s irish throughanthrough. geneological
fever in meownfam. 11-mentioned wilde’s selfish giant, dunnowhy 12-always
the conversation swoops and soars. but then it droops into politicks, I’m
so sad and bored and have no more skill at steering than a gobblegore. we
both concur, the wave of influence is receding. in spite of passion etc I
just can’t fall into the political paranoia. 13-if we talked about anything
else I don’t recall it. soon the evening ended. all in all, interesting
and entertaining, a doubleplusgood sort of evening.

what a strange and curious weekend it was. I was all set to go to the party
in lackadaisical fashion and to wish a yohoho to everyone there and then
vanish away, once done. but the call came in and I had to bustlybustly off
to the hospice with her, playing hospitaller and etc. the row of olympics-watchers
all in a row, made me think that everything was funny and that they were
all related somehow or in-relation to one another apart from just the geometrical
progression that they inhabited, watching those silly ‘sledders sliding down
their little track. “this is no curling!” i said to myself, or said that
I said later. they made me laugh though and took my mind for a moment off
of my bronchial friend in the room away. things seem quieter now, even though
I’m more tired than I can shake a stick at, because I’m too tired to lift
any old stick at all. didn’t sleep hardly a wink that whole night or maybe
I just don’t remember that. busy refilling waterglasses and etc. silly me,
though tired, traipsed off with mb to ‘nother party after just a twain of
twinklers. znooz. drank like a fish, but couldn’t keep up with the tenor
of the party. just wanted to sit in ye old couch, until the matresser came
along and started asking questions about the “pulse of the culture” and some
rubbish. I told him that he should talk to the people who anticipate the
“pulse of the culture” and he said goddamn and dammit and whatzit swearing,
but it was funny when he sat down and said, “read to me.” but all I had was
a sillier magazine with a silly comic strip I didn’t feel like reading. I
should have said. but I didn’t. I should have read something better than
that silly comic strip. this makes me think: I have picked up things to
read at many parties. it’s antisocial, yes. no one’s ever called me on it,
like that. opinion revising itself, although he still had innocuous things
to say about things. I surrepped to the loo and it transpired as I predicted
that my couch seat next to mattresser was interdicted. sure sure, bereft
the mbee to languish under his painful discourse, but all’s fair in partyparty.
I’d heard stories (and the coworker just drank so ever like a fish that I
couldn’t even think how funny things were, and but those two antiquarian
typewriters made me revise just a bunch of old things in my brain; it was
an evening for brain revision, now I look back on it.) of this painfully
shy girl, but she didn’t seem shy, drunk or barricadoed in an antisocial
textual place. instead, found her speaking freely to the mbee (silly psych
teacherwoman with her nocommentnocomment, immediately after her comment,
presuming to make some judgement about her perception of her reality tunnel,
when you’d think she’d be wiser than that.) but this shy girl, was unnaturally
shy, based upon her unnatural alcoholickal crutching. she ended up whirling
in the closet. I am amused by too many things. and so I left and didn’t make
a fuss when the mbee clamored to flee. ya, I said, ya, let’s flee this monkeyland.
(this is me thinking of rules and derryold pumpkins. but no, I’ll just anyold
which way, because that’s enough for me) yug

we’re feeling so chatty and the cup’s burning our hands so we’re holding
it in(wethink) a very funny way and all the eyes just keep flying around
the room and down to the table and the cheessplayers(clocksclickclak) are
mumbling their chessplaying moves , to be sure , and no one ever wins anymore
in that silly old game. how sad to lose with just 7 seconds remaining on
your opps clock, unless I’m disremembering. the old cloak just burns around
our eyes, wordswordwords, but I’ve got an idea now and only everything is
silent then all what’s this thought? stigmata? bleeding from the hands. but
would the blood stain? or would it just clean things really well? or would
it stain forever, fresh as the day it bled? is the ground on Golgotha forever
stained? Read: THE THREE STIGMATA OF PALMER ELDRITCH by Philip K. Dick. Not as good as THE DIVINE INVASION, but very interesting.

Also, just read AS I LAY DYING. this book kicked my ass, but in a good way.
