well, it looks like my dad is making a gift of his old car to me. my god, i don't deserve it. if i were him i would never do it. i think he thinks it proves he loves me. what a fool. him working two jobs and going to school full time. him shownig up on home school night. him visiting me in the hospital. him getting sick whenever i did. there's the proof. the things he did because it was his job to do them. that's love. anyone can make grand gestures. but consistincy, that's love. god am i lucky.
of course if it weren't for parents like mine i wouldn't have the same high standards, which of course leads to misery...but so what. i'm mentally ill...i'd be miserable anyway. ah well, i don't deserve it. but i'll take it. it sort of makes me feel like a total loser though.
other than that, nothing is new. i'm just rolling along. finally got to waytch dr. zhivago...really made me wish i was smarter. oh well, i couldn't be expexcted to get it all. what a tragic tale.
i subbmitted a slew of new poems. i won't bother posting the link until they are approved though. if people wanted to see them they would.
shit! i should call lulu and find out how her first week of work went. right after this i will.
just finished reading darkness at noon. what a coincidence...it really went well with watching zhivago today. just starting pete hamill's "A Drinking Life." can't wait to get into the meat and potatoes. i love ny stories almost as much as i love ny. hmmm...i wonder if pete hamill ever slept in a churchyard?
oh actually, one interesting thing happened...i got kicked out of a bar when i wasn't even there. my boss went back to the bar we started out at on tuesday and when he returned to work he said the barmaid had a message for me..."don't come back"
she said i was really cute and handsome until i opened my mouth. how's that foir a backhanded compliment!!!
that's always the way. people judge for all the wrong reasons. i wish people had a clue about me...especially the ones who don't hear beyond what they see. they weren't there in the days when every time i passed a mirror i wanted to cut my face into a plaid pattern with a razor and peel off the squares of skin. after years of being the ugly duckling the swan hated himself. b careful what you wish for. besides...i'm fast falling from swanness! i'm now ugly, old, balding, gray, and in the way. night kids!
