Monday night

***I am numbering my thoughts, in honor of Jean Robbins:

1) I just had a delicious meat pie and am really sleepy, though i still have this paper to write. Actually, first i have to finish the book in order to actually write the paper.

2) Today i was thinking about how horrible it would be to be trapped in the ground. You know, you dig a tunnel about 10 feet under the earth, say like a rodent. Except you're human still. But then someone fills in that hole from above. That would fucking terrible. Maybe i'm somewht claustrophobic too, but what an awful place to be trapped. Plus, you'd probabaly start sniffing up some of the dirt, and then start sneezing, and then use up your oxygen a lot quicker.

3) Is it a leap year this February??? Does anyone know? Please tell me, because secrets don't make friends.

4) So, i listened to the 6-11-1994 You Enjoy Myself (Red Rocks, CO) today for the first time in many months. Man, that really does it for me. I was heating up my leftovers rocking out hard to that final jam. Oh, Trey was so ON with those YEM solos in july 94. man! Also, listened to the whole show of 2-17-1997 Amsterdam; great Bathtub Gin in there, and that second set is soooo good.... way experimental, and Fishman nails it all through. Do you think they allow the crowd to smoke hash and dope out in the crowd at the Paradiso in Amsterdam? I would assume they would. Man, i bet there were some really stoned heads at that show.

5) I wish more people would leave me comments on my blog. Please?

6) I am going to see Mel Brooks' The Producers tomorrow at the ? theatre (i can't remember right now, though i was just talking about it), and am really pumped about this. Reportedly, many have burst skirt seams and pant buttons laughing so hard. How can you go wrong with Mel Brooks... i am thinking about History of the World, Pt 1 right now. So funny.

7) So, apparently this weekend, Wilds' house in Chapel Hill caught on fire in the middle of the night??? How crazy is that. I wonder how; I don't think they know yet. But, man, how freaky. I hope that entry floor bathroom with the trippy wallpaper was not damaged, because that room was tha heat!

8) So, i have taken a break from my poems (i have been way busy), but don't worry children, I've got ideas...brewing up there in my head, soaking up flavor, waiting me to take that immortal draught, and strain out the gems. Boil down the sustance, and cork the essence.

9) So, here are some pics from my weekend up in the Lake District... beauty unfathomable. These pics do not do it justice. Oh, an i went to the Wordsworth Museum and his old abode, Dove Cottage. I really loved the original manuscripts they had in there. Even had Wordsworth's old pair of socks !!! (they were gray) hahah, I shared a good laugh with myself about that. Behold, children of the night! ...
