hi sinister, I'm sitting in a hot computer lab trying to work on my essay, which isn't happening, so I thought I'd send off a nice little note to sinister. once I finish this essay, though, I'll be DONE! until september. so the london picnic was pretty ace; mostly it seemed to involve lots of drinking. and walking up large hills. I thought I was going to die. seriously. whose idea was it to put the toilet at the *bottom* of primrose hill, anyway? that shows blatent disregard for the needs of indie people on 5 may 2001, and really should have been thought of beforehand by the london town government people. I'm writing to my congressman or woman. after the picnic was tigermilking, which also involved lots of drinking. funny that. but mark casarotto did a wonderful thing, because I got to show off my keen dancing skills. did you see the guy in the red jumper and flares having a epileptic fit? that was me! now let's have a new york picnic, people... even though I was simply too lazy to go to the last one. I've also adopted a new persona: eric the half a bee. not very creative, I know, but after meeting people at the picnic who had no bleeding idea who I was, I decided I needed a catchier moniker than "eric". I will be taking suggestions for a keen nickname until 15 july. the prize is my undying love, or barring that, a peanut-butter sandwich. I'll be leaving london next week to go back to the land of proper peanut butter, must-see tv, and insanely underqualified heads of state... I'll give you three guesses. alright, it's america, silly. I don't want to go back; does any female-type listee wish to marry me so I can stay? it would make my triumphant return (with any luck) to do an MA that much easier, as well. I'll cook dinner three nights a week. no diapers though; it's just icky. starry-eyed, eric the half a bee ps I met honey! wow. I'm such a dork. ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
