Hello Bunnies, 'Tis been well over a year, I reckon, since last I addressed this list. I'm using my crap AOL account, which I dislike even more after seeing those creepy UK adverts with the red-headed woman with the psedo-breathy voice and scrolling shift dress. What's she on about, anyway? I've not bought my London ticket (have decided not to go to Glasgow as a) cannot afford and b) would also quite like to see Sonic Youth on same night. Oh Thurston Moore, oh Thurston Moore. I could write so many haikus about the lovely, lanky Thurston Moore. Won't do, however, for fear I'll be ejected from this list on a permanent basis.) . Anyhoo, have not bought London tickets because, uhm, I don't want to sit by myself., if seats are indeed involved So if any of my, like, three friends on this list were planning on buying an extra seat or what have you, maybe you could let me know? I've broken off a long-termish relationship this week, if only due to my own selfishness. I think I want another year before returning to the US, so I'm contemplating a few options. One is to flee to Japan and make my fortune teaching English (application is already at the Nova Group's head office). Another is to figure out a way to extend my visa and keep working for Arm*n*, but perhaps in the press office or somesuch. I don't really know where to go, and I feel like the mostest awfullest person ever, as the boy keeps calling and saying, "Don't worry, we'll work this out." And I keep saying, "We didn't have an argument. We broke up. That's why I haven't called you." Am I heartless? Am I awful? In any case, please accept this posting to the list as a number of pleas to my dear Sinister agony aunts. Am currently in search of therapeutic activities, and I'm MOST interested in my favorite Mark's new football organization. Question: do I have to wear shorts or can I just play in my regular clothes? I find football shorts a little creepy. I'll be the halfback in the jeans and heels. FYI, Mark and Vic, I've discovered that the 10k has no places left, which is utterly disappointing. Nevertheless, we'll be first in line next year, if I manage to stay in the UK. Okay? Okay! See you both and Miss Alder soon? I'm not naming any names, but someone's completely shattered my image of what Honey ought to look like. Thus, I'm never, ever, ever coming to a picnic. I prefer to imagine that all the boys on this list really do have floppy haircuts that fall in their eyes, and all the girls wear cardigans and pleated skirts. Well, maybe if I'm invited to a picnic, I'll stop by for just a few minutes... Well, actually, if I've not missed it, maybe I should pop by the next Greenwich picnic. It is, after all, within walking distance of my tiny flat. Okay, okay, I'll come to the picnic. You've twisted my arm sufficiently... Right. I must quit this nonsense right now. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
