DISCLAIMER: this is not one of those goodbye post that tells you all you suck, so please, read on. It's been a week of strange epiphanies - including but not limited to *Tibetan Buddhism *Househunting nirvana: a live/work space at a bargain price that will allow me to fulfill my lifelong dream of moving into a huge unheatable warehouse like the characters in Rent *Run-on sentences that don't make sense *Overdoses of caffeine *Words said to me in a bar, late at night, that made me feel like I was in the elevator in the Empire State building that plummets to the ground so quickly that it feels like your body has been left behind at the top Now that I'm leaving for ports unknown (tomorrow I really am taking the bus from St. Kilda to King's Cross, then on to Britain & Europe - because for some reason English people think these are two separate places - then the States). It's time to bid you all so long, farewell, auf wiedershen, selamat datang and adieu (or should I say au revoir) until August. It's been swell, kids. Some poorly remembered parting words from Raymond Carver: And did you get what you wanted, after all? I did. To be beloved, To call myself beloved on this earth. Much love, your Sophia XXX P.S. I'm stuck in New York City on standby for 2 weeks in July. Anyone know anything fun to do in New York in July? _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
