so i am leaving the states on friday, and my mother just turned away from the basketball game on television to make sure that i know better than to get drunk in a foreign land...even though it's legal...just in case. she's worried i'll get pissed and lose my passport somewhere and, tragically, never be able to come back to wisconsin. HA! (that's what i say to that.) i just found out that i won't be able to go to the lovely picnic before the RAH gig, as i am flying home that morning. that is, i'm flying home, provided i haven't gotten sloshed and lost my passport. hmmm..... today i was working at the great harvest bread company and a boy i met a week ago came in and apologized for some reason, handed me a cd he'd made for me, and then he went all red and left. i feel sorry because i think that i embarassed him somehow. i was embarassed too, i suppose. laura tells me to stop hiding from boys, but i have to say it's much easier to hide than it is to know what to say to a red- faced boy apologizing to you for giving you undeserved gifts in the place where you work. i believe i'll fall in love with someone who can't stand the sight of me, so that we will never have to see each other. my flat is empty except for a robot suit and a bit of silver shred in the bottom of a jar. i love silver shred....i'm gross, too. i eat great sticky globs of it. i eat it on toast, but i am occasionally tempted to eat a giant spoonful out of the jar. thus far i've been able to stifle this urge by telling myself "kirsten, you are sick." a kid just returned the squarepusher disc he'd borrowed. i was happily holding damien jurado as collateral and was sorry to see him go, but i am happy to have my disc back and i believe i should go listen to it now. love kirsten "that's not a penis, it's a goose." --my dear cherry kong Care2 make the world greener! http://www.care2.com - Get your Free e-mail account that helps save Wildlife! +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
