it's funny that of the ten films playing on the plane from london today, one of them was a sex pistols documentary and another was sid and nancy. i think i was the sole person on the plane who watched either of them...definitely the sole person who watched both. here is a sad story: i have spent the past month rambling about in europe, and i thought it might be nice to keep some sort of journal of my travels. i am, for some reason, still working toward an art degree, so i bought a brand-new sketchbook before i left and spent a good deal of time filling it up...drawing the angels in florence and turning them into strumpets, things like that. it wasn't a very good sketchbook, but it was full of funny little drawings and a number of songs. one morning in amsterdam, aimee and i woke to find a dear irish boy crying in our room. we took him out for pancakes and ended up having a grand time with him, running around amsterdam and giggling at all of the cute boys. i found out later that not only was he absolutely lovely, but he was a sinister fellow. needless to say, i was having a ball, and on my birthday he wrote a pretty poem in my sketchbook. i think that the poem was the only pretty thing that has ever been in any of my sketchbooks, so i was very happy. i had to leave the next morning for london, and as soon as i arrived there i went to use the telephone...set my beloved sketchbook (now complete with birthday poem) on the little ledge by the phone and leaned down to get my change...and when i stood up, my sketchbook was gone. i don't know what sort of monster would up and steal a sketchbook, but it made me cry. i bought a new one, but it's empty and even when i fill it up, it won't have any pretty poems in it. the world is scary.
