it's another day to spend inside. it is so hot that i have only been venturing out of the house after the sun sets. two nights ago elizabeth, a girl from work, invited some of us over to play, and her house is huge and old and reminded me of a murder mystery, and we sat in the garden room and took turns playing chopin's nocturnes on the piano and sometimes one of us would play with some castanets and the sound was quite interesting. we also made up a lazy blues song but we were all to drunk and shy to sing very much. my job is becoming stranger every day. yesterday we had no business at all and four of us were working and we spent all day making up dances and playing dress-up. corin took a lovely photo in which elizabeth was trying to be a gangster and wearing a sign that said "WANKER," i was wearing a strapless gown, long black gloves, a sparkly mask and yellow runners, and mike was wearing a blue plastic bag over his head with a pair of orange sunglasses. we also formed a percussion ensemble, the four of us behind the counter punching the keys on the cash register, tapping on the glass with the blunt end of a feather duster, shaking the pin-box...a crowd of three people watched with amusement and actually clapped a bit at the end of the seven-minute performance. the rest of the day was spent creating "art" from found objects and trying to devise a way to run down to the bar at applebee's and sneak back into the shop with four margaritas. oh dear my mother is going to be home soon and i'm still in my pjs and have been lounging around for four hours. astrid: bootylicious is the most atrocious song i have ever heard. it makes me want to spew...i guess i'm just not ready for that jelly. luv kirsten 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.
