halo sinister. swirling in there again. not sure what words will suffice to paint a portrait today. one of a girl much older than she looks, who's finally succomed to reality after having discovered that the boy and the girl are once again the boy and the girl. (another girl.) bah, i say. <story> tho it was one of the lowest days of ever yesterday, a miracle (a true blue spectacle) happened: since i needed the $ myself, i opted to fill in for my regular monday replacement at the piano bar instead of calling another alternate. monday nights aren't the gratest. people don't seem to like piano music on mondays. they'd rather have the music from the tin can speakers overhead. and feeling too sinister for standards myself, i decided to put the books away and play my own favorites. (playing for anyone that's there...) the bartender knew 1963, and sometimes he knows other things. but noone ever knows b&s. noone ever, except the boy and girl that used to come in and shyly say "thank you for the b&s". i could tell they were as shy as i, and we never exchanged much in the likes of communication save our knowing smiles. but i thought they had disappered. i thought they were never coming back, after seeing them for the last time on a night when i had a horrible, horrible singer to accompany that wouldn't shut up so i could play b&s and all the lovery things i like to play for people like us who know what might be better to listen to over dinner than some horrid squeaky soprano rendition of what should be the low and dark "what's new?"... or even worse, a shoddy attempt at "la canzone di doretta". cripes. but last night, just as i had exhausted my nightly repertoire of new wave and brit-pop standards and was ready to go home, they reappeared. hoorah! of course, then i was all nervous and shy again, but i stepped out of my bubble and spoke to them. they were super nice! and so adorable. i wish they would come every night. they even tipped me... which i don't think is right, cos i should be playing them for coming to keep me company and listen to my piano songs (he laughed when he recognized songs now and then... "hey! it's the smiths!" *chuckle* and that made me smile in there.) but now i have money (so broke) to renew my driver's license. it expired today. which means only one thing: it's my birthday, and i'm officially one year older than i've ever been in my entire life. and how shall i celebrate such a glorious achievement? by queuing at the dmv. bah, i say again. </story> so, once again, the day is saved thanks to... sinister: uniting our world to make it a better sounding place to eat, drink, and have picnics. lots of picnics. which i hope to attend this late july in l.a. with rachel the fruitloopin' rodeo [drive] queen and benny "grape ape" apps. i have to take notes on foreign relations/trade. i have it in mind to trade one ben apps for one juju fox. one u.k. sinister lad for one u.s. sinister lass sounds fair, doesn't it? i've arranged a courtship with sir chu, but if we can't fool the immigration, i'll go looking for a true love. wrong kind, right kind, i don't care. anyone to take my mind off the boy. sweets and treats to all. hearts, juju __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
