Hello! Sinister! So, I saw that my doppelganger, Robin, has been posting a lot, as if to say, hehe, Robyn, see how I post and you do not? That is because I am your more powerful, all-b&s-knowing, british self! mwaha! He has interesting stuff to say and even stuff to say about tweeness, etc. Whereas, I. do. not. He also drinks a lot of tea. I've switched to yerba mate because i like to jump on bandwagons two years too late. He talks to strangers, I just take candy from them. *But* I must defend the Robyn with a y Robyn that is me by writing to sinister after a long long time of not writing to sinister. CRAZINESS concerts? albums? struan writing blog-style? so much in the way of actual B&S News! it's craziness, i say. Despite living in Montreal, I couldn't go to the New York concert (y'know, when I moved here I was, like, ooh, so close to New York! Cool! and then soon I was, like, so close to New York! Painful! Why can't I be one of those *rich* students? it's all my own fault, etc.). I had (and continue to have!) no money. A friend told me not to be "greedy", since I have seen B&S twice already. But c'mon, I am a FAN and member of an elite listserv dedicated to B&S, smut, and the relaying of timid fumblings in the dark. I need to go to concerts to retain my membership. Alas, while my soul was in Brooklyn when the day came, my ass was in Montreal, getting drunk on $10 pitchers and singing Rick Astley songs at a dimly lit karaoke bar. CYBORGS My thesis proposal is shaping up. As am I, after a long, cold winter (Summer hasn't been long enough. Need more.) I still wish I were part machine though. It would be great, even if it were just an mp3 player built into my arm. ooh. C'EST L'ETE (with implied accent marks) For all of July I was immersed in a French immersion course thingy in Moncton, NB to fix up my French. And now my french is fixed up! It's remarkable. Soon I will be a real canadian! just like in the movies! COMFORT I've noticed a tinge of emotions re: la liste in a few posts lately. A few 'remember whens' and a few 'gee, you guys...'. ow, the place where my heart should be constricts with love. I too am glad Sinister exists. I've been glad for years. And even though I've been busy and whatever, I'm still glad. I even went to chat in #sinister and felt that heart-type constriction and warmth again. ooh ah ooh. learning's on tv! Robyn p.s. adam brody on "the o.c."! i don't get crushes on tv stars, but, damn, a tv star the likes of him has never been created before. swoon swoon. and there are plenty of gratuitous adam brody looking cute and nerdy shots. the best! ===== I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything. ~Steven Wright ~~~ Robyn Fadden rfadden@yahoo.com Montreal, QC http://apoemabouteverything.blogspot.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
