Sinister: It's gonna take an airplane to get me off the ground

[rrrrobyn]

s to the etc. et al.,

(I'd like to thank mr. k.chu for prompting me to drag this email from
the draft folder and finish it with a quickness. he's an inspiring
kinda guy, that ken.)

I think i just survived the winter. No, it hasn't officially ended,
but I did wear normal shoes this week and not (grumble) boots. and
the sun was actually warming (however briefly).

but blah blah blah, BUT in two weeks I will be in London and it will
be Spring! (well, it'd better be.) How exciting is this?! (for me?!)
I've got about 30 million things to do before I get on that plane,
but that will just make my London time even better (I'm
hypothesizing...). There should be much: dancing, embibing,
museum/gallery-going, wandering together and alone, window shopping
and crying over the glory of shoes (my god, i cried inside today when
i popped into my favorite shoe store to check out the new spring
shoes - white slip-on campers with embroidered fushia flowers! i
blinked back the tears of joy and pain. how is $268+15%tax at all
fair or sane? beauty should be free or at least offered at a discount
to worthy people. ah, but beauty is costly. stupid beauty.)

but yeah, so here i am wrapped up in a blanket b/c we mistakenly
turned our heat down, waiting for winter to end, thinking about
whether to watch american idol tonight or whether to *not waste my
time* (oh, you know i'll watch. i love it. both the wasting time and
the watching painful tv. and tv has not been my friend these past two
weeks - no new episdoes of the O.C. nor of Gilmore Girls. i'm still
on my
boycott-CSIs-and-Law&Orders-because-they-are-bad-for-my-mental-health
stint, meaning the tv has been neglected because those shows take up
half the weekly prime-time schedule, i swear. so the tv is like
"please watch 'judging amy' or 'forever eden', pleeese." and i'm like
"no. you bastard." and then we stare blankly at each other.
eventually i leave.)

oh oh, and will there be a Brighton Picnic/Day? Archel posted about
this but then nothing and I have been too slack-ass with the emailing
to have asked earlier. i should get on #sinister, i should.

At this point i'd like to say "Sinister Picnic - Worldcup Germany
2006!" If that's too futurismic, then I hope to be seeing all kinds
of "Sinister Picnic - New
York/Toronto/Reykjavik/Idaho/Melbourne/etc." in the next couple
months b/c, y'know, it's the season (even the s. hemisphere - fall
picnics are quite nice.)

I had to get a new passport. I think I look even more drunk in this
photo. plus, it's in colour. eesh. speaking of drunk, i haven't been
for months (2 months, in fact). i have been being responsible. and
poor. brutal combination. we'll see how long that lasts.

the new Destroyer album is good and includes my subject line and a
lot of Dan Bejar making me want him even more. though not in real
life. i heart the indie-pop stars of my fantasies. and would probably
want to stab them in the eye in real life. or something with knives
anyway. (hahaha - for the more sensitive among you, i would never
stab anyone with anything. but i'm not making any promises.) i
haven't bought the latest b&s eps/singles for the same reasons i
haven't been drinking. i feel so behind. i even felt old for the
first time at a Metric show a couple weeks ago. It Begins... 

In my defense against time, I may totally revert and start asking
guys out on dates via a folded piece of notebook paper that reads "Do
you like me? __ yes __ no. Please check one."

giggling girlishly,
Robyn

answer to my tongue-tied ways...)
