man . . . i feel embarrassed to admit this, and please don’t tell anyone, and i hope i’m not betraying the ethos of this very website . . . but man . . . my life is really good right now lol

QUOTH HUNTER S. THOMPSON:

I have never seen much point in getting heavy with either stupid people or Jesus freaks, just as long as they don’t bother me. In a world as weird and cruel as this one we have made for ourselves, I figure anybody who can find peace and personal happiness without ripping off somebody else deserves to be left alone. They will not inherit the earth, but then neither will I . . . And I have learned to live, as it were, with the idea that I will never find peace and happiness, either. But as long as I know there’s a pretty good chance I can get my hands on either one of them every once in a while, I do the best I can between high spots.

yeah dude. i am experiencing the beautiful world which is The High Spot

i’m hanging out with people all the dang time. and writing a lot! i wrote a dozen emails today and about as many actual letters and i’m sending those out tomorrow . . . to all my teeny tiny little baby friends!!

i’m going to detroit in a few weeks!! and staying with logan!! and then renting a car and driving to chicago to see hali and mable and jess, and on and on!!

and then today this happened:

i befriended this random canadian girl in toronto who is super cool?? because she kept showing up all over the place for no reason?? and why the hell not?? i held my hand out into the vacuum of space and she took it! god i love it. she’s great. she really is funny too!!

and: my birthday!!!!! is on saturday!!!! i’m having a bonfire don’t you know. if you’re around: come on over. i’m serious! even if i’ve never met you before, just come on over. email me!

dude i can’t wait to wake up in a few hours and talk to my friends again lol

don’t tell anyone that i feel real ok!! it would ruin my mystique, and god knows without that i’ve got next door to nothing going for me. well kinda anyway

i am prepared to deal with the inevitable spin of fortuna’s wheel. i have lived in the other part of it for most of my life. i live in it still, even with this gladness in my heart! but of course things will change and i will feel differently when the time comes. and it will spin again and again and maybe i will end up back here again. i do not fear it! but for now . . . hey baby, this is real cool~

okbye ☆彡
