i love my psycho-kitty, i love my boyfriendguyfiancemightaswellcallhimhusband James, i love my job filled with challenges/rewards/times i fear getting hit in the head with a chair. i love me. i love my life.
this probably one of the best things i have ever read:
I say 'perform' advisedly, because he was a great showman, and like all showmen, not above charlatanism and at times downright trickery. Sometimes he used smoke screens to hide his maneuvers from the opposition --I mean literal smoke screens, of course. He had a corps of trained idiots who would rush in at a given signal and eat all the pieces. With defeat staring him in the face--as it often did, because actually he knew nothing of chess but the rules and wasn't too sure of those--he would leap up yelling, 'You cheap bastard! I saw you palm that queen!' and ram a broken teacup into his opponent's face. In 1922 he was rid out of Prague on a rail. The next time I saw Tetrazzini was in the Upper Ubangi. A complete wreck. Peddling unlicensed condoms. That was the year of the rinderpest, when everything died, even the hyenas. -Junky, William S. Burroughs
if you talk to me you can get to know who i am. i might even talk back!
