Breaking the signal so it's totally unreadable

I spent most of today with someone very dear to me whom I had not seen in almost seven months. This is a fairly ridiculous lapse of time; and I will see him on Rosh Hashanah, but I'm not sure friendships should be scheduled around the ritual calendar.*

I am now the proud possessor of a slender, only slightly scribbled-in paperback of Anthony Burgess' Oedipus Rex. I discovered it this afternoon in The Book Rack. Just its existence brightened my day.

It is not useful to mention Eraserhead to me in a discussion of David Lynch's films, because all that happens is "Too Drunk to Fuck" gets stuck in my head for hours.

*Actually, that's not any weirder than friends whom one only sees at cons. But I'm not sure it's the designated point of the High Holidays.

Hehe, because you ball like the baby in Eraserhead... talk about disturbing imagery.

Have you heard the Nouvelle Vague cover of that song?

I have indeed. It's been alternating with the original on my internal soundtrack . . .
