Judas Priest videos are fun times.
Re: Another Solo Mission
It might seem odd for a 53 year old man (me) to be reading the diary of a 17 year old girl. But the girl is Susan Sontag. It is astonishing how intelligent and ambitious she was a such a young age. You would never guess that it was being written by a 17 year old girl if you didn't know it beforehand. It's embarrassing as hell for me to read it. She realized her greatest ambitions because she knew what she wanted and she went after it claw and fang. Not just embarrassing, motivating, too. That 17 year old liberal school girl made me get over to my laptop and write like a motherfucker today. Today was the most productive day I've had in a long time. If that little girl could do it, then by god so can I.
This is yet another lesson on the importance of keeping diaries. Goddamb, if there's one thing I could give to the rest of the world, it's that. Keep a fucking diary. It almost forces you to get better.
Now it's time to pour the wine.
There's one thing I've gotten right in my 53 year long miserable life so far. And that's solitude. Thorogood's I Drink Alone is my anthem.
What's in your glass?

Had shit to do (and other people's shit to sort) pretty much overnight. Got like 2 hours of sleep before work. Gonna crack me some of the hard stuff in about 2 hours.
Also my guilty pleasure when it comes to reading is John Green.

A light one today. Six pack of cheap beer and a quarter fifth of Hendricks. Unplanned, but went with it, summer is the season of Dionysus.

Gin and club soda is summer in a glass!

Re: Another Solo Mission
I did, just a second ago. Just got home from the bar, was drinking a combo of scotch and soda, and gin and club soda. Utterly smashed, but doing my part, drinking a six pack I had prepared so for when I got home. Hard liquor and club soda are keto friendly, thank God.

He posted a YouTube video where he gives a lesson on Emily Dickinson. I'm too drunk to find it right now, but if you can find it, it is John Green at his teaching best.
Re: Another Solo Mission
Saturday is supposed to be my poetry submission day, but the places I found today were all SHIT. I can't believe people read these things, but obviously they do. Anyway, I already have three submissions out that I'm waiting for answers on, so I can be excused from submitting today.
It's after 8 PM and I'm already drunk. The apartment is nice and clean, the neighbors are quiet, the blank pages have been filled. The only thing I have to do now is enjoy inebriation.

Re: Another Solo Mission
I scarcely have any memory of last night's Skype chat, but I think oettinger asked me if my tits were fake.
Re: Another Solo Mission
All I saw was your hand when I was on. But I was at work so couldn't devote my full attention to it.
The hand was real though.

Ah yes, the feeling of accomplishment, coupled with a sense that all is well, and well is all for all.Hugh wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 9:21 pmSaturday is supposed to be my poetry submission day, but the places I found today were all SHIT.

However fleeting, those moments do occur, and it's good to mark them when they do.
