Finished Dave Eggers, You Shall Know Our Velocity, and it was life altering. It was amazing, stunning, beautiful. It was fucking grand. I pulled the batteries out of my clock with hands because the clicking of the second hand was driving me crazy. Went to dinner with Steve, had a good meal, good talk, and I got a free ticket to the show he was gonna go buy a ticket for so I gave it to him. I was just standing there and these two kids walk past and they say, "Hey, you want a free ticket to the show?" And I was like, "No, I'm just waiting for a friend." And then, running after them, "Did you say free?" It was sort of funny. I thought so at least.

I talked to Scotty last night late late late at night on the IM and it was good. I thought he had blocked me or was ignoring me or something. And I would have been hurt. But he wasn't. He actually seemed sort of offended that I thought he would do that; he said he really does want to talk in person. That he likes me. I don't know. We talked about a lot of shit, and I was crazy and happy about a lot of shit, and feeling rather poetic since I finished D.E.s book right before, actually in the middle of talking to him. So I was being a little metaphysical, which can only rarely be a good thing. It was nice to talk to him, and I don't think anything really went too badly. I was expecting worse. I was pleasantly surprised.

I skipped class this morning. Slept through it. That DOESN'T happen to me. I never sleep that long.

I've run out of words. I had so much to write last night. So many crazy words floating through my mind at impossible speed, impossible velocity, running stealing crying. But they are all gone. Only a few vapors from the steam engine are still around, and they just confuse me. I don't know.

I decorated my room as well last night. I bought this fashion magazine with pics of JT and Asia Argento in it and I decided I would cut out lots of different pics of mostly kids my age and put them up tastefully on my till last night completely blank white walls. Now I want to continue the pattern around to my two brick walls. I don't know if it will stick to it, but I think I have to try.

Good morning. The sun is shining brightly and that is all that matters. Everything else is incidental.
