springtime in new york
this picture was taken last week during the freak snow storm. with sleet and snow stinging my eyes i took this photo a few blocks from the empire state building. there it is in the middle, barely a shadow. you can't really see the snow either. and it looks like it's sunny. trust me it really was snowing hard.great suggestion on ways to have fucked up dreams
go on a really long, never ending car trip with family
deprive yourself of sleep for a few weeks
watch david cronenberg movies
try and get into william burroughs' head
good luck...and pleasent screams!

Ha ha!! What is with the Cronenberg movies-are we INSANE! At least you didn't have the dream where everyone had bugs heads.
Seeing Naked Lunch though has spurned interest in trying to read it again. I'll try to wrap my mind around the concept of trying to read it.
The picture looks like it's a very nice spring day-it's very sweet.
i know, i'm not a huge cronenberg fan, but his stuff works on the mind. it took a couple of years to read lunch, but it's not the sort of thing where you really have to follow a narrative.
i dunno about the pic, i'm too good at adjusting photos now. i should show the original. or a clear day photo where you can totally see the emipre state bldg.
the world is waiting for your movie reviews! and don't forget to mention the brain tissue.
I took the train from Auckland to Dunedin once. It takes three days. All I took to read was Naked Lunch. What a nightmare. It's the kind of book that needs to be read in the same way it was written - bite-size chunks at random.
And, yes, the world is waiting for film reviews. Christopher Lee, virgin sacrifices, and brain tissue - sounds like you guys have been having a Hammer Horror frenzy.
Is it still snowing in New York,

[Melvin -- you are oh so quiet -- are you alright like?]
Hey ya Lilly-Melvin is um how do you say, oh so tired and it's all catching up to him and making him depressed. We need to stop watching movies till all hours because our little man rises with the sun. (I don't understand where he gets this because we both are late sleepers. Must have skipped a generation)
Oh I didn't realise -- sorry. I'll let Melvin post at his own pace and stop pestering him :-) I just worry you know....
i'll be back soon. big news, some changes, and of course PG's stuff is in the mix.
I look forward to that, Melvin -- hope you guys are coping ok....you know.....
Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Melvin :-D
The fan club should be up and running any time soon ;-P
Thank you for being my first ever wise A#@ to comment on my blog. I may not have continued if it weren't for you. Like so many things. xoxo
*BeeP* *BeeP* -- a sign of life! Hiya PG :-D
We should talk amongst our selves over here. Poor Melvin has no time for us.
Since he wrote this he has had 2 jobs.
Wow! That's mental -- I know what it's like when you have no time for Blogging fun -- but TWO jobs....oh dear. Hope he's ok! Send him my best regards, and meanwhile you and I will keep this blog going :-D
Oh wait, now he is on to his 3rd place. It's beginning to be a little freaky. I'm the supportive wife and all. A friend told him the other day, when you start jumping around from job to job, you need to have your own business. It's all coming down to that. We are starting to plan.
Best of luck to you guys :-D
