lull

the boy has gone home with his mother.

my lady is leaving for greece this thursday.

the book is almost out the door.

the bastard is exhausted.

the bastard is going to lull for a while.

it's kind of like running out of steam.

there will be an absence of activity for a little while

this happens every time a period of intense activity is followed by a lull.

gonna curl up into a ball now.

wake me when it's over.

where are my goddam pages?

...on the sixth sense

so the bastard got home last night an into bed around 1. such as life this time of year. so after 5 or six pages of 100 bullets, i turned in. around 2:30, i wake up from what felt like a dream and my knee felt out of wack so i bent my leg real quick only to hear a resounding pop and then after the initial shock, the pain kicked in. OW! it felt like something popped it the wrong way as if it had been sat on. i get out of bed to look for the knee brace and it's freezing in the apartment. so in the bastard's surreal half sleep/pained state, i start wondering why it's freezing in my apartment considerring how it's been in the 60's all day in new york (yeah, i don't get it either) and then it hit me. i might have ghosts. yeah it's probably the delirium but it was totally freezing just like one of those scenes from the sixth sense.

FAST FORWARD: i get off at lexington and the verve is on again. apparently my randomizer has a love that dares not speak it's name for richard ashcroft. who cares. it makes for good walking

FAST FORWARD: in the office. things are already starting to go wrong. we don't have copy for this gun. we won't have a road map until tuesday. we need to have the issue to the plant by thursday. the bastard fixes them or learns to deal. i feel so serene. i'm a fucking razor.

...on the bass

now as the bouncer will tell you, as an establishment starts to fail businesswise, they'll let any dumb neanderthal into the place. now the bouncer is, yes, a bouncer and his expertise lies in the club scene. the bastard finds that his logic is sound in most any business arena. take the restaurant for instance. now the bastard hasn't reported on the restaurant's karaoke activities since getting back into the apartment for one reason and one reason only. i can't be bothered. i resigned myself to not getting bothered by the little things anymore. i decided not to get bothered by thing one or thing two either. i want to have inner peace in my life, and it starts with me. so there. sorry, i'll find better material for the faithful.
buuuuuuut, sometimes something breaks up my peace. like when i'm tired and when a bunch of neanderthals get out of a really loud car to check out the menu of the restaurants and the while they decide how they are going to pronouce words like richotta and calamari, their driver parks his car under my window. and the bastard is tired from doing the devil's work last night for the artist. but there he is, thumping bass, windows rolled down and standing outside his car, posing. i used to go to the bouncer's site to remind myself of the kind of idiots i went to high school with but now i get a front row seat. hey can you turn that up? i don't think they can hear you in jersey. rhythm is a dancer indeed...you prick.
