microcosm


good evening, brothers and sisters. i speak to you in a state somewhat jaded. i didn't sleep well last night, but i have managed to busy myself with various little errands throughout the day. i slept in a strange bed last night. not completely strange as in unknown, i have slept in it a number of times before, but strange as in nigh on impossible on which to sleep. there are about 3 mattresses on said bed which i believe is more than faintly ridiculous. 'keep a bed simple and sleep well' is my motto. well, from now on it's my motto about beds. but i had an amazing dream in my last bout of sleep. it was some kind of movie/videogame/real-life thing where you could watch it and be in it at the same time. and it was all real live-action but you could do amazing stuff like in a video game, such as filing away a part of an iron fence and then the sharp part at the end would erode the rest of the fence away, like a fuse burning, and finally it would attack the person at the bottom of the fence. and just before i woke up i saw a huge lycanthrope-like creature which would scare the crap out of anybody. luckily i woke up almost immediately afterwards. don't ask me what it all means.
anyway.... what happens on the reality tv show known as planet earth during this most recent segment?
1/ some people had a narrow escape at a bullfight when a bull managed to leap into the crowd. they killed the bull straight away (no one expected that at a bullfight, i'm sure). anyway somebody got a gash for their troubles. the moral is 'if you're a sadist, get some psychiatric help a.s.a.p.'
2/ some more of bush's old muckers are in court. they were the ones who got caught with their fingers in the rather large tills. you can still go to prison for that stuff. invading countries and killing thousands of innocent people for your own financial and political ends is still ok though, apparently.
3/ transexuals will be allowed two i.d. cards when (i wish i could say if but it looks like 'when') they bring them in, if they are pre-op. what if they don't go through with it in the end? do they have to hand one back? and what about hermaphrodites? or asexual people?

so there's some of it. i'm a bit too tired to think of anything else from the news right now. i've been fixing up my room today, and hopefully, thereby, my life. we shall see how that develops. now i'm going to watch a movie and drink some relaxing herbal tea. there was a time i'd have been out partying but now it's slippers and a warm drink.

be beautiful and honest, my lovely humans. take care of your little bit of the planet.

love

mr w
