with a demon and an englishman
On 2001-11-06 at 12:40 a.m.... I've just stumbled in from a Tori Amos concert, which was unassailably wonderful. Even whilst wearing lemon-yellow loon pants and being screamed at by women with mullets, she prevails. The chest voice on that woman makes me feel girly. I got Rufus 'phwoar' Wainwright's signature, but then managed to lose the cd booklet within about six seconds. I think I threw it away, and to be honest it's a miracle I manage to get out of bed in the morning without doing myself serious harm. God knows how I got to America. To go home, to not go home. This is what is currently occupying me. I think I'm worried that I haven't changed&grown&learned as much as I'd like to think. But, hm. Oh Diaryland, I don't know. It's plaguing me like this morning's English quiz, wherein I read the required parts of Jazz last week, came to the class all proud and prepared, forgot everything and answered two out of ten questions. Then, I sat there thinking 'I am better than this'. Except, no. I am not. Today, my mum sent me some books, and my dad called. And if home is where the heart is, then I feel close to dead because I'm the kind of person that leaves things. Eventually, though, I'll run out of things to quit and give up on, and end up ghostly and dislocated, even to myself. Please excuse the precedent loss of self-confidence; It's just that I've had that sentence in my head all day, and I really quite like it.
