Katrina waves at suicide

Greetings,

Suicide is painless, unless you're dumb enough to actually try it--this is a valuable lesson learned from my novel The Mind-Warp Era (even though the pen name is W.C. Leadbeater the vorkling Finny is also a character), but this didn't stop Katrina from threatening it--should've read the book, I guess. My mid-20s fun-loving gurl-friend--friend though lesbian she may be--threatened suicide on the internet over the weekend. She has a blog, & twice threatened to end it. This was, of course, extremely upsetting, so I talked it over with Cathy Upstairs (Cathy Downstairs is now in Pennsylvania). She suggested calling the copz in Memphis, home of Elvis & the ancient Greeks. That oaf Warren overheard the conversation & had to butt in; I told him to sod off & he got all offended, but it really was none of his business. When Katrina finally showed up online again she was pretty pissed about me calling the copz on her, but if she'd have committed suicide it would've been on my conscience.

Sunday morning

Hello, never-ending journal on the edge of time,

Well, for once Trisha the Insect Slayer, a/k/a Bumblebee Girl (she goes bouncy-bouncy), a/k/a the Lady Tron (a descendant of the Fem-Bots)woke up before 9:00 in the morning. 8:30, to be precise. She'd set the alarm clock, but forgot to activate the switch. As soon as we were iut of bed & had taken our meds--21st Cenntury Schizoaffective Man--we ate brecchie--when I was in grad school I had t o deal with numerous Champions of Breakfast, not to mention a Karen Relationship. Fortunately, that's all over now--I found my own true love.

Trish is currently studying for the written part of her driver's test. Back in Aprl, comely Cathy was teaching her, but then Trish had that seizure & wound up in the ICU so she had to wait 6 months to reacquire her learner's permit. She took the test Thursday last week, but missed it by one question. She had the answer but changed it: a trick question: "What is the most important part of your car?" She chose brake while they wanted steering wheel.

Today we eat at Taco Treat, once we're out of Church. Trish likes their Nacho Supreme & then we'll have sketti for supper.

President Bush is President Gas Again

Hoody, hoody, hoo, as Hoppy Harrington would say,

I watched the debates last night, with a keen interest in who wins--I don't think the country can take another 4 years of George W. Bush. President Bush is all for President & he's tap-dancing with the banker, he's a thief, like the big drug companies & the War on Drugz. Those are my 2 main reasons for supporting Kerry. I'm on prescription medicine & I like to sail the darkened seas in a great big submarine.

typewriter torment

So I woke up early & am busy with typewriter torment (awesome fearsome & loathsome disease) while Trish continues to sleep. I'm not really sure what to report, save that I entered a brief depression for a couple weeks/daze, as not only isn't my book selling (though Wee Willy Wimsatt's wife bought one), but people have been selling them used on www.amazon.com, where, if you want to help an insane science fiction author keep his sanity, you can buy The Mind-Warp Era (pen name W.C. Leadbeater), the "true" story of an entire world become psychotic due to WMD. I bet President Bush hopes we're in the Mind-Warp Era; President Gas is President Gas again.

after midnight

Yeah, it's after midnight; it's way after midnight--it's almost 4 hours after midnight. Waking up early, only to torment my typewriter, is perhaps a sign that I went to bed too early last night--8:00, but Honey Muffin Cuddle Girl & I snuggled for about an hour, asssisted by Funny Bear & Georgio Bear. So come 2:00 AM I woke up; can't sleep cuz my bed's on fire. Mostly, for the last hour or so, I've been online, reading email & the news. Should that prove boring, I may return to work on "The Noc-Lar"; I'm thinking of renaming the Queen "Ulatek". We already had a hamster named Taarna & now we have Gloria.

President Gas is all for President

You know, I watched the debates last night, & I mean, here we are with the guy who lost the last election debating whether or not we have long term goals for Iraq--President Gas.really is all for President, & Kerry did well to criticize his bad science. Now it's more clear than ever that we're heading into The Mind-Warp Era, (which is also the title of a super-secret cosmicomic by W.C. Leadbeater which you can buy online at www.iuniverse.com). Though it may be true that nukes are a major threat to peace, justice & niceness, once we have psycho-chemical bombs we're all going to blow our brains, & it's going to be even worse than anything an atomic bong can accomplish by itself.
