Mindstorm

A fearsome & fantastic journey to the heart of the Savage Id.

Name:
Location: Invisible City, North Dakota, United States

Read my book, The Mind-Warp Era. It'll tell you about the real Lead--& his alter-ego, the true Rootboy covered with slime (the Savage Id). Partly a poignant memoir, partly a cosmicomic book, it relays the Id's adventures thru dark dimensions of funereal dread, with Timothy Leary as co-pilot. (The rumors of his death have been greatly exaggerated.)

A horse is a horse...

...of course, of course, unless of course, it's the famous Mr. ED. I've struggled with this problem for the last 8 or 9 years, ever since I came back from the ER & they put a spike into my vein, filled with haldol, the most potent antipsychotic known to man. Of course, having a side-effect would be a Scientologist's dream, but fuck those ignorant clods, anyway.

So last night, Trish gave me a real atomic blowjob. Unfortunately, many of the symptoms of ED lingered, even though I've only had 1/4 shot a week ago. If this persists, I'll have to get a 'script for Viagra, but want to wait until after I've had my heart checked out; Viagra can cause problems there.

Also, Kim did not Kum yesterday. In the past she's (apparently) tried to psych out when Trish is at work, & then deliberately try to show up then. Maybe it was the way that I rejected her a couple weeks ago that has her putting more distance between us. At least I was able to finish another draft of TC in OpenOffice. Changing to a new word-processor can be difficult, but this program conveniently completes words for you.

Some of the romance had to go, as being non-essential to the plot. It entered the story in an earlier draft, when I was thinking of making it into a relativistic-relationship thing, which has actually been done to death. I'm using the romance between the 2 characters & dropping the affair with the husband back home simply as a way to introduce the character's religiousity -- pre-marital sex is a sin; OK, so maybe you can use a condom after all, but it's still a sin.

The story definitely needs the characters pumped up; nobody is solid save for the heroine, & that's because I do my best writing cross-gender, though I'm not sure why.

Trish rode the taxi to work & back for the first time yesterday. The husband wanted to argue that it hadn't gone thru yet; I grabbed the phone & told him Voc Rehab had called me; his wife told him to do it.

We had leftover shepherd's pie for supper last night. Trish wanted to clean in the basement, so I watched The Wall while she worked. I'd just listened to Meddle & A Saucerful of Secrets before supper, on tape. I'm getting sick of all my CDs, so I decided to check out my tapes.

We definitely need to procure more hi-quality speakers for the basement. The center-channel speaker has improved things a lot, but on non-Dolby Digital DVDs, the little side speakers sound terrible. I'm planning on creating a 4-1/2" 2-way satellite, out of a Pioneer full-range, a piezo tweeter, an L-pad, & a 1st-order Butterworth crossover. This will put the peak of the full-range under the low-pass filter, while filtering out the resonance of the piezo. The L-pad is there as, not only does the driver need to be tapered off (piezos are hot), but to lower the impedance, so the crossover will see the tweeter. All we really need to do is have Jeffer Auss measure the cubby-hole dimensions to see if it'll fit, & then order the parts. We can do it for under $100, & on Friday will have another paycheck in the bank.

Today, I hope to continue work on TC. Once I think it's near-perfect, I'll run it thru Critters. I'll have to check my participation ratio. So far, I haven't received one of those "Critters misses you" notes in a long time.

Soon, it will be breakfast of pancakes. Tomorrow, I go to the Perky Pam Layout for turkey dinner. I want to be ready.
