You should totally do it. And when the person starts to fall, you fall too. When you get up, you say, 'Man, this guy is GOOD.'

How about this?: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA - no. Love you, though."

It would be a 2 day thing, over a weekend. My aunt is totally convinced this guy is legit. If I got the sense that there was the slightest disbelief from people actually dealing with an illness as they touch his mitt, I would have a hard time not expressing disgust. Maybe it could be fun if I wore a bow tie and was stricken with impulses of electrocution/dance, but I doubt it. Stuff like this really bothers me

Just got back from the gym, just ate some Vienetta. About to treat myself to some pork pie and HP sauce. It IS Sunday.

Our new place is in a fantastic location, the proximity of so many Japanese restaurants and markets being a prime contributor. Downside is that it's way too easy to drink a shitload of top notch sake, which is what we did last night after a buddy and I spent 4 hours building a Gordian bastard of a garden shed. I'm hungover as hell and my shed is crooked, but it's another beautiful day in LA.

A little detail from my friend Naila's day who just moved to NYC from Birmingham, UK.

"Sitting in my room, smoking a rolled up cigarette and staring outside my open window into the street. A small woman walks up to a space between two cars, kneels down and takes a piss. She then got up without wiping herself, and casually walks off. Okay."

(East lower 6th/Ave A)

I drove my old boss's daughter to Bryn Mawr college today with all her stuff, in exchange for some cellulose insulation for my house. I left my van at the old job all day as I moved her in the work van. When I returned this evening, I found a large turd shaped lump on the roof of my minivan. Upon further inspection it turned out to be A PULPY MASS OF SMOOSHED FROGS AND MICE. Either someone is pissed, thinks they're funny, or a goose or something barfed on my fucking car. It stinks!!!

Turned-on The Twilight Zone for the first time in a year; it's same episode as last time.

It's like something out of The Twilight Zone.

So this band needs help with a show in Saint Louis.

This band and I have common friends.

Common friends suggest this band get in touch with me to help, because I am Saint Louis.

I like this band.

I try to help.

I am unable to actually help.

I feel like a powerless loser ding-dong (again) for being unable to actually help (again).

I don't like feeling like this.

I probably can't actually help any bands get shows in Saint Louis.
My mind, it's a terrible diskette.

It's like an owl pellet, except that it hasn't been digested at all. Must have overdone it I guess.

Played cricket yesterday. It was bastard hot. Even so, was feeling good whilst batting, defending well, had hit a couple of boundaries off looser balls, until I got bowled by a short pitched ball that I went to hoik but which shot along the ground.

Then kept wicket for the first time in 5 years. Again, was really enjoying it, being right there for every ball, until my mate Matt bowled a beautifully-flighted off break that drew the batsman forward, beat him through the gate and as a result, meant that I only picked it up again a milisecond before it slammed into my eyebrow. I went to retrieve the ball, to make sure they didn't sneak a run, but 1st slip told me stop and then I spotted the blood splashing all down my shirt and pads.

Two hours in A& E, I have four stitches, concussion and the shittest facial bandage you have ever seen. Weirdly, I just feel massively relieved that a) it hit me where it did, rather than eyes, nose or mouth and b) we still have the NHS, so I got sorted out for free after stupidly hurting myself playing a child's game.

Got back to the pub in time to be bought many sympathy pints. On days like these, summer in the UK ain't bad.
