coming up for air

the girl with the annoying laugh is here.
trying to have a quiet evening at home... winding down before bed...
and then here she comes.
colin was in bed.. he woke up... peeped out from behind his door..
"oh, god!" he said.
"yeah," i said.
i shut my door.
she's perfectly nice; don't get me wrong.
i'm just a little tired right now.

i crashed a class on film with mark today. i've taken it before, but i just really love(d) the material.
today was a bunch of old george melies films.
think: the smashing pumpkins video for "tonight, tonight" - yeah - that whole thing was based on a melies film sci-fi adventure.
(the directors of that video must have a thing for old films.... they did a chili peppers video - can't remember the song - and used a bunch of images from an old robert wiene film, the cabinet of dr. caligari)
anyways, the first half of the class is lecture, so i just read some harry potter while dr. monotone-i'm-from-the-midwest-it's-quite-clear-from-my-voice magden talked for about an hour.

.

talked to my mother tonight.
she asked me if i was dating someone.
in fact, i think that was the first thing she asked.
no "have you been eating right?" no "have you been getting enough sleep?" ...........
just one big "so how's the whole dating thing going?"
she's pleased to hear about clay, but i have to warn her that it's only just begun... not to jump the gun and the whatnot.

.

.

if this keeps on the way it has been keepin on, i'll just have to stop breathing.
