So the downside of being employed part-time has reared its ugly (and snickering) head. There's not much to do. Except watch TV. And blog. It's pretty relaxing, I guess. Does free up quite a bit of time for music and reading. Also, I've been working on a short story, or novel, or what have you. It features a quiet limo driver named Dylan. I hope it doesn't turn out like a second-rate Murakami novel. That's all I have been reading as of late. Although I did pick up a book by Proust after watching Little Miss Sunshine. So maybe that will offset the mild crush I have on Haruki Murakami's writing style, as well as the man himself. I'm not holding out much hope. Either way, it's still a great way to learn how to write: ripping off other authors and adding a smidgen or two of your own stuff. Voila, I'm avant garde!
Dig that trippy music on the Murakami site.

i'm definantly interested in your novella for le merde! Entries are formally due on Friday, but will be accepted later than that.
When do you think it will be finished?
love & pocky.
Here's the thing: I was writing the "novella" in a notebook, which I am unable to find. Damn and blast. If I find it sometime tomorrow (I'm running out of places to look), I would say I could have it emailed to you by Saturday-ish. Also, anything else you might need for Le Merde just email me. sunbeamsandbunnies@yahoo.com
