1 part no other humans around AT ALL

1 part crickets chirping just outside the window

1 part cicadas screaming, "but WE'RE the divas!" at the crickets just outside the window
+
1 part reading about how Pythagorus wasn't only the creator of the math that causes me such grief, but also the music theory rapery that is my bane, and coming to a strange sense of understanding
+
Figuring out how to read chant transcription, and transcribing it into bass clef in what I believe to be a very successful manner
+
Happy-smell clothing, neatly folded and ready to head back to Dawndom
+
Friendly late-night people on the elevator
+
Kind thoughts/ words from friends afar
+
Colors
+
a cat named Shatter
+
a time-travelling rat who peeked out from behind the dryer & told me his name is Princhelton.

he may be lying.
maybe not.

At any rate, he was better company than I'd had in quite some time.

I wonder if my old imaginary friend, Kelly, was chewed up or merely swallowed whole by that sea-monster back in '81. I don't remember watching to that degree, honestly.

transcribing things into bass clef always makes me happy.

here's to the goddess of laundry

I like doing transcriptions into bass simply because I only learned to read it a couple years ago, so it's still something fresh and interesting to me.

As for that goddess, she shall hopefully grace me later this evening...yay! I have money for laundry!

I've never forgotten about your imaginary friend being eaten by the swimming pool beast ya know.. for some reason that sticks in my head. Must have been v traumatic.

I'd say swallowed whole, and it was quick and painless.

YAY! I wondered if anyone besides my closest friends would remember Kelly! LOL

Actually, it wasn't even remotely traumatic. I made the choice to let her get eaten. Kinda like she was a protective shield for me until I was about seven or eight, and then I just didn't need her there anymore...it was a liberating experience, symbolic of personal growth, if you will.

But yeah, even in my letting her get eaten, I don't imagine it was painful for her. I couldn't be THAT cruel!

ahh, that's cool - I always thought it was a bad thing, not a good one.

and erm, if it ever appears in a story I write, I'll give ya credit (and change the names to protect the innocent - even edible imaginary amigos have a right to privacy :) ).. its just something that really resonates with me..

that's incredibly flattering...~8)
