Diving head first into excitement


Lately I've been diving head first into excitement. Just lappin' it up for tomorrow may never die. Sometimes I get so excited I say things that don't belong in human's ears--words that haven't even been invented yet. Like solarcosmiccandyfartgun and telefonuck, for when you talk too much to a robot.

People have been reprimanding me for calling ladies "toots-mobile" or honking at kids and saying the days of the week backwards and so on. They should be flattered. I'm just trying to believe in joy.

I've been getting really natural at noticing things. There's a lot to learn from noticing. The other day my friend told me he wanted to live in the sewer. I told him that wasn't true. I told him it would smell too much stink grenade. But just so I didn't come across as a mind trap I went down to check it out for myself. I found a man who looked like a pencil with a raisin head. His clothes were rag sponge. His job was to scrub magic marker off a magic sign. I noticed how hard he worked and how he didn't believe in smiles or vanilla sweets. I asked him if he ever felt like his life was harder off than mine. He said sometimes it was, but other times, it wasn't so bad, like when he got a good look at a nice toots-mobile. I still think about that old pencil neck. He might be dead now.

I rode a train that day. I noticed how some people can't get enough hair, and other's have too much. There was one man next to me who had too much. His face was like an evolution frog with legs and bristle mouth. His eye browsers were tree parts and he smelled like a barber's forest. Our stomach's were almost touching cause the silver bullet was full of traffic. He wore a glove on his right hand. It was clear, but the brown stuff in it was not. I didn't ask him about it. I had felt enough sympo-empathetical for one day.

Tonight I got off from a random jamboree at 4am, which is earlier than usual. As I rode home in a limo time machine I thought about everything that's ever happened in the world, and looked at the moon hang between the trees. When I squinted the days ran together and the future passed by, sleepy like the wind. I pretended to be in love and asked the driver to play something classical. She scrolled the knob, stopping at every point, asking, "this?" "this?" "this?" then she found it and it found me and we embraced on the skyway bridge, before slipping into the tunnel of rain.

It felt good to be such a hot shot of miracles. Sometimes when I tell strays about my life they don't believe me.

Current Life Summary

Sometimes my dear people will write me or leave me conspicuous voice messages asking questions about my life or what i'm wearing. Sometimes these brain wobblers ask how it is to be in Sarasota. I rarely return these questions because I am too busy being excellent, and often can't find the time to waste on other's bullshit. But, because my parents think i might be dead and my brother wants to know how much longer he'll have to be feeding my cat goldfish i will give you an update. Instead of writing anything original i'll just copy and paste a letter I wrote to one of my real friends. My little brother, Brian. He may be offended that i would repost something that was private between us, but i don't have time to write something new, or time for his feelings. Besides, he is dead to me.

Dear Brian,
My phone is gone. it rolled away in a strange car, or fell into a gutter hole. Maybe it just splashed on the sidewalk and a mormon bear carried it off to jewville. I'm not sure. All i know is i went to buy a charger for my second rate phone today so I could talk to my priest and a scraggly bat sold me one for ten dollars in a store that smelled like a porn closet. I made him test it, cause i was clever and sheen. I paid the cardinal fool and drank a meatball sub on my way home.

At my home where i'm resting between actions and cuts i plugged in my new battery juicer. It doesn't work. It doesn't charge. It just turns your phone on. That scraggly bat was a rat dealer. A man with confusers fingers.

After i talked to you on the phone i got the flu. I woke up in the morning and wished I had been born an ice cube, and could melt into some lemonade or on a car hood. The thing about working a 9-5er is, you can't take the day off just because your brain is teasing witch diseases and asking for a smack house. I was drinking dayquill and korean blood mixers. I put white chalk homeopathic magic under my tongue and prayed in mathematics. This morning i was a little better, but i still missed my phone, and wanted a new one. Something with two cameras or a cross bow.

When I get back to Las Vegas i'll be ready to smear my face in the sand pits along the moat village. I'll hug and jangle everybody until their insides feel hairy and peculiar. I'll put my mouth on peoples mouths and celebrate over pizza and alcoholic water drinks. It's good that you're fit and shading--that you're a muslim christian. I'm glad you're really really good and expect you to be finer still when i come back west. I imagine we'll all have mustaches when the days turn around again. Keep on your way. Climbing the harder hills. I'll be back by October.

Love and madness,
J.T.

Might not help you understand anything at all really, but it should. you know it's hard to explain your life when it looks like this:
