okay here's your update
on my lousy ass (make that sore ass)
summer vacation
montezuma's revenge has now been dubbed by my doctor as food poisoning
anyway
La C now has it too
so either we ate or drank the same thing
or she has the worst case of sympathy pains ive ever seen
weve put off going to ptown till thursday
to give us time to remain on the
karen carpenter cleanse
(sorry bad joke)
anyway
while im here
can i just say how officially bummed out
i am that the iranian conjoined twin sisters, Laleh and Ladan,
died
during the separation surgery
you know i didnt even realize it
but i was really rooting for them
i guess it was the courage it took for them to wake up one morning
and say out loud that they would rather risk their own life
and the life of their sister
then go on living like this
and although they died
in some way i think they died heroes
because they risked it all to be free and independant
which seems to be rather poignant in today's world
doesn't it
i imagine the two of them are quite free
now
flying solo
off in the cosmos
anyway
its sad
but its
also
inspirational
funny how you can latch on to something like that and find so much symbolism
sigh
well obviously i have nothing to complain about
when you put things in this kind of perspective
so i shall shut the fuck up
hopefully my summer fun
will start soon
ill keep you posted
