Nothing brings out the petty bitch in me like seeing a character playlist with songs that have absolutely nothing to do with the character.

It’s been quite a bit

since I’ve liked something as much

as I like trigun

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

It's been quite a bit since I've liked something as much as I like trigun

It's nice! Well nice until I realize no one in my family cares about it but whatever

I'll sit here vibrating in a ball mumbling about vash for a while

"The Sorrows of Gin" (The Stories of John Cheever)

Ok. We are getting to a point where I take a break from these blog posts due to the fact that the book is in my bag and I need to go out a couple more times before it ends up next to my nightstand. I was thinking of posting other books I'm reading like Tale of the Genji and the Bible (YCT translation) but I think I'll hold off on those. First, Tale of the Genji is a book that I put next to my bed as something to read when I get to it in the pile of graphic novels. I didn't mind the book but it's a slow read and over 1000 pages, so I didn't want to spend over a year reading the thing when there are books waiting on my bookshelf. So I took it off the regular reading rotation and put it in the fast reading rotation of graphic novels (as well as the Bible and the Legend of the Jews). And everyone does the Bible. But maybe when I get through Proverbs and start reading the Book of Job I'll have more to say.

Or maybe I should just stick to Cheever. And then when I'm done with Cheever, go to Les Miserables as I planned. (of course, if I get sick of Les Miserables a third of the way through like in high school, that will make for a weird blog).

Where were we? Oh yeah, drunk writers and their drunk sad characters.

Amy Lawton is a child who gets left alone with the melancholy cook (John Cheever characters are the kind of rich people who can afford to have live-in servants like cooks and still think themselves middle class) who tells her about her alcoholic sister. The cook not only encourages Amy to pour the gin down the sink but also to pay attention whenever there is drinking around her.

Also the cook is a drunk herself and five pages in, she's being shuffled away from the family stinking of the same gin.

The rest of the story is Amy observing her parents and their friends. This is one of the stories where Cheever started recycling names like the Farquarsons or Mrs. Heinlein, but he doesn't do much with the names except use them. The Farquarsons hold parties. Mrs. Heinlein is a babysitter, a very nosy babysitter who asks so many questions that even Amy notices that she's being intrusive.

Also Amy gets her fired by pouring out the gin. Heinlein takes umbrage at being accused of drinking the family alcohol and that's an ugly scene that then leads to Amy trying to run off to New York. But as far as Amy's parents are concerned, there really is no escape.

Growing up in the suburbs sucks. Even when your parents are popular enough to have friends and parties. Especially if your parents are drunks.

Earlier I asked myself 'what should I wear tonight?' as if I wasn't going to wear what I and every other self-disrespecting emo piece of shit was wearing in 2003. Black skinny jeans, long-sleeve shirt under t-shirt. If only I had a pair of chucks. #me #selfie #beard #emotrash #sadbastard #garbageperson

Q & A Q: "What kind of music do you make?" A: "Sad, miserable bitch music." But don't worry. It gets heavier. Check out the LV for the title track on the front page of the enola reven website if you haven't already, and please share it with friends or in your favorite music forums. Only 2 more songs final versions to go. I'm finally satisfied with them. Waiting on a collaborator to send a recording. Up next: The full PV for Depression! #himitsu #enolareven #sadbastard #sadmusic #shoegaze #indie #rock #goth #soloartist #lgbt #visualkei #artist #newmusic #noize #electronic #experimental #avantgarde (at Guam) https://www.instagram.com/p/BudRPqdFJJ7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1njhkfc83g626
