Lithium Picnic, my desktop.

Escape is four. Walls, edges, connect three and the angles are wrong. Four is compatible with fire. Two places to hold you, for you to hold me. Four. Boundaries make up all the most beautiful things hemming in this screen. // When they speak to you in whispers. It feels so right, but you're not in the story. Voice falls quiet from fear. // Hush now, cradles rock, it's picking a fight. I can't change this. The farther in I see, the less I understand about how I'm pulling. Noticing little things. This is a refuge. I'm not wrong, I'm on this list. I recognize the objects that feel the same from partner to partner. This is where we come to write, all of us, music or language or pieces of memory. Eighteen inches from the computer, everything we need. All our pills. All our letters encased in plastic chunks of communication. We're so human. It hurts me when I'm lucid. Damn lucky I'm not.


Tom Baker out-takes from recording a voiceover for a commercial. Many thank-you's Warren.

I made Ryan sit through it. At first he was sort of doubtful, but by the end of it, he was incapacitated. I love Tom Baker. Have I told you about my scheme to be related to him?

[hentooth.livejournal.com]

no, but no good can come of a "scheme":)

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

She'll be legal age to marry in only five years.

tom baker reads this stuff your know... he is on to your scheme.

and he'll bust it up beyond repair-a-bility

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

I might win because that's not a word, and he apparently cares about that sort of thing.

Amazing that his voice is so distinctive despite the fact that he was doing Doctor Who in 1976?!

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

There's something perfect about his voice, I think. It captures everything in a beautiful way. it's like the voice that I wish all those stupid WATCH OUR HEAVY DRAMA MOVIE WITH EXPLOSIONS voices would emulate.

i'm a silly man...:)

still, i thought you might be curious...Edward's apple

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

You're a silly man speaking gifts to a girl who appreciates sily. Not so bad a place ot be. Edward looks sad regarding his apple, as if he knows he's going to have to turn around to something he knows wil lbe unpleasant.

I'm glad you liked your present.

[uminthecoil.livejournal.com]

Heh...yep, Edward’s got his troubles alright...drockleberries are in season.

that was actually the only authentic birthday present I received this year...
Also really enjoying those ‘dead cities, red seas and lost ghosts’...especially that last song...had it on a constant loop throughout most of the afternoon...couldn’t bring myself to cut it off until the page was finished...heh...an example of a pleasant OCD maybe...:)

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

Here's similar music then, a band called M83. I'll send more Explosions In The Sky too.

[uminthecoil.livejournal.com]

those were the very songs I was refering to.

oh...and I couldn't resist the temptation...all that wonderful negative space don'tcha know...:)

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

You're such a perfect gentleman, you give better presents than you recieve.

That the voice of the Time Lord has come to this. I'm not surprised he's on a short fuse!

[porphyre.livejournal.com]

I'm fairly sure this is an older recording. Warren vouches it's certainly him though, they worked together once. Either way, I'm glad it exists. It proves only further how wonderful a man he must be.
