Oh not because happiness exists,
that too-hasty profit snatched from approaching loss.
+
But because truly being here is so much; because everything here
apprently needs us, this fleeting world, which in some strange way
keeps calling to us. Us, the most fleeting of all.
+
...Ah, but what can we take along
into that other realm? Not the art of looking,
which is learned so slowly, and nothing that happened here. Nothing.
The sufferings, then. And, above all, the heaviness,
and the long experience of love, --just what is wholly
unsayable.
- from The Ninth Duino Elegy,
Rainer Maria Rilke,
translated by Stephen Mitchell

faithfulness !!
That's right, two exclamation marks.
Xanga, scrolling through my subscriptions blog I've counted at least 5 that keeps urging people to remain faithful to you. There is a problem right there - why do they need to be convinced ? Clearly you are not fulfilling certain bloggers' desires and needs, otherwise they wouldn't go committing adultery with other blagging-sites (such as Wordpress.com).
Anyways, I'm here to post a new hater blog on you (even though my own tingtiing I'm still very fond of), and to give those weird visitors who still leave me lots of footprints even though I haven't updated anything in centuries something to laugh about.
Tootles !

fun things to do on the bus
> Catch a stranger's eye and hold it for longer than usual.
See if:
(a) they smile.
(b) you smile.
(c) someone snarls.
(d) you fall in love.
(e) the world ends in a burning symphony of brimstones and fire.
