4 days off in the dead of winter

(or thoughts I have rolling around in my head)

1. There should be a heavy metal song with the line "God is a kid with an ant farm, lady" (as per Keanu Reeves in 'Constantine') repeated in the breaks between power chords, maybe done by System of a Down?

2. Hot coffee drunk from a sherry glass is not as satisfying as one might surmise.

3. Skip bathing three days and you get into a different head space.

4. The problem with being creative is you start to view the world as an art piece, wanting to enhance or alter each experience until eventually, the universe simply becomes a reflection of you.

5. My father called yesterday and left a message whereby he sang "Jesus" over and over again, in a negro spiritual kind of way.

6. After reading the first few pages of David Foster Wallace's 'Infinite Jest', I literally thought, "holy sh*t!", then re-read the foreword to confirm this was exactly what Wally Eggers had said I would say. F*ck.
