Did you mean to type God for Creator?
Yup. I got no brains today.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I only had a brain...

Teppy, I think you'd like Justine better now. It's all sex and mysteries and cabals and such.
I can certainly imagine proving that God exists and is a right bastard
That's Norman Mailer's famous quote in The Naked and the Dead. "If there is a God, he's a son of a bitch."

Well, I think so, but I think Durrell is pretty readable. I love stuff set in Colonial Northern Africa.
Of course, Durrell turned out to be supremely fucked up (in the Anne Sexton manner) but I don't hold that against his fiction.

In some people, it's sort of a creative asset.

Between Justine and The Sheltering Sky, I concluded that Northern Africa is full of really fucked-up people.

That's the good part. It's good for the fiction. Of course, we're speaking mostly of the ex-pats of the 30s-50s. Not the locals who probably weren't particularly fucked up.

Mostly lurking...
Thanks beth, that's a little encouraging.
Jen, yeah, I'm feeling some better, but not 100%...hence being back home now. Yesterday went pretty well, so I thought maybe I was in the clear, but I guess not.

Oppression fucks you up. Just not in sexy glamorous ways.
