this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There was a Stephen King story in (I think) SKELETON CREW about a woman who liked finding short cuts via back roads ("She was mad for a shortcut") when driving that went to some seriously cool Lovecraftian places, but I can't remember the name of it.

Oooh -- I loved that one. Shivery.

Because books.

"The Mist" is still one of my favorite Stephen King stories. Although "1408" is right up there now.

And I know Lorrie Moore is a bit out of favor since yesterday, but I adore most of her stories. "How To Become a Writer" is classic, although it's less story than exercise in form.

"The Lottery," "The Yellow Wallpaper," and "The Open Window" also way up on my hit parade. I like the classics, I guess.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

That reminds me of another favorite: Robert Bloch's "That Hell-Bound Train."

Also love his "Yours truly, Jack the Ripper".

Okay, fine. I'm just going to take out one little office building. Nobody'll miss it!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Daisy, is it okay if she gives you time to move out of range? And select a few buildings/people to spare?
