I admit also that I have stated that anyone with my number is to feel free to call at such a time. Welcome to, in fact. What I do not understand is why it seems the only time that Bill will call me. What is about four in the morning that takes away his nervous fear? *rubs eyes* Captive audience? I keep the phone by my bed at night expressly for those people who call me late at night. I don&#8217;t mind. Jacques calls regularly at two, after all, but four? I suppose I&#8217;ll ask him when he&#8217;s over later. My humour claims it&#8217;s because I can&#8217;t gather enough brain to be intelligent, but I imagine that would only backfire. *yawns* If someone is upset with me, even a little, they should not under any circumstances call me when my self-editor is turned off. I barely have much of one to start with. *yawns more* His message this morning says that he&#8217;s to be coming over today with my things. A proper bed! Hoorah! *chuckles* <\/p>\n<p>Going through the photographs of the past few months have let me in some astonishing emotives. There&#8217;s some on the rolls stretching back as far as my night hosting at Placebo Sofa Cinema. I came across those and I smile, happy, then I stop walking. So many people? Was it really so many people? A dead town like Vancouver and I filled a movie theatre? Tier upon tier of people all laughing. I put them away in my pocket as I get onto the train, trying to remember the names of everyone who showed. I can&#8217;t. There were too many. I&#8217;m feeling suddenly less clever. At home I take them out again, keep going through them. There&#8217;s a few of myself that look odd. I couldn&#8217;t place it, but then I know. I find the roomate&#8217;s bathroom scale to weigh myself and recieve another slight shock, because, yes, I suppose thirty pounds less will show up in the mirror. No wonder I needed the corset re-laced. Six months to change the world, darlings, six months to change myself. I never even noticed. <\/p>\n<p>When the scanner stops being bitchy, I&#8217;ll post them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I admit, that yes, four in the morning is a good time to get ahold of me.
