you're still up, Roadkill? do you ever sleep?

Sleep is for the weak.

I live of

No, really, I'm about to go. I have a biology project not to do, I'm just about to email my teacher and .

*tiptoes in*

It's very quiet in here. Where is everbody?

hi Clare,

Yes, it's quiet all over the place today - I think a lot of people have gone to the big Hootoo bash in London. Otherwise they are just busy HAVING A LIFE?

How are you? Wassup?

az

az,

Huh? Big Hootoo bash? noone ever tells me anything
I'm alright, I've FINISHED my physics coursework. Now I have to tidy my room before my German exchange comes, you wouldn't believe some of the stuff I've been finding

How are you?

Clare

hi Clare,

How an I? You mean besides bieng old and FAT and ugly? Well, not too badly, if not for the fact that I am also totally skint.

(don't mind me - not having my best moment as we speak )

The big Hootoo bash has been advertised on the front page for ages - the annual bash in London.

Me? Just hanging out this weekend. Trying to finish a book called The Lovely Bones which had been recommended by hootoo pal raindog - so far it is quite wonderful.

Meanwhile, eating lots of popcorn.

And YOU?????

kissitos,
az

I heard something about a HooToo Do, but I assumed it was a private thing.
az - to your post about my Journal, I can't remember a thing of what I wrote, but I suspect it wasn't meant to be the content. I think I just wanted to be creative and pin this idea down in an (in)substantial form, and I no longer do poems. Sorry to waste your time. I'll just go look at what I actually put.

hi Fnord,

What post of mine about your journal? The 9/11 thing? Actually, you can waste my time anytime you like (and stop trying to cut into my act of being the most oversensitive person in the universe, okey dokey?)

You are creative all the time - what are you talking about?

The Hootoo bash has been promoted all over the place for the past month or so - it was today in London. I obviously could not attend as I still have to work out how to pay rent this summer - and feed cats.

Must eat now.

az

I wanted to be permanently creative in a way more than the normal, daily way. Oh, you know what I mean. I've inextricably imprinted my journal with creativity, and that's the way it's gunna be.

I think I had vaguely heard about the party, but I didn't realise it was today. Not sure if anyone I know went. Roadkill's in Wales btw, and won't be on for a while. Jem's off for good now I think .

I know all about frustrated creative urges Fnord, i suffer from them quite a bit. I went to see the Importance of Being Ernest last week, and was left with a very strong desire to be able to speak in those little witty sentences, like everyone in the Importance gets to, the same with people in Saki's short stories, they always have such clever things to say about love or the war office, it's really not fair.

Clare,

Well, one very important thing to bear in mind is that neither Oscor Wilde or Saki were 15 when they wrote that stuff. Give yourself time. You'll get there. Well, you'll get *somewhere* anyhow . . .

At least you guys aren't old and fat and ugly!

az

Oscor? Definitely time for bed.

az

az - like I said, old? fat? Remember, there's always a bigger fish. Or, to quote Morgan Freeman in a film I watched but yesterday, "The thing about you people is, you keep looking up". Which, I suppose, is our greatest secret and weakness.

Sleep tight

Well if I had a choice between not being old and fat (not so sure about the ugly - <spotcream&gt, and being able to write like Wilde and Saki, I'd defintitely go for the latter. I'm getting fed up of being young, I feel like I've been 15 for ever, when really it's only 3 months.

Oh well, I'll get somewhere sometime I suppose. *watches clock*




nothing happened yet...

Ageist so and so. I'll bet I could write like Wilde, if I had some amphetamines (bad joke) or a copy of his work to trace (bad joke).
Tuesday is my sixteenth birthday! Yay! Except I can't think of anything I'll be able to do then that I can't now. Except ride a moped.

No but you'll be able to do some things *legally* that you can't yet

Happy birthday for Tuesday anyway. Why is there not a birthday cake smiley? Here's a anyhow. Do you like ?

Okay, who else but me thinks that the late Esplen might have been Hoovooloo? (and no, Noggin, am not seeing 'Hoos' everywhere).

az

az,
Esplen = Hoovooloo? surely not! He (Esplen) used so little punctuation .

The long postings were sort of in his style though. I *suppose* he could have been pretending to think you were a man, but it does seem a bit weird; all that stuff about himself on his page too (before he changed it) could have been Hoo making up details, but I doubt they'd be real if it is him, since he never had anything about himself as Hoovooloo. I also don't see why Hoo would come back as someone else to be nasty to us , if he had something to say, why couldn't he have said it as himself?

I don't think Hoo would leave put punctuation like that, unless as a cunning ploy I suppose. I really don't know.

Definitely not. Don't ask me why not, but definitely not.

Noggin

Aw g'wan, Noggin, please tell us why you're so sure! How about if I guess right, will you say so?

Clare
