this was my msn display name for a while, and i have found most people feel obliged to reply to it, although it is in no way an actual statement that i would ever-well, maybe i would make it, but in any case i am not making it now or to you. is it for a lack of things to say? is it because they think its a kind of joke i'm trying to share with everyone? i dont know, but i dont like to put my real name as my display name (what a metaphor.) because i get so tired of seeing it there, and i think it is very dangerous and sad to get tired of one's own name. it is so plain and irritating, so predictable in its order. also, i hate the kitsch of "claire says claire says claire says" popping up everytime i type something, as if the "says" is needed to save the world from utter confusion, as if no one would believe i was talking otherwise.
i am not a morning person. this has become evident to me since i tried waking up for morning prayer and became totally useless for the rest of the day. not that that's an excuse, but its a fact.
last night i dreamt that me, meg ryan and this other guy (i think i alternated between being meg ryan and being the other guy) went to the zoo, stole a peacock and then tried to ship it to some arab country. we got pretty far too, i mean, we were in this desert climbing over a limestone wall, which was supposedly the border between desert-no-where-place and desert-arab-place and snuck around behind these spikey shrubs to escape being shot by the patrol people, all the while carrying this peacock who was lovely and soft and very well behaved. we got caught when pavarotti, or that guy who played gimli in the lord of the rings (i cant really tell them apart), wearing a kaftan and a turban tricked us into coming into his house and then called the arab guard on us. i always disliked gimli! well, not really but i do now. the sneak!
