i think i totally figured it out.

stuart sleeps in my hair. he must curl up on my pillow and sleep on my hair. or in my hair. that's how he manages to smell so good.

but...there is one problem with this theory...as i recently explained to a new friend, stuart is 5 feet tall. or, if he isn't 5 feet tall, he's at least 4 foot 6 inches. at the shortest. if he weren't a pimp who wore a fur coat all the time i'd have to shop for him in the boys' section of k-mart. you'd think that's big enough for me to notice that he is in my hair when i am sleeping. you'd think it would nudge me awake...even once. but that's yet to happen.

maybe he's taking showers and using my shampoo and conditioner?

JESUS FUCK, I THINK MY THEORY HAS FALLEN APART.

Ironbiblebelt [11:06 PM]: man, i wished i lived in new york in the 30's.

Tales of brave [11:06 PM]: why?

Ironbiblebelt [11:07 PM]: it'd be really neat.

Tales of brave [11:08 PM]: OK!

Ironbiblebelt [11:08 PM]: "OK!" - was funny.

Ironbiblebelt [11:09 PM]: i mean, food lines, heroin epidemics, unemployment. what else could i want from life?

Tales of brave [11:09 PM]: i'm stumped

Ironbiblebelt [11:09 PM]: no, i think it was a really interesting time period. despite everyone's bitching about it being awful. i mean - speakeasies? how much cooler can you get? you can't.

Tales of brave [11:10 PM]: have you ever seen high art?

Ironbiblebelt [11:10 PM]: nope.

Tales of brave [11:10 PM]: oh, nevermind

Ironbiblebelt [11:10 PM]: lol. "bUt i Do hAve a BilLiE hOliDay sHiRt!"

Tales of brave [11:11 PM]: ?

Tales of brave [11:11 PM]: you should see high art

Tales of brave [11:11 PM]: it was totally in line with our conversation

Tales of brave [11:11 PM]: you asked

Ironbiblebelt [11:11 PM]: what is it about?

Tales of brave [11:12 PM]: "speakeasies? how much cooler can you get? you can't."

and since you proclaim this infinite knowledge of indie film, i was going to reference a scene in High Art.

Tales of brave [11:12 PM]: because i think it's cooler than speakeasies.

Tales of brave [11:13 PM]: in the scene, the protagonist and her lover are in a country house

Tales of brave [11:13 PM]: and they are laying in bed in the morning

Ironbiblebelt [11:13 PM]: same time period?

Tales of brave [11:13 PM]: and they are just kind of staring at each other and cooing and you can see it in their eyes, they are happy.

no, it's contemporary

Tales of brave [11:13 PM]: and it's beautiful trees outside

Tales of brave [11:14 PM]: and it's cool white sheets inside

Tales of brave [11:14 PM]: and it's your lover's skin soft and beautiful and waiting for a shower

Tales of brave [11:14 PM]: and i would take that over a speakeasy anyday.
