Blast of Silence

Guess what Planet Earth!?  I got a new job copying the entire file archive of an insurance company!!  Here ends my deadbeat holiday.  I’m back to waking up early, wearing shirts with collars/sleeves, and eating Honey Nut Cheerios for dinner at 1:30 in the morning.

I’m totally the life of my new office.  Every morning when I flounce in past the rows of cubicles, it’s just a domino effect of secretaries sliding their glasses down their noses to check me out better.  I promise.

I’ve started rereading Pat Barker’s Regeneration about the Craiglockhart Hospital were some of the greatest minds in Britain crossed paths against the backdrop of Great War.  I’ve also begun The Picture of Dorian Gray which is by a gay person. 

Dorian Gray was influenced by Against Nature and even came up in Wilde’s Sodomy trials.  Wilde went to Reading Gaol.  Huysmans became a Benedictine monk and had his eyes sewn shut.
