dancing like a beautiful dance whore

Instead of answering all of your questions today, I think I'm going to wait until next week. We'll make a theme of it: PATRIOT week, where I'll divulge shitloads of information that you really have no reason nor right to know. Things from the library, doctor's reports, details of my sex life (don't get your hopes up), student records, amazon wishlist, scars, showering schedule, turn-ons, daily diet, web site habits, political musings, and other oddly personal habits that the government might need to label me a terrorist. That way, Ashcroft can take a break from sticking his nose where it doesn't belong: I've done all the work for him.

Technically, you are all now under gag order not to tell anyone about this week, but since it's all about the hits, feel free to spread the voyeuristic love, or to participate yourself.

Today, I'll leave you with a mix cd I made for Anna.

Here lies a most ridiculous raw youth, indulging himself in the literary graces that he once vowed to eschew. Now he just rocks out.
