Oh, by the way. Trin has been asking me over and over to ask YOU, if -- if we go back to Maine to get our financials together, because we wouldn't have to pay the disgusting amount of rent[and John would get an entire attic loft for his rituals, which is a BIG bonus] -- you'd like to either come up and see us[she says for Halloween: this excites her a lot], or sometime before it gets TOO cold, or have us come see you[stayin gin a motel, of course]. We'd love that... and God, it'd be great.
[Have you played the Constantine PS2 game, btw? We beat it in two days, but he walked around Mr. Uber-Ego-Man for a week after that. Even Dem noticed the change in his walk, and his inflections: outside the casino, where he turned my $5 into forty-plus, bought his cigarettes for the week and bought "Chas" a Zippo and himself the silver flask he'd been wanting, C/D stopped and stared. I think that's when he finally felt John there, as it were. Anyway, the game is FAR more accurate to the... self-image? Something. The incantations and just the delivery. And it also had a couple dialogue gems: One being Balthazar saying "What happened to 'turn the other cheek?' And 'John' replies with something I laughed myself into a hernia about, as I'd said it myself that week: "You've got the wrong J.C."
And then Gabriel, at the end: "Once again, John, you leave me speechless." The reply? "Then why do I still hear you?"
Ahaha.
I'd be happy to mail it to you if you want to borrow it... and that's a LOT of trust. *laughs.* I'd like to catch you on AIM tonight, if I can: more personal stuff to say, and all that good stuff. Thank the Merv for last night, btw: that... cinched my being back. I'll keep ALL my promises, you have no doubt.
But since now I can't tell who's writing this comment, I'll leave it here. *goes back to drooling over relics and listening to John's eclectic 137-song playlist and his Dave Brubeck Quartet CD.*]
