A long line of failures

Whenever you feel down and out, lay the needle down to track 2 side A of Leonard Cohens Death of Ladies Man and be soothed by the soft voice of the man..

"I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
you were famous, your heart was a legend.
You told me again you preferred handsome men
but for me you would make an exception.

And clenching your fist for the ones like us
who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,
you fixed yourself, you said,
"Well never mind, we are ugly but we have the music."

I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best
I can't keep track of each fallen robin
I remeber you well in the Chelsea Hotel
That's all I don't even think of you that often"


Yesterday I went out with a friend who was here visiting, well actually taking a course at the university for His PhD studies. We went bowling and I scored a 151. That is enough to make me happy.
And to top it, earlier that afternoon I went goofing around at the book sale and bought three books. One was a small retrospective of the famous french photographer Robert Doisneau and then another photography book; some sort of anthology of a magazine called "Aperture". Marked down from 550:- to 129:- I just pretty much had to. And then Ibought the book called Motstånd that I've seen or heard something about, but cant't think of what exactly... we'll see what it is.. Glad to have these really nice photo-books though. Some inspiration, waiting for my new camera.

"Diamonds. She'll pretty much have to."
