Magus Saga Continues, Etc

Well, the end of the month has arrived, but despite my resolution, I'm still 168 pages shy of completing The Magus.

I have been contemplating suicide, but it really wouldn't suit my style and besides, I want to find out if the ending is really as ambiguous and unsatisfying as everyone says.

The DVD of A Zed & Two Noughts I was coveting here has gone, I discovered today. However in its place was one of PG's preceding feature, The Draughtsman's Contract (pictured, below) - also with director's commentary! Go the digital revolution etc. Feeling in need of a compelling reason to live some retail therapy, and wary of being gazumped again, I bought it.

Yay, DVD of The Draughtsman's Contract with director's commentary.

What else? I happened to pass pipe-smoking Bolte Bridge participant Operative Arachni on Barkly Street this morning. I smiled at her, but I don't think she recognised me.

Here is a picture of someone else's toaster (my own is too retiring for photos):

Someone elses toaster, hey? You been breakfasting at someone elses house? ; )

Jo, I specifically told you not to refer to my secret double life which I never blog about, on account of it being so incredibly interesting and sex-filled that I'd max out my bandwidth. Curse you and your compulsive gossipery, shakes fist etc

[Cheshire Cat]

Fingers crossed Teigan, I might be able to photograph someone elses toaster by Thursday morning... Wait, I feel like I should explain this story... but I don't want to.

[Teigan]

Wooooo. Fingers crossed.

Actually, the closest thing I have to a sex life at the moment consists of being woken up at all hours of the night - and day - by the sounds of the unbelievably noisy and amorously prolific slattern who lives directly across from me (audio coming soon) and fending off the advances of skanky and/or interestingly-gendered streetwalkers whilst passing through my neighbourhood's infamous tolerance zones. Oh, and stalking-- er, reading Desci.

So I eagerly anticipate your pictures.

[jojo]

Or so you'd like the masses to believe... ; )

[Teigan]

Hush, now.

Not in front of the masses.
