Shit is wack. Cold sweating through the night, chugging that lemsip like so many mexican eggs. I'm probably going to have to stop at home tonight, and that's burnin me for forty big ones! (pounds). What the fuck, right?
Has anybody else got a cold? Anybody else illin'? I need my mamma!

At the risk of being pedantic, Kanye, if you were 'illin' in early 80's hip hop speak you'd actually be alright, good, even. Tchoh, you're the kind of idiot who'd spell zylophone wrong and then carry on as if nothing had happened.

I don't catch colds. Does anyone else not catch colds? I'm expecting to die of a common cold one day when I actually do catch one.

I don't catch cold either. I put it down to regularly taking cod liver oil for the past 16 years. Changed my life that stuff has.

Thanks for your note, sorry for not getting back to you sooner. This blasted illness is draining my will and ability to communicate. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for you recent comments on my recent post on a recent thread re: illness ("Argh! I've got a cold."). Specifically, you identified that I'd misused the phrase illin'. I thought it only polite to expand on this. Louise (who sends her love and thanks you for helping her with her CV) and I often use the phrase illin' in this incorrect way when communicating health complications to each other. For us, the mis-appropriation is humorous. Looking back at my previous post, I can see how readers who aren't as intimately involved in our relationship as we are might think that I've accidentally mis-used the phrase. I just wanted to clear this up, and to assure you and other readers that any garbled golden-age hip hop vernacular on my part was entire deliberate, albeit, poorly contextualised. I thank you for taking the time to communicate your concerns to me, and I will double my efforts to prevent these anomalies from slipping through in the future. Thanks.

it kind of breaks the magic when you sign off with 'Steve'. But I accept your point, even if it is kind of wack.

exciting news though, I saw a man about another tattoo yesterday and he's got the source image and he's going to work something up and then my whole inner arm is going to get done. I know how interested everybody is in what goes on in my life, what I think about this and that, and what kind of choices I make, so I'm just keeping readers up to date.

More news as we get it.
There was a good update from CiH's sister a few days back when she mentioned that she had just finished kneading her breasts or somesuch. I was going to write something along the lines of 'Need any help with that' and then I thought it was a teensy-weensy bit creepy, especially as I don't really know her that well. So instead I've posted about it on here, which still feels a bit wrong, but not quite as bad. Even so, I should probably delete this rather than hit add reply. I'll take a couple of minutes to mull it over.

Back to topic, I had a little cold last week. Just a sore throat for one night and one day, then it kind of petered out, left me with an occasional cough and a slightly snottier than usual nose.
Overall I'm pretty happy with the way it played out.
Anyway, going back off topic for a moment, what's the deal with the different usernames. I'm assuming you're using different computers?
So like, Kanye West = Home desktop PC Jimmy Bignuts = Laptop McDirts = Work PC

For some reason I always assumed that Benway was the younger brother. It's interesting now to think of him as an older sibling. How his younger brother probably looks up to him, and looks to Benway to show him how to live. How Benway is probably fiercely protective of him, offer him advice whenever he needs it and probably goes through life with a constant awareness that he needs to set an admirable example for his younger sibling.

yes, it's like that, only, I don't really have anything to do with him, we don't really get on, and when we are forced into the same place we tend to try and ignore each other. Communication is usually just a series of sarcastic, cutting remarks, as is the way with my family. I don't really know anything about him, other than that he now goes by his middle name, he likes photography and porn stars, and went through many of the same emotional disturbances as I did due to the same high levels of drug taking during the 16 - 25 years.

But all that's probably tempered with the tremendous sense of respect and admiration that he has for you, and the profound level of caring that you have for him, right? And even when you're not talking to each other you're still both aware of an unbreakable bond forged by shared experiences like the time he saw a dead fox in the woods and some bigger boys were ridiculing him for it and you came and made them fuck off, and maybe you had a go at him for being weak but only because you knew it would be bad for him to keep showing his sensitivity? That kind of thing?
I mean, it may seem like you're alienated from each other, but presumably there'll be a big family event like Christmas or a wedding where all the shit comes out and it looks like the old wounds will never heal, until all the crap has been thrown and you realise that all that's left is a filial love and respect that was always there, even though you couldn't see it under all the garbage? Yeah?
