\"Harry's

Harry’s Feet<\/p><\/div>\n

I am definitely having trouble with Harry. I knew from the get go I had trouble with his feet. The toenails are really poorly painted or drawn, and the bottoms of the feet are HAIRY. What else to expect from a Wild Thing, I know… But as I passed the bedroom I saw the above image and felt a slight chill, thinking it looked like a small infant had somehow landed in my bed.<\/p>\n

There have been three burglaries in this building over the past four or five months. I am not losing sleep over it but once in a while I hear a strange noise that makes it through my noise-canceling headphones. I usually do not figure out what it is, the noise. But once in a while I imagine that word is out that I wear noise canceling headphones, and thugs and ninja thieves have worked out a choreography allowing them to slip in and out unknown to me, planting evidence or incriminating information to have me framed, or blackmailed… like I have anything worth resorting to blackmail over.<\/p>\n

But for a moment I thought these fictional intruders had planted a dead infant in my bed.<\/p>\n

But I think it’s more about Harry. I just don’t like the thing. It makes me ill at ease.<\/p>\n

Second night of no booze. Hooray, I guess. I made such glorious use of my sobriety: I began teh tedious process destroying my Soundcloud account, at least so much that I don’t have to pay for it, and moving everything either here or to another site. I hadn’t looked at the TOS in a long time but your account storage is limited by length of time. Free accounts can have up to three hours of storage, but if you downgrade from the unlimited tier I am at then the oldest files above the three hour limit are made private. Nothing is deleted. I did not know that. I don’t care, I dislike Soundcloud quite a lot, so I will be mostly out of there anyway. Much of my audio on there was either crap or just raw material, which is kind of the story of my life.<\/p>\n

Here comes the storm. I don’t mind the snow, though I am lucky to say that I should have no reason to be out in it. I just don’t know if I’m ready for 20-below zero again, or hurricane force winds. I purchased long johns. <\/p>\n

Someone who had followed my sites since the 1990s just discovered I’d closed sorabji.com. He doesn’t seem to know where to find me. He’ll figure it out? I don’t know. I don’t know if anybody will find me because I stand by my reason for closing the site: I don’t care anymore and neither does anybody else.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
