About Me

...catlain...(cat-lynn). named after the wife of dylan thomas/but different... i like ketchup. i dig ellipses. i dig "dig". i drink martinis because of franny glass and recite jabberwocky on command. i play many instruments and draw only stick figures. i would one day like my dog to experience me as alpha in the relationship. i am and always have been a pilgrim. i wear an amulet from my great-grandmother. i chase fraggles. i like ketchup, yes.i.do.--------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------- i am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. i am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. anything I can not transform into something marvelous, i let go. reality doesn't impress me. i only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, i escape, one way or another. no more walls.-anais nin--------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------the mind can assert anything and pretend it has proved it. my beliefs i test on my body, my intuitional consciousness, and when i get a response there, then i accept. -d.h. lawrence

my chickens are gone.
