I talked to my friend, Alex, for quite a while last night. He just broke things off with his girlfriend of a year, so we were commiserating, I suppose. He sent me some of Louis Wain's paintings. Wain started painting cartoon cats early in his career, but they became increasingly kaleidoscopic as he became more delusional. They're sort of like Prohibition-era LOLcats, come to think of it, though perhaps Wain wasn't LOLing so much as he was stuck in an asylum.

ReplyDeleteI have extremely vivid dreams. Sometimes they're excessively vived, and quite often lucid. Sometimes it seems as though I haven't slept. They're distressing at times - A lot aren't pleasent.
