A Sexy Prologue.

 "I don't know where I got the title for this bulletin, I sure made this up. But I like it!"
___

I hate redundancy, but I just can't think of a good title for this. And that's really a lame excuse, for a writer like me.

Anyway, I quoted myself (above), because this title is the same one I posted in a Myspace bulletin.

For the past hour, I was searching for this book, "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream" by Harlan Ellison, only to find out that it is not available here, and I can only get that by ordering through Amazon and it is quite expensive. I tried researching for a "copy" of it somewhere and I finally found one in PDF format, though I'm not sure if it is really accurate. A friend of mine has recommended it to me, and as I have this thirst for literature, I wanted to read it. It's actually a science-fiction short story and I just learned that the books of this author are rare finds.

I've been thinking a lot lately about this said friend. He hasn't responded. He disappeared and though I could just as easily say, "To hell with him!", I could not. He's a really good friend and I cannot anymore ignore the people who've been a part of my life by letting it die, just as I had let some good friendships die in the past years. This is a turning point for me because I used to think only of myself and my dark thoughts, but now I want to do things right and I hope that things would be good again.
___

I recently reconnected with a childhood friend. We were neighbors when we were kids and he's now in the U.S and he hopes to visit Cebu again next year. Perhaps we could hang out.
___

I've been having strange dreams last night and the other night as well. Something like murder and monsters. I cannot recall the exact details. I wonder what it means. I'm a self-confessed insomniac. Also, I'm a vampire. I'm awake at night and sleep during the day.

It is dark now. I'm alive and alone in my thoughts.

I hope the version of the book you found is good. I'm wondering if it's difficult or expensive to get those book readers, where you can download books for a fee and read them right on the reader. A friend has one, and I think it's even expensive here, but so cool and it seems possible for her to find a huge range of books.

Sorry about your friend. Maybe something is going on with him in his life. People withdraw sometimes. I'm glad you are reaching out to him.

You live in Cebu, that's so interesting, we are geographically so far away from each other! I love that we can still connect online though. Sorry about the bad dreams and hope tomorrow is much better!

I had the most fascinating dream awhile back where my best friend and I were escaping from a mental asylum campus stretched out over 20 or 30 industrial buildings... it was fascinating.

Heh. Yeah, I know that. There is so much more to be a vampire than sleeping during the day. But that's just one of them. :P

Hm. Weird. But it is indeed fascinating. It makes me want to write that into a short story.

I have read that story, it was part of a Science Fiction Anthology. I found it it can be found in Hugo Winners
