not a whole lot going on now...someone posted on the EA forum in the thread about the Silkworm tribute saying
I have listened to The Family Ghost song about 15 times in a row.
So good.
how the fuck about that!? that made me happy, of course...in other words, in like 2 days a book that i spent a whole bunch of money buying (after a whole bunch of time just trying to track it down) is being repressed (well, i guess it's already pressed now, being available for sale i should say)...this would be that complete collection of JG Ballard's short stories...oh well, at least i've already started it and am already a few hundred pages into it...so that makes having it for these couple of months and having just gotten started not-quite two weeks before its rerelease completely and totally worth it...yeah...i tell myself that...though i am thoroughly enjoying it right now so that's something...i wouldn't be enjoying it right now otherwise...i'd just be enjoying it a little later on...yeah...oh, and the thing is i found something about it being reissued on this date on ONE website...but as it is the same date his new book is coming out i figured it was just laziniess or something...it wasn't a news site, just an online store and it just had an upcoming release date at the top...i looked everywhere else...Ballard-related news sites...i had even email the fucking publisher about this fucking book! (of course i never even received any sort of reply) so i can't feel too bad...i looked all over to make sure before i spent a bunch of money for this book i wanted really badly...oh oh well...someone's selling it (the old edition, of course) NOW on amazon for $207...at least i'm not that much of a sucker...
