Need to Sleep

Writing on the iPhone is so personal. I am in bed. I am thinking about you, but I don’t know you. I hold you in my hands as I type. My thumb slides over and around your tender keys, hoping to create letters and words that please you, that connect us across the wide rivers and snowy mountains that separate us. I want you to feel that we met for a purpose. Once, I came to this exact location to be a storyteller, a humorist. Those days are long gone. I am now aimless, but learning how to approach the difficult journey. But that’s tomorrow. Always procrastinating. Tonight I need to sleep. I need to close my eyes. Maybe I will dream about you, dear friend. I imagine your lips taste sweet.

    I love curling up late at night and reading posts off my Blackberry. However, the internet browser sucks so I can never comment or post an entry without getting a headache.

  5. It’s because I just licked the bowl after making butterscotch oatmeal cookies.

    I am so clumsy on my iTouch. “Like a virgin / Touched for the very first time.”

    Nah, my lips taste salty. I’m eating a lox and cream cheese sandwich on an onion bagel.

    P.S. I thought Apple was eliminating all of the sex applications for the iPhone. They’re going to find you…

    Hmmmm I don’t blog from my iPhone. It hampers my ability to type at a voracious rate.

    I wish I’d read this on my iPhone while I was pooping so that we could share the love, Neil.

    There’s always tomorrow’s post.

    These are so great. I don’t think I’ll be able to match them.

    Right now my lips taste like apples and cinnamon.

  12. lildb says:

    i’m finally envious of the iphone.

    after all this time, you’ve done me in, Neil.

    THANKS A LOT.

  13. Are you fantasizing about your iPhone?

    I understand, since I just got one yesterday, and I’m already obsessed with it.
