Vampires too hate sand in their picnic lunches

I'm feeling bret easton ellis withdrawal symptoms.
I have the desperate need to consume cocktails in the afternoon. I never want to take my sunglasses off, even in the midst of afternoon downpours. My lust for new items is beginning to consume me. My social commitments, starting in about a week's time, will exhaust me, and I simply have no host of vapid, soulless trend mongrels to lap up my uber savvy whinge-fests.
With all that being said, it's been a couple of years, BEE, time to dump another mind-bending, culture schlock, pain tome on the slavering masses.
Solitude...
like my daily multivitamin, is beginning to give me a vague sense of nausea, and I'm afraid I'm forgetting what either one is good for anymore.
I feel so removed from all things as they happen. Perhaps this is the preferred state of the author. I should, by all rights and purposes be writing my flour addled brain out. It's not as if I have an abundance of cognitive challenges in my current line of work. In fact, I am at the point where i no longer feel present in the bakery for most of my time there. I measure out the recipes, assess whether my employers are suffering any breakdowns and, provided the air is mostly clear, my conscious mind climbs out of my skull and goes walkabout. In the rare instances it does stick around it gets so bored, I find myself telling long wandering stories (not that I don't do that anyway) but I've begun tossing in full blown lies just to keep myself entertained.
I know how this one ends, I think petulantly, blah blah blah, and he frog walked out of the gymnasium on tiptoe...I might as well toss in a blood spattered pair of sneakers by the locker room, or some missing electrical tape-oh what the hell-"so that's when his crotch hemorrhaged and we had to use a back pack to keep back the fountain of blood nevermind Mr. Brault battling the vultures with an improvised jockstrap slingshot..."
I suppose I'm doing my brain absolutely no good coming home after work and watching Weeds online until I'm too tired to keep my eyes open anymore. Meh.
In other news, Bob and I are watching Roman Polanski's 1967 film The Fearless Vampire Killers. It's freaking hilarious. I think we have to find it for owning sometime. How our collection managed to survive this long without it is beyond me. It is a bit unnerving to see Sharon Tate in all her redheaded, 60's glamour, but Polanski himself is actually foil to the Professor Helsingish Vampire hunter in the movie, and he's just so bumbling and adorable and hilarious you can't help being sucked in (oh dear god I didn't see the pun until it was in writing, forgive me).

Life consists of gueurilla pastry gifting...doorknobs beware lest ye bear such strange fruits as scones, croissants and oatmeal cinnamon raisin rolls. I gave my downstairs neighbor a loaf of garlic sourdough, and she told me to swing by the edgewater for a margarita. I guess this means she's not a vampire.
Also running in the morning down by the willows I enjoy the views of Salem's fattest; the yacht club, SUV driving, oversized sunglass camouflaged trash rubbing shoulders with hispanic barbecue parties at ten in the morning with lots of little girls with incredibly long dark hair in many variations of ponytail screeching and running while fast food trash blows by like tumbleweeds amongst the geriatric ocean gazers literally out to pasture while their scrub-clad caretakers smoke and curse by the arcade. I run beside bitchy girls on cell phones slumping off to the filthy beach, beer bellied fathers giggling as their yoohoo bellied sons taunt the seagulls, every variety of soccer mom running faster than me, and the somehow still pure and perfect tiny children toting sand buckets, eating popsicles, digging at their ill-fitting bathing suits and crying while their parents rub gallons of sunscreen into their flesh.
This is summer in massachusetts.
