quello che nasconde la sua verita

[aslant]

Rome and Treja share the mystery of their names. Rome is a name-mask, that which hides its truth. We will never know what this name was, as we will never know what strange or masked creature gave Treja her name. There is no exact etymology; one can only see something that disappears, as through a fluctuating veil. From an unrecoverable mystery Treja was born, but the letters of her name were always here and there, scattered upon the land.

my favorite piece of the translation, today. it is such satisfying work, although the dictionary grows ragged from flipping back and forth in the interminable s section. slancio, sfocciando, smisurata, sfacciato. i lean into the tone of dolores' voice and it is so familiar, like reentering the hibernation of last january when i absorbed the last of the book in a fury of afternoon reading.

i listen to belly on the stereo: somewhere to sleep/somewhere to scrape your body off my feet...

well, the lj entry that i was worried about got lost in the vast emptyness of the cyber world, so i'm sitting around wondering if i really give a shit. anyways, i found livejournal.com/users/faith and she has some cute pictures of herself down the page a little ways. i thought she was cute. :) i dyed my hair red, it turned out florecent fuscia. whatever. gracy gave me very berry lipstick from jafrah, and it stains your lips like the stuff at rite aide did, and i love it. i bought a new black wrap dress in lincoln city on saturday, and with my hair, the lipstick makes me look like i stepped out of the 1950's. very chik. i love it. thanks gracy! anyways, i'm copying this as a responce to jes and a lj entry, i think it's kinda interesting...anyways. had a bit of a heart to heart with dylan today, it was interesting to say the least, we talked about a lot of stuff that we hadn't wanted to tell eachother while we were dating, and yeah, it was fairly educational. feelings towards him are very confused...i think i'm going to fall inlove with some music now, and get to bed, i finally get to sleep in until 10 tomorrow. amen! i love you jess, for some reason i'm really missing you tonight. something comforting about having you at home. addie's going to be staying with me here at home from thursday through saturday, i was going to bring your bed into my room for her, do ya mind? i'll talk to you later, i can't get into my email right now, stupid disinfo, the network connection is timing out, and i'm super pissed/annoyed with disinformation right now, so we'll see what it lets me do tomorrow. hey, atleast i can play with lj for the time being. laters.
