Pretending there are frozen rivers

[squirmelia]

I laid in a bath filled with quivering ice-cubes tonight. Like lying on an iceberg, I tingled as they cracked. Breaking down, liquifying, they soaked my coat, clung to the curves of my back. Southampton's summer-time temporary frozen river dripped towards the plughole. Relaxing, but not quite the Charles River.

I saw a guy with sky blue hair the other day but I was in the car so I couldn't stop and ask him if he knew you. :)

Ack! What that usericon from? It *looks* like Milk (of Milk and Cheese (http://www.houseoffun.com/milkandcheese/)) holding the Obey variant of Andre the Giant, but that seems like too weird a crossover.

Wow, how long did it take you to make all those ice cubes?

I cropped it from this...

I err.. bought the ice-cubes and didn't fill the bath that high really.

Aw, I had a mental (in all senses) image of you manufacturing vast quantities of them, filling the freezer to the brim with trays and trays of ice cubes. The idea of buying them didn't occur; what a thing it would be to have common sense. Wow, that sounds fantastic. You should do it again, and close your eyes and listen to a tape of outside river sounds and ice cracking or something on a walkman.

The sound of the ice cracking kept me awake that night.

i do enjoy a cold shower. Bathing in ice reminds me of Jacob's Ladder.
