I found a place to rent long term in Paris, from a couple. One is an expert in Hegel and the other a Lacanian psychoanalyst which I'm sure means nothing at all. Newslettering over on my spot, Nervous Laughter. All subscribers are beautiful in the eyes of God. rick-morton.ghost.io/a-room-of-on...

Well done! I live in Vichy where I rent for six months at a time from a lovely women who retires to her country house for the summer, then comes back in the winter (for the central heating).

Nothing to worry about Rick, nothing at all. Was it Lacan who said ’all sorts of things in this world behave like mirrors”?

Sitting on my terrace in Valencia, reading your post about apartments, smiling at the "why" you are there. Almost 1 year here now and still no demos, much less albums, recorded and I haven't cracked any of the three unfinished history books on my computer. But damn if I'm not richer for being here.

It always surprises me what people enjoy! I wrote that just because I wanted to put a picture in and didn't think it was very interesting at all! (But that is a reflection on me, not you).

I always enjoy your little side stories. A description about the apartment you are renting would be nice , what Arrondissement?

I love your writing. And thank you for your thoughts on Segal - you articulate so well the thoughts/ horror/ disbelief floating around in my own brain (which sadly lacks the ability to do more than scream into the void at this point - wtf is this world we’re living in)
