She: Re: shit is hell Re: double barell long story.

He: Well. it's this weirdo journasl that has all these odd stories about grandparents and such, it's kind of interesting because it has thses really naive almost charming drawingss in it.

She: Are you married btw?

He: Do you like john Taverner? I can't stop listening to this beautiful song called fragments of a prayer.

He: Nope. used to be though...

She: I don't know John Taverner. spiritual music.

He: Ha ha.. in my secret life i'm a morning person.. wanna kiss?

She: In my secret life, i am a writer.

She: Actually it is a scret no more. i do write. and i have one person reading it.

He: Ha ha nicely avoided.. you know who is a good writer? Leo Steinberg. he is one of my gods.

He: Ha ha sweet. who is he?

She: What does leo steinberg write about.

She: French guy. used to work for french government, in communication. he said it is good. It is kind of sexual, like short stories. Me i laught when i am done. my stories make me laught.

He: About art. I hate most critics. I like a couple of french ones, wanna french kiss? sorry.. i will stop.

She: The best of all: bernard lamarche-vadel. But why why he killed himself?

He: You mean they make you laugh? The sexual ones? do you like michel Houellebecq?

She: I read him. i like. i don't have yet the distance with my stories. my intentions are not to be bitter as MH.

He: You know what i like the most about France? the women

She: Other favorite: Harald Szeeman. I met him a long time ago in Miami and he shared with me a secret.

She: That's so cliche!

He: I agree. i think he is our generation Camus but i distanced myself from that kind of dark stuff. It's nice to visit but don't want to live there.

He: I love that guy! what was his secret??

She: Grey. dark has more color.

She: But i share some kind of same writing cadence. shorter.

He: Are you saying that to me or you... yes yes you'r right. that is a cliche. ha ha well done.. that was a joke but only cool nerds get it.

He: What is that harolds secret?

She: Are u calling me not a cool nerd, right?

She: It is my secret.

He: I like Alain Robbe Grillet and Zola. but i'm def more bataille than breton .

He: I am calling you a cool nerd. I love nerds. I'm a nerd. nerds are different than geeks. My favorite people are nerds. Stop being so french.. haha!

She: Zola. really. i finished reading the 22 books of the rougeon macquart when i was 14.

She: Breton no. Ernst yes.

He: Shit. i've only read the drinking den. i fucking love it! but there is this other story called under the volcanoe or something.. i was reading comics when i was 14 but i was listening to the smiths when i was 9..

She: When did you had sex for the first time?

He: Oooo Ernst.. une semaine de bonte!!

She: Just for their threesome.

He: Like 17. That was real sex. I had a lot of rubs and fumbles before that but that was first real sex. waht about you? i'm not embarassed by that age btw.

She: Why should you be embarassed by the age??

He: What do you mean? I'm talking about those etchings. I love Ernst.

He: Well a lot of men start younger. I was too busy with skateboards and records. but you didn't answer me..

She: Jules and Jim. Ernst Paul Eluard and Gala (before she got married to dali)

She: Same

He: What's that got to do with ernst? Jules and Jules is Goddard, no?

She: I meant for the age. i never skateboard.

He: Oh yes! of course.

She: Godard, yes

He: Oh well. that's sweet. That means you're a nice girl. i like nice girls. do you wear glasses when you were at school?

He: Do you like Rivette?

She: No i am just difficult. i did not wear glasses and i was very popular.

She: Bof

He: So was i. but i championed the dorks! apparently all the hot girls were in love with me.. ha ha no kidding. i just didn't notice which was probably part of the attraction from the girls side. i gave up skateboards and records when i discovered girls.

She: So you team up in chemistry class with blond big boobs...

He: Do you have something wrong with you anatomically? sorry to ask ha ha..

She: What??

He: I never used to like big boobs but they're kind of great. but i like pretty much all boobs. it's always about the person who owns them. i always did my own homework btw..

He: Ha ha just asking.. harmless.. i thought maybe you had a penis or something. chill

She: Woua. good night. a penis.

He: Some asshole beat the living shit out of me last night. For 6 bucks!!

She: What are you talking about?

He: No. for real. this guy attacked me in popeyes at like 3 in the morning..

She: Popeyes?

She: That's in brooklyn?

He: Can we stay up all night talking? You don't get my humor though.. but i like you. you're smart.

She: I get it. Penis humor.

He: Yeah it's a chicken shit hole. I was very french about it. after he ran off i bought my ffod, wiped my nose and left before the cops came and went home and listened to Leonard Cohen.

She: 3 am. I open the frigo naked and i drink milk.

He: I've got a black eye now although my face seems to not even get too badly bruised by any of that kind of thing don't know why. Maybe because i'm american. ha ha

He: Naked and milk? That is a big tease... I want some milk.

She: Put cucumber on your eyes. It works for dark circles.

He: Haven't got any cucumber just whisky.

He: Does Nick Drake work?

She: I don't know him.

He : So you were the popular girl at school who all th boys fancied? but they were too dumb for you?

She: Kind of. I had rules.

She: I had a life outside the school.

He: I want to know about your rules. Are you an aristocrat?

She: Jewish are not aristocrats.

He: Were you a naughty revolutin girl? hanging out with intellectual bikers and shit..

She: No either

She: More into art fashion and music

She: And older men

He: Fucking tell that to the queen or serge. I'ma half jewish did you know that?

She: Queen the dead singer?

She: Are you? Half. I understand being or not being jewish. but half sounds like double booking your night.

He: No the fucking queen! she's part jew didn't you know that? We are all over the place.

She: From where is she jewish? closet side?

He: Dude. Give me a break. My dads family is totally jewish. Look at my fucking face!!! Do i look not jewish to you? My name is Baruch.

She: Dude. Barruch was one famous family in germany in order to get into the society and make their famous music they gave up their jewish identity. whatever face they had.

He: Yeah closet side. But you're not a strict jew are you? did you have a bat and all that? I've been totally deprived of all that.. i'm sensing that you don't believe anything i say but i assure you it's all true. i'm done with irony and cleverness and wit.

She: I am half

He: Yeah but i've got nothing to do with that. I know my family history. My original family name is not Baruch. with one r. it was changed when they left Europe so we wouldn't all get gassed.

She: What is your original family name?

He: Why don't you just call me? This texting is doing my head in. I want to know more about your "sexual awakening" with older men. Did you go to bed?

he: Ha ha wouldn't you like to know

He: I mean you obviously liked me or were you just being super professional? I know someone called Chesley Fleur. Any relation?

She: 1/ no 2/ i like it 3/ yes

She: No

She: Good night

He: You went to bed? The order is getting all mixed up.

He: Awright. Night night beddy buys. I'm still thinking of that cold milk and nakedness though
