texture · 8 Nov YDAU, evening

  • When: 8 Nov YDAU, evening (Mario's film continuing)
  • What: By evening Hal has "smoked cannabis on four separate occasions—twice w/ others" on the day of rest, has eaten a fourth chocolate cannoli in half an hour, feels "the icy electric keening of some sort of incipient carie in the left-molar range," and after sugar-swinishness sinks "into a kind of distracted funk." He is also in "guiltily sickening stomach-pit shock" over the Eschaton debacle and "his failure to intervene or even get up out of his patio-chair" — the moral cost of his stoned absorption. Consolidates the day's total intake and its affective/dental toll.
