Blur: 3862 Days: The Official History | 
Let me tell you about purgatory. Shortly after politely being informed of my death, I'll be led into a personal waiting room with several items. There's a bookcase, a chair with no foot-rest, and a stereo. A small table next to the chair includes my reading glasses and my favorite mug, full of tea. "Why, this suits me just fine!" I think. Wandering over to the bookcase, I notice: it's full of all the books I've abandoned in my life.
kidamy I choose one at random before approaching the chair. The chair is, well, it's fine. But, you know, it could really use a foot-rest. No matter. I open the book to where I left off and settle in. Minutes later I notice I've stopped reading and in just idly staring at the page. I reach for the mug. 7y
kidamy The tea is warm. Ish. It's warmish and it's not very strong. I'll enjoy it, but it's not quite to my liking. I approach the stereo. It's a six CD carousel, full of my favorite bands! Full of...my least favorite albums from my favorite bands. 7y
kidamy I look around the room and sigh. There's no art on the walls. It's bright enough, but there's no lamps. "Where am I, really?" I think to myself. I approach the door to ask what's going on and I hear the click of the lock. Guess I better get reading. 7y
