I lied about so much and in such a shortspace of time that I should probably begin with the circumstances of my birth. There were three grainy home movies in existence that captured the unbelievable incident on camera. A soft mewling sound was found to be issuing from the manger at the centre of a school nativity play. So that's me, then. The baby-saviour whose sudden appearance was not recognised as a miracle by the State. My origins are disputed and there are some schools of thought that consider me prop-made-flesh. Others are rooted in more digestibly Anglican ways of thinking; degenerates made me, degenerates left me. god he saved me how about that? I remember my home phone number from a house we left when I was 5 years old, but there's sadly a decent chance I can't remember your name. you finish your drink in a vicious way, as if you hate it.
