There is going to be a march on City Hall to end violent crimes in the city on Thursday, January 11th. Everyone is meeting in front of the aquarium at 11:30AM and the crowd is expected to arrive at City Hall at noon. People are showing up at the Sound Cafe to make signs and listen to the Hot 8 band play – whose member Dinerral Shavers was recently found shot in his car –…
Six am – no sleep – phone rings and it is Greg, the carpenter who was filling in while K was in Michigan – he is sitting at my house waiting to get in. He did a lousy job on the trim in the laundry room – I told him it has to be redone and I’m not paying for it to be redone. He doesn’t want to be a helper to K. Blah blah…
It’s 3:30AM and still no sleep – drinking Valerian tea and hoping for the best – but I hate these sleepless nights. I was laying in bed thinking of Rusty and bringing him home – he’s slightly feral, albeit fixed – for two hours I stared at the star twinkling outside my window – guess I can’t leave the windows open with Rusty because he may jump out – I’ve already had one cat commit…
Went to Sound Cafe at 1PM today in the rain, and in the outrage of what we all feel over people getting murdered in their homes with their babies in their arms. There was a big turn out – mostly – let’s just say 99% white – why? – we need a majority – towards the end two young black boys came in – and I encouraged them to join the discussion – but what…
I was talking to Gomez about how it all comes back to boys and why is that? He said maybe it is just what it is. Last night, when D was asking me questions about myself – about what I believed, about philosophy, about happiness, and about my preference (younger or older men?) – I ended a few of my responses with it just is what it is – inevitably he’d respond emphatically – that’s…
G guilted me into rallying for the wedding tonight and I did – the original intention was to go to this wedding and troll for younger men (not my favorite pass-time) but I went in spirit and the wedding was at the Museum of Modern Art and it was lovely and eventually towards the end G was finding her groove when D appeared at my side and stayed there through the Ritz and Jeremy Davenport…
G didn’t show up for work this morning at the LaLa – I got a call from him midmorning saying he needed some money and could I bring him cash, to La Finca. So I did. He had been at a party last night that apparently hadn’t stopped, he was trying to tell me that his girlfriend got mad because his ex-girlfriend was at the party but he and I realized that he had had…
Tommy wants children Well so did I and now what? I say whatever Rachel likes to flirt If men are absent then girls But she is not gay I have S A D Grey skies make me blue and black Rachel needs the sun
Found out late yesterday that the sinks for the bathrooms don’t fit in the cabinets. Found out this morning that the new sinks I need to get may take 8 weeks to come in. Found out also that I will be charged a 50% restocking fee for the old sinks. Ever feel like you have found out too much and you’d like to wind around a zillion times till you unlearn some things you know?
Yesterday was nirvana – well maybe not – but in these days it seemed like nirvana. First the weather was awesome! We had a good call on a stock at work and then rushed another report to the presses to get in under the wire. The LaLa was its usual self – demanding. But I guess what was nice or what made it like nirvana was standing on my porch and watching the Great Egrets…
