costumes

There was also talk of a party where you dress as complex dead celebrity combinations. A lot of ideas thrown around. Trumped by Kamper's DJAMJFK.

CoA

It's official. I live in your neighborhood now. Or it least it's likey.

Last night was the grill premier. We ate all the meat. We ate all the meat cake. We drank eleven bottles of wine.

We came up with really good ideas to accompany yard teepee - namely, to surround it with herds of buffalo poodles, dogs that look like pandas, and huskies*.




*I don't actually want all these dogs in my yard, except for maybe a one-time hang out or photoshoot.

This avocado IS my ten year plan, and I'm already 3 months deep in it.

So big and strong though, right? It was just a pit for so so long. Then it had a tiny root. It cracked open. Keeping waiting for months. AND NOW THIS!

run

Today I got a book out from the library (you gotta hit that when you can. Yesterday they were closed due to "lack of staffing"?).
Idiot's guide to Jogging and Running.
What if I ran? If I was a Runner?

If I spent as much time running as I did looking through this book today, then I'd be a runner, I guess.
Maybe soon. New year, hair, house, running lifestyle?
Also I'm going to start taking those hair vitamins again.

truck?

Conrad gave us this couch (and matching chair) a while ago. It's in good shape. It's long. It's heavy. And it's too big for new house.
I'm trying to sell it on Craigslist, but am really tired of the whole thing.
Do you want it?
Disclaimer: we had fleas. I think we beat it, but we had fleas. Couch needs a good vacuum.
If you can come and pick it up really soon, it's yours. Chair goes too.

on two wheeled transport

I think if you ride a bike, you're supposed to feel this allegiance or solidarity or whatever with people who are like you: Bike Riders. But I'm bad at it, and end up unitentionally excusively liking people with regular bikes. I feel nothing towards bike messengers, delivery boys, or pseudo commuters with their weird folding bikes. I actually get kind of annoyed with them, for no reason.

Similarly, I think I'm supposed to feel this same one-ness with all scooter drivers, but have a big aversion to new Vespa owners. Like, you had the choice of every kind of scooter in the world pretty much (at that price point you do anyway)and you picked that? Pretty much anything else is fine.

It doesn't make sense and makes me wonder if I hate everyone. I don't think I do, but these are the dumbest reasons for dis-like and I wish I knew what was behind them.

Also dislike until won over: boys with drama haircuts, customer service, American Apparel employees, girls, etc.

On the other hand, inclined to like: siblings, maintenance workers, people with dogs.

dark

Just got back from a few days "working" "down the shore".
I felt like I needed a change. So I just dyed my hair.

There's nothing like watching black dye rinse out. I've always wanted to make a quick movie about it to be able to communicate it to people who don't dye their hair - I just haven't been able to work out the logistics I guess. First your whole body gets these black streaks down it, then it's all over the whole shower, brown and black, and water. Then you wash your hair a whole bunch of times, and it's dark lather. Eventually, everything is the way it started (except your hair).

I kind of still want a change though.
