listening to: neurosis - enemy of the sun mixed with evening birdie chirps and stinkbug buzzes
smelling: stormy air

oh, hi.

birds are chattering eagerly
in the late afternoon,
early evening
exulting in the second warm day this spring
i smell a storm
and something from the kitchen
brewing
and note one itty bitty red bird
perched atop an electric wire
exploding against the overcast sky
brilliant
in the audacity of his feathers
and puffed chest
the tiniest dominator
unwavering before the unfathomable expanse
of the sky
open window, now
curtains have been released
filtering the already delicate light of evening
i am lying on my bed
watching layers of sheer fabric
blowing ever so slightly
in the breeze
feeling the air
hearing the birds and one distant rumble
seeing not the scene out my window
but the curtains that ripple like waves,
billow like a dress around delicate ankles
effortless submission of fabric to the wind
one of the most calming sights of all time

(and i envision my gallant, blood-red bird, somehow controlling it all behind curtained windows)



its a pleasant evening.
how are you spending it?

life's been lovely.

a small theater downtown was playing the original psycho for a few days last week, much to my pleasant surprise. so after work thursday i curled up in a seat in an empty theater and enjoyed the classic horror or mr. hitchcock. norman bates is one of my favorite characters of all time.

friday was filled with cheap whiskey, friends i've missed, and staying up till sunrise.

saturday was full of hanging with muh man. glorious sleep and nakedness and scrabble and daria and only leaving bed to make a mountain of eggs and biscuits and potatoes upon waking around 4 p.m.

sunday i had an interview for a second job, yet another shoe-in restaurant gig.
forcing myself into this to save some cash for travels, perhaps a computer, perhaps a car, and a possible move at the end of the summer. (more on that some other day)

afterwards i wandered all day in the brilliant sunshine and drank tea instead of coffee because i've been sick sick sick all week long and ate delicious, bacon-covered pizza at the rivah.

today it was back to work. a nice, slow day to start off the week. i mostly hung out, made pastries, and ate cake. rough day at the office

speaking of cake
check out my scrumptious rexxy-licious late birthday cake!
drum roll please.



chocolate cake.
chocolate buttercream inside
peanut butter buttercream outside
chocolate and peanut butter buttercream balloons on top.
huge curls of milk chocolate and white chocolate on the sides.



i feel the end is nearing in these next few months,
but working at a bakery sure has had it's perks.

been real broke for awhile.
get paid wednesday.
GONNA BUY SOME FUCKING BACON.
AND SOME FUCKING SRIRACHA.
AND SOME FUCKING WEED.
AND SOME FUCKING HOPPY BEER.

in the mean time i'll be kickin it around the pitts, enjoying the nice weather that has finally arrived.
looking forward to some hopefully raging storms in the next few days.
