after work, after birthday celebration, after long island ice tea and vodka and red bull and tequila shots, standing outside of the house, after the anything-but-clothes party wearing a carefully tailored trash bag with duct tape waist cincher, i get a phone call.
someone i haven't heard from in a while that i keep hanging up on accidentally because i'm not sure exactly how to use the call waiting. on the corner in my trash bag a man in a red truck pulls up and i light his cigarette. he asks if i want a ride but i don't need one. having a provocative conversation with this acquaintance on the phone making me giggle uncontrollably.
walking into the apartment with my boy and viewing for the first time what this trash bag looks like on me and noticing the odd accidental fold which is roughly centered and vaguely phallic. i wonder if anyone else thought that?
mat tears up the makeshift dress and i tell him who called me. she is still awake and we walk the seven blocks to the apartment above the restaurant to get her.
...after the night, after the morning, after the coffee and red bull, the failed attempt to move the piano in the rain. thinking about how some things are worth losing sleep over.
...looking forward to tonight, if i can stay awake! sweet dominas are the best.

hey there- i was just checking out your pics in the hair stuff group. I love your many colors I was wondering about the greens and blues as I'm considering turquoise streaks in my atomic pink hair. I thought the sonic green looked pretty and turquoisey but I also liked the fishbowl- which one stayed in better for you, stayed truest to color, etc? Thanks!
