Today, in an effort to save some time, I took the metro - and wound up walking two miles out of my way... in the rain. I had a great mozzarella-and-chicken salad, though. And the rain didn't bother me much at all.

At the station today I overhead someone saying that #80 bus was late; it was caught in traffic. I took it upon myself to start walking until the bus saw fit to catch up with me, which it never did. For an hour I walked past three Gothic graveyards, a series of Tandoori take-out establishments, the Posh Pets dog groomers, a number of ivy-covered bed...

I'm based in (sometimes) sunny Glasgow. With regular forays to London.
Friday I leave for Europe for 5 weeks. 3 weeks working in Newcastle, one week being silly in London, and one week in Zagreb visiting my 96-year-old ladykiller grandpa.
I need bobbi pins and an emery board...

It was too hot for the plastic wig and the tail kept falling off, so I just went with the pointy bra,
which was not as exciting.
I went to Disneyland, Chinatown, and yesterday... I got some flowers.
Looking forward to a bohemian wedding at my old school, and staying overnight in the dorms.
I can't get too crazy, though - I have a trapeze...

All I can think about is the immense pun value of a relationship with a trapeze artist....
you could fall for them, be head over heels, they could seem to be a real catch, but turn out to be a bit of a swinger, they could lose their grip and you could end up dropping them.

how'd the plastic wig, pointy bra and tail go over?

*gasp*
Here am I, before you again - prostrating. Looking past its difficult to discern between reality and illusion. (In such cases, one may very well live in illusion because its, well, nicer. )
My recollections crack and shatter as soon as I step on them. The fragments fall below my ice-cold ego and onward I ride the carousel of life. I relish feeling so alienated...

Without Reality, there can be no illusion.
And it doesn't work the other way around.
In this world sounds exist whether they are heard or not.

I wasn't planning on getting that schnookered. 
What did you learn on your drive home today? You can only exist in you suffocating vacuum for so long. There are palm trees to discover, waving at you in the wind, waving you to come in.
You learned not to take chances with a 20-year-old Mercedes carting along a horse trailer. Yes, it was lumbering onto the freeway remarkably slow, but it wouldnt be...

You made me want a brownie. On my drive home today I learned that I need an oil change.
They all reminded you of yourself. You saw the plaintive faces once inside, all of them reflecting back to you who you are. Everyone from the by-the-book door lady, who told you you needed to walk clear around to the other side because your printout wasnt honored here. Artificial lines are what irked you the most, and you already considered going home. Then the gent...

Dear L,
Something in your carefully selected articulation suggests more than just one sentence. I have taken a great compliment by you, and wish to extend the same. The problem is, I don't know anyone rich enough to buy you the world. Yet.
Yours,

Sounds like you've acclimatized fast.
