just got back from orientation and buying my muni pass. realized as i was strolling down stockton between the vegetable stalls and people clustered on the sidewalk to watch the blue angels (c'mon people, i know a jet is making a heart in the sky, but it's a sidewalk not a sidestop) one of the things i've really enjoyed lately is the feeling that every time i go somewhere during the day, i'm playing hooky. which is awesome. i'm receiving some entirely new visual stimuli. also realized that's partly why i'm not writing lately: i'm absorbing and storing a lot visually...i've had the phrase 'counterfeit fifty' in my head for a while, and i added 'synthetic aquamarine' to it today...

continuing the trend, i picked up God Save the Queen
at the library yesterday, and started it this morning. the little i read blew my mind, and a print in a union square gallery stomped all over the pieces. i went inside and discovered it was from Damien Hirst's series New Religion. not going to try and analyze either one right now because i'm leaving to hang out with Warpanda and hopefully Roisnoir in a little while, and right now they're both so fresh and immediate, i doubt i could.

also stumbled on an interesting looking dim-sum place on sacramento between grant and stockton if anyone's feeling adventurous sometime...
