been home alone all weekend...
which is okay, even tho i definitely get lonely and creeped out home alone and thrive much more in communal situations--people person. been keeping busy playing and starting all these projects. zari slept over last nite and we watched the entire first season of twin peaks. which is like 9 episodes and a 2 hour pilot which is like a work of fine art. the entire first season! it took us until like 6am (we took a break to watch the L word, gossip and talk about girls). which is an amazing feet i think only a very specific type of wacko can handle. we have that in common i guess, and now we both wanna watch the rest of it. need. i cant jump ahead tho, even if i'm fiending cos the first episodes of the second season are the scariest ever.
went out of town last week...
which i think is the thing in the world i needed the most in the world ever. yeah. went to go see the amazing magical mystical murpho (aka zoeann) and her moms and dad. we stayed in an amazing suite c/o cara--favorite jew in the world, thats alot. ate a vegetarian steak sandwich dinner with rana, fell in love with a puzzle(a thousand peices just so you know), separated eggs to follow a french influenced recipe that was chosen by zoe while i was distracted falling head over heels with said puzzle, whoa. we called all the vegetables by their french names and broke bread with ed and lynn. ed who knows every powerful union lady in nyc (for some reason?) and lynns witchy woo woo amazingness and adventures in magic. i felt really at home honestly and its so nice to kind of have that open family atmosphere conducive to conversation around. i never really got that book and i feel like the visit has been really healing for all of us, wicked! all of it totally sent me on this wild streak to start all these new projects--potential energy, healing, inspiration. some ideas...
projects in review...
--started doing all this new age magical writer manifestation spell stuff. like when you write down the things you need from the universe in really specific detail and then it just starts to happen. totally into the power of writing it down like crazy. i started with a superficial one about what i wanted in a partner, which i kind of just did cos zoe was telling me about one she did so it was in my mind (no, i didnt copy) and it was kind of easier than being like, what do i want in life? thats like a really hard question. so did it work you ask?
--made a connection w/ a queer jewish matchmaker that is gonna set me up with all kinds of nice jewish girls she thinks i'll be compatable with. ha. amazing, no? see this is one of the amazing culturally specific things about living in nyc. despite the fact that it is a total spiritual vaccum. these people exist here. not that i was looking for a yenta, but she was nosey about my love life (which i dont mind) and presented herself and how could i say no? in the spirit of generally being game for everything and also i've been watching that matchmaker show on bravo, which doesnt help either. she asked me what i was looking for in a partner and of course i knew really specifically what i wanted cos i had just been processing it and writing it down in my booky-book for like two hours on a greyhound bus on my way home from albany. isnt the universe funny like that?
--started making kimchi and saurkraut at my home prompted by a workshop at owens (aka babyboy) house. by the way, right now, really into fermenting. you know me lover of all projects and crazy amounts of shut in recluse energy. whatever, its winter. met a girl named country casey (cute!) who is a leo (i guessed she was an earth sign, i was wrong but dare you to check the rest of the chart) and really made me feel like i really like GOT what fermenting was about. i feel like she should be my guru or something. owens obsessed with fermenting now too, pickled things are just kinda great.
--found out that since i was born on the 7th day of the month i'm ruled by the planet neptune and that 7 is the number of inner work and growth, interesting. the book i read this in also suggested that becos of this connection to neptune i should be compatable with a pisces, also interesting. now becos of my connection with the planet neptune numerically and my sun in aries there is a duality in my nature one of a warrior and another of a lonely scholar. of course i was flattered, then creeped out and then finally accepted it. i still totally need to write a book report on pisces the last sign of the zodiac. i'm gonna get on that...
