on a wonderful day like today
this morning i received an email inviting me to partake in a collaboration with a bunch of other poets all done via email, alternating lines. when it became my turn, i instinctively thought of the line
"say whirlpool sanitarium snog-fests"
and did not know what snog was or why it was in my head. so i looked it up in the dictionary and look at what it means!!
SNOG
v : snuggle and lie in a position where one person faces the back of the others
so now i have a new favorite word. i cannot wait to snog a lot on friday. heh.

work was good, albeit busy.

after work i went downtown to see dana and helen (the dog me and chelsea are watching next week). the apartment is great and there is nice wine and roof access and big bed. the computer is a MAC which will take some getting used to and the tv is tiny, which doesn't matter much to me, i just need to remember my glasses.
from dana's i went back up to Macy's to meet my new wonderful friend becky. we went *shopping* there and then had the oddest experience. we were "awkwarded" out of the store at around 8:30. there was no announcement that the store was closing, just all of a sudden all other customers vanished, the gates went down, and the salespeople and guards got mean. so odd.
***
i am so excited for friday and the weekend and next week. i think it will be like a vacation...so nice. i am trying to get my coursework and planning out of the way this week so i do not have to think about anything. i'm even willing to read my set of papers from this week during the OC on thursday.
i have lots of fun ideas. we shall go to the raven. hope to see amy and ann. i really want chelsea to meet ellen's BF dave and his friend dan because i think they would get along really well. (dave even has a "shocker" t-shirt...i almost died when i saw it.)
***
i have gotten so little done tonite and i began the day with high hopes. i made a mix cd. wrote a paper assignment. and have just been procrastinating and am now being overly verbose on the lj when i should be writing a new poem.
especially since i am reading at the ZINC BAR really really soon.
3 more days, baby.
