4 What It's Worth Book at the Salon

May 19, 2007 20:36

What can I say for myself?  That I adore a  tree house where one can sit on the second floor wooden porch and rock the day away reading a book in the tops of Oak trees with Mardi Gras beads still hanging in their limbs, even in May. I had brought one of the books from my summer reading box that I packed off of the library shelves at school. 
It is way worth the extra cost for how pretty and pampered I feel after a day at the salon with hardwood floors and ceilings, resting in a tranquil, Oriental theme. My hair feels and looks expensive, even if to my imagination only...I will live in this single allowed rhapsody and by go sensibility for this one luxury. This beauty spot has been my favorite since I was 15 years old and had my hair done professionally in the exact salon for the first time in my life. 
To further justify the expense I say that after all I am only shopping at the thrift store for summer clothes.  And I am not running around in my car so no gas $ makes up for the difference.
I decided that this summer I will be tanned and ignore the veins on the back of my well-muscled legs. Instead, I say that I have wonderfully highlighted blonde hair, long legs, and a sun tan.  I can't care or worry about being not perfect (these are truly large blue veins that I have been super conscious of in the past). So I have a tight and short denim mini skirt I wore today. Yep, found it at the thrift store. It is the shortest item of clothing I have worn in ages and I mean ages, but not over short all the same. And I didn't care. (maybe a smidgen conscious still)
After a long time at the salon having my hair highlighted to be bright, after relaxing on the second story porch, I went to the book store and ate rasberry lemon cheese cake :-) oh so yum.

I bought Grandmother Julia some specialized Rice Dream ice cream.
Supposedly it should arrive to her very front door, packed in dry ice.  She doesn't go out to shop anymore and this product is not easy to find (yet) in regular grocery stores.

I'm gonna make a mistake
I'm gonna do it on purpose
I'm gonna waste my time

'Cause I'm full as a tick
And I'm scratching at the surface
And what I find is mine

And when the day is done, and I look back
And the fact is I had fun, fumbling around
All the advice I shunned, and I ran
Where they told me not to run, but I sure had fun, so

I'm gonna fuck it up again
I'm gonna do another detour
Unpave my path

And if you wanna make sense
What you looking at me for
I'm no good at math

And when I find my way back
The fact is I just may stay, or I may not
I've acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake I wanna make a mistake
Why can't I make a mistake?

I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why

Do I wanna do right, of course but
Do I really wanna feel I'm forced to
Answer you, hell no
I've acquired quite a taste for
A well-made mistake, I wanna make a mistake
Why can't I make a mistake

I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why
