last night i moved into a *new* temporary apartment.
little brick building. hardwood floors. lived-in furniture (none of this pottery barn shit.) two cats (fonzie and sneetch.) a kitchen that is *actually* outfitted with spices and whatnot. three globes. plants. and a big pink closet filled with [good] CDs, two nascar barbies, and a happy days lunch box. it's right around the corner from easy street records (i've already broken my streak of not buying CDs.) the woman that lives there left me $20 and a clever, meticulous list of information and places to go. oh my, i'm in love. (toby, i wish we had been living HERE all summer.)
my evening: record store. grocery store. made stir fry and ate it outside with the sunset. watched bravo's gay bonanza on television with a bowl of strawberries. sat outside in the dark (and there was absolutely no drunken banter coming from the corners of the neighborhood. just quiet.) perfect.
my quiet voice (barring those instances when it goes high pitched and loud after i've had my buttons pushed...you jackasses) is going to be the bane of my existence. it don't work so good for answering the phone.
