i'm ready. i'm ready to use the word emo and take myself a tad seriously.
which is to say that this is how i am feeling, and have been feeling for a bit now. the weekend was really amazing, confusing, fun, gorgeous, sad, and charming.
there has been more alcohol than i am used to. more cigarettes. more sarcasm. more processing. more late nights and more change than i am used to, too. it's all a little too much right now. i mean, it would be too much anytime.
the good things about the weekend/the things i will talk about here at the cyber group therapy sock hop, are:
coney island LATE at night. it made new york seem normal again. like there are indeed quiet places and there is too an ocean right here at our hips, and seashells, and not too self-conscious singing cheeseball songs with other people who know the same songs and want to sing. because there's just not enough of that.
fruits&friends. turns out a lot of really amazing people like fruit. i felt like a lucky kid, and not just because i had an easter bonnet with cranberries tacked to my head.
gastronimical highlights include: really fantastic whiskey, apricot pie, coffee creme brulee, the best seitan i have ever had. there was so much more but it's too much to list.
and now the proverbial monday afternoon slouch.
