the honeysuckle outside my apartment is blooming. sentimentality wafts through the air. i've been thinking about the butterflies. they haven't flown in almost a year. not everything is prettier from afar. the weather has been awkward lately. a forceful front flooding the park with nerves. and gin. tonic only dilutes so much. crumb by crumb in this big black forest in you i'll believe. skydiving never looked so lovely. i have to learn to let you crash down. if a double decker bus...
save your poison for a lover who is on your side
i had a dream the other night. it felt like i was in match point. or just the visual aesthetic of the countryside in match point. i was walking with an indiscernible lover under a vine-covered canopy in a garden. it was romantic. i blame alain de botton. sounds like something eric and alice would do...or alice would like to do, rather...in the romantic movement.
weekend was good. friday night was old elton john dvds with mandel, tim, scott, philip. i brought some wine with me which was rather disappointing. i had hopes for it since i believed the vineyard in france to be a good one. it was the color of piss, and the taste of alcoholic piss. i'm glad i was the only one who had any of it. how embarrassing would that have been?
saturday i watched some tennis. saw sondre lerche at borders. that man needs to be mine. i wish i could pull off ascots. it's probably best that i can't or else i'd wear them all the time. bought new shoes at shoe pavilion. rather last minute decision as they were closing (at 8p!!). i shouldnt have. the pumas already have given me a blister at the top of my toe and the maddens might be half a size too small. but i'm not one to return things. i think they both just need to be broken in....but at what cost to my feet? met rob at the abbey. no one else decided to join us. headed to east west. i was home before midnight. i got sick in the middle of the night. that carried on through until early this afternoon. i think it was nerves. or the meatballs. a few months ago i was having problems where i would just wake up in the middle of the night vomiting. i hope this isnt that coming back.
you're such a wonder that i think i'll stay in bed
went to the art show with jon today. followed by early dinner at cheesecake. the rain held off. i need to clear some wallspace so i can get some of the de la nuez prints. dh tonight. i miss the sunday crew.
the yellow walls are lined with portraits and i got my new red fetching leather jacket
