forgotten sense of me
It is fall. IT IS FALL. it's cold and I want to be in my pajamas all day errday...but at the same time I want to bundle up and walk up and down the streets of New York City listening to weather appropriate music.
I did some of that yesterday after my matinee date with Felix. We went to see For Colored Girls a film to do with the plight of the modern urban African American woman. It's raw and highly poetic, iterally, so much so that it felt like a play through most of it which I half liked. I wholly loved Thandie Newton's performance the most although all the women were great actresses. I never thought I'd sincerely like anything directed by Tyler Perry but alas this one is a winner.
After the film I walked from 34th and 8th to 23rd and Madison, where I met Juice and her fiance for lunch and then went their place to play Kinect Sports. It was odd that my first bowling experience was via video game format but it was fun all the same and I played discus and kicked ass. The most fun was probably target kick where you have a limited amount of time to kick in as many soccer goals as possible. My legs were killing me after that. I wish I had the room to have this at my house, I'd totally be in shape! When Juice gets the dance games, Zumba and the yoga game I'll be over there quite often on her days off haha.
When it got dark they walked me to 42nd street where I got hungry and decided to walk to 6th ave and get some Chipotle. I craved Red Velvet cupcake again so I stopped at Crumbs to see if there were any but there weren't so I walked all the way to Amy's Bread to get a slice of cake to go. Sassy Mr. Amy's was there being super sassy as he's been lately, he's always a sight for sore eyes. If he only knew....
I went home listening to Darkstar North which I had fallen asleep to the night before and I continued to listen to it through the night, then switched to Warpaint and then to the new Telefon Tel Aviv song "Lengthening Shadows." I realized into the night how much this much this music makes me feel so lonely but at the same gives me the utmost comfort and warmth during these shorter, chilly days that have felt so long to me.
WOMP WOMP
I'm just back on the wagon tomorrow. In what ways I know not but I know I will somehow.
