is that a hyena in the bathtub?

[tsuki_no_bara]

saw two apartments tonight - one we planned to see and one that was a surprise - the rental agent said "i have another one like this about nine minutes away..." so we went - they were both too small and the second one was in a really cute neighborhood but not near anything, including, you know, a bus stop. hopefully we'll get to see another place tomorrow.

while i still have hbo max i watched birds of prey which i have to say i enjoyed. it was fun. huntress is so hilariously weirdly socialized and i was really glad bruce the hyena survived. and i liked harley a lot more in this than i liked her in suicide squad, probably because her entire existence didn't revolve around the joker. also, it was more fun.

You know I know what I’m doing.
I’m always with you.

I’m watching these lines get to you.
This is how we’re close.

We can’t have knowing looks
(we’re both as good as dead)

so we have these knowing lines,
typing till the clock says stop.

And if in the course of struggle
a foot slips and we fall,

what does that matter?
I won’t come back to you

when the song is over.
I will not want you

or your unsuitable house and lot.
Expect to miss me, though-

expect ice and snow, rain and hail.
To be embarrassed. To be changed.

To write the year on a check
and be one hundred years off.

To let it go
when I express displeasure.

To let my anger go. Just drop it. Just take it
as you drop it.

Just take it
and go.
