all the junk you filled your bones with
i am alternately blissful and devastated.
i just got back from olympia, wa! i hitched there saturday with emmie(my bff(?)) and my darling new friend bobby bucket, emmie was visiting for the week from missouri and we have a mutual friend from missouri who lives in oly now, lovely emily, who invited us up to stay with her for the weekend. so we did. we got there saturday night via a car full of organic fresh cut lavender(we were literally sitting on it), pints of organic fresh picked blueberries, and a 50 year old drunk woman who insisted on trying to get picked up five feet away from us that actually did. best ride EVERRR.
me, bobby, emmie are all making hideous faces in the back of a pickup
"pedestrians hitchhikers prohibited"
blueberry pancakes
hayyy america
emily's house is this big glorious colorful homey home with a beautiful garden and blackberry brambles and apple trees and sooo much space and herbs and tinctures everywhere and really nice housemates and it's not even a block from the coop/free store... and to get there you get to walk through an alley with figs, plums, pears, apples, blackberries oh my goddd. NOBODY told me that oly was a magical glittering wonderland of nikki mcclure manhole covers and rainforest hiking and jellyfish and train tracks and seagulls and more fruit for the pickin' than one could ever desire?! i would've gone sooner. we got to camp out in emily's backyard and go hiking and explore and eat free popcorn from the community theatre she volunteers at and play boggle and make amazing wholesome food from the garden together and listen to regina spektor and read lots and lots of pablo neruda.
i didn't feel like i needed a break from portland but it was SO NICE. i love my friends and their hospitality. but i missed people here. all of whom i got to see tonight. yay ♥ so i was just gonna take rural public transit back to portland since my hitchin' partners both went seperate ways, but i missed the only bus of the day by 10 minutes and was forced to hitch back alone. which actually turned out really well, i got dropped off at the deli and was only 30 minutes late for my shift, ahahaaaa. i did dished till 6-7 and then hung out at going nowhere till like 1, jeez. i wish i would've stayed over. guh. we're so awkward. emma was waaasted and got mad at me for no reason and i'm way sadder about it then i should be.
so, tonight, right now, somewhere in southern oregon, dozens of my friends are attending Not Back To School Camp. i am not and i will not this year. this is cause for the greatest despair. i wanted to travel to make up for it but i found out today that august is leaving till december in like 3 weeks, and i'll be in nola by then, and he IS coming to nola in december but GOD DAMMIT THAT'S A LONG TIME UGH FUCK so i'll probably just hang out with him all week honestly because i am so smitten do not make fun of me
and now i'm sitting in my empty room(we steam cleaned the carpets while emmie was here so she didn't lose her deposit on the apt and everything is still fucked) listening to dark dark dark and eating peanut butter out of the jar with my hands, it is consequently on my keyboard, oh fucking well!
