Why It's Better For Me To Live Alone
Getting up from my chair a few moments earlier, I proclaimed:
“Soft! Something is---missing. Or so, the process has been . .mislaid!”
I said this aloud, to myself.
I've been unwrapping tiny chocolate all morning. Sure, I mean sure, I'm happy as a freakshow now, but fully expect me to sugar-crash come workshop. Sorry, you guys! I'm so sorry! I am unable to maintain the workings of my own body. I rather like propelling it.
In much less substantial news, I've written a poem, and as I've coyly said behind the new shrub on my smoking stoop (!I have branches to look at now when I exhale!) a few moments ago, "gee, my poems are becoming so . . feminist!
I better get mounds of feminist glee come next week. I've been reading The Women for a month now. i.e.: I should like to see you at home. In your own culture.
(oh yes, And I think Debbie is fantastic. That girl makes me laugh a pastel-streak, intelligently!) :))))
C: Sorry for the snub when I was with SV yesterday! We were actually in a meeting, and I was desperately trying to be professional. :)
Coming to the launch Sat??
Posted by: Joy at March 23, 2005 8:43 AMah! I had a sense something was up. I did manically keep thinking about it though because, that's the kind of paranoid girl I am. So, good to know. :)
Launch: yes, for sure! It'll come on as a type of cleansing of *what I've done*, I think. Ben seems non-committal about the whole thing, but, I mean, when have they ever not been a blast?? Convince him!!
& also: we haven't been hanging out nearly enough as our mutual brilliance would warrant. This makes me sad. But (!) am staying the summer through, so will be able to catch those last glimpses of you guys before you fly off to Japan.
xoxoxox!
oh, wait, Ben tells me there's a writing group this summer . .if I remember correctly. That's fantastic. !
