It's raining heavily
here in the City So Nice They Named It Twice. I trekked up to Union
Square to meet James for lunch. Actually,
we just stood under an awning like a coupla jackasses. It was aight
though. I usually only see him about once a week anyway. And
he gave me some good quotes for my paper that I'm doing on him. I
got that back yesterday. It wasn't so hot. Depsite writing
more than 3000 words, no where in the paper did I talk about what he looked
like or about his music really. So when you're writing about someone
and their music, that's a pretty significant omission.
I kind of want to
get out of New York. i've been fantasizing about it for quite some
time now. I miss the green-ness of Virginia. You know what
I really miss seeing? The horizon. You know, that point off
in the distance where the sky meets the ground? The only way you
can see that in New York is possibly if you stand on Broadway and look
straight uptown. Or maybe if you look into New Jersey. And
who wants to do that?
You know what I
don't miss about rural and suburban areas in the spring? Caterpillars.
Ewww. I remember as a child picking up little catepillars, and thinking
how soft and fuzzy and cute they were. Then one day i pinched one
too hard, and splat, a mustardy yellow mess. And I'd always run over
them on my bike. It's really gross. They come out everywhere
in the spring. How revolting. I hate easily squishable bugs
that can't even fly to save themselves and to save me a mess. Fuckers.
Jed is going home
this weekend for the Easter Holiday. Which is perfect timing since
this is the last weekend of work I have to do. I think. But
Matt's here too. Luckily, with the rain coming down like it is, I
won't feel obligated to leave the house. And Nintendo's not a lot
of fun with just yourself. So maybe, just maybe I'll get something
done.
I'm home phone
with PFC Kathy right now. She wants to
know what Jed told me about her and them. But I ain't tellin'.
She's reading me her journal. I'm trying to do to many things right
now. Typing, listening to Kathy. I'm also trying to listen
to Modest Mouse MP3s.
