quote of the day

"Hey man, got flames?"

A hobo trying to lit a cigarette.

rain over manhattan

It rained hard over Manhattan last night. It was dark and it smelt of spring and fertile earth... and concrete. I was walking home, beetroot leaves dangling out of the shopping bag. What is the secret of a delicious beetroot salad? I thought I'd get the beets first and figure the salad out later. I also got a jar of German sauerkraut.

The volume of plastic bags one is assigned to at any store here is kind of overwhelming. I always ask them to downsize. Give me smaller, give me fewer. It's the guilt thing, I know I'm not supposed to consume that much. I do not NEED so many.

Did you know that Time Square turned 100 last week? Did you know that over 2 million teenagers in the US get plastic surgery every year to resemble their favourite movie or pop star? Did you know that our office building swings in the wind? It creaks a lot and aloud as it does so. It is totally possible to get seasick in the toilets.

And yeah, Timeline is out on dvd today!!! Excitement!

i'll talk to you later

I've not seen or spoken to anyone for a week. Except for work. And that's OK. I've got my daily phone calls with you and that's all that I need.

I spent $6 on tips to stop the toilet from flushing. Again.
I spend $20x2 daily at a grocery store picking out delights that would not make me sick.

It's all about what my parents said and what my sister said and what you said and what everybody else said that I'm trying to make life altering decisions and somehow accommodate the most amazing week spent at home. There's a lot of love in my life.

Imagine a world where everything makes sense..., where pieces fit and come together. Where potholes in the road and shiny Selver isles make you cry.

I've stopped counting days - for a while anyway. There's just too many to get by. I reply to emails welcoming me back saying: Let's keep in touch - I'll contact you when I'm ready. To face this city. When I'm ready.

Until then... I'll talk to you later...
