Saturday was a toss-up, lovely morning I didn't get outside for, breakfast with the always awesome SR & Robin,and a mission to ocean state job lot where I got some sweet auto detailing cloths that will clean the ionic breeze like a charm. Then rain. A lazy afternoon followed by a pleasant stop by the Milford Goodwill where I bought VHS tapes of Buena Vista Social Club, Cocoon & Cocoon 2, and Detroit Rock City, in addition to a lovely puffer coat for the 2006-2007 cold season, which today seems like a silly notion. Cold Season? Cold? What? I returned the phone call of a person from my historical past but think the message I left was so strange & cryptic and lazy that it was confusing for said person. Or else he had other bitches to chill with. Went to school to pick up some copies of my Ikea love song article. Went to Stop & Shop and bought some 70% chocolate and organic gala apples. Went home and slept like the world was ending, but had nervous and crazy dreams about historical person & current man o' my life, all very blurry and delicious, given the coolness of the evening. Sunday I woke up and ate some oatmeal, went on an epic walk along the Milford Coast, getting close enough to old neighborhood to see the Shore Mart. How many new mansions are sprouting up like bad beach tumors? Many, I tell you. Home again, I feasted on organic apples and Rye Crisps and cheese and iced tea and lounged about, trying to read my school textbook and doing a bad job of it. Then home again, Conini & I tried to go to the Neil Young documentary but were ruined by traffic! Traffic! Then we attempted the Orange Cinemas after a snack stop on the post road and we failed again! What that dastardly springing forward can do to the disorganized! We took the beach road to west haven, then new haven, I got my bike from S.F.'s haus and told her to watch cane toads, then biked to s.h.'s, drank a tiny amount of beer, walked then ate at a new thai place that tasted excellent but has been making me burp for the past 24 hours, walked back to steves where I heard some couple doing it while waiting in the little alcove for s.h. & j.c. to get their toothpaste & stuff upstairs (oh spring! people doing it in the early evening! it was dirty but hilarious!) bicycled in the lovely evening light to BAR, watched Conini play pool, drank water from cups that made it look positively sparkling and alcoholic adorned with citrus, drank more water, saw the slightly ill at ease scout niblett rock out and fade out, then went home, checking out the lovely big spring crescent moon. sleeping with the windows open again is positively delicious.
