That's the last time you put a knife in me! Y'hear me?

you'd think that by now i wouldn't be so distracted by planes flying overhead - not so.
don't you love it when you find clothes you forgot you had? i got this crazy idea that i have SAD and i need to move to a sunnier climate (and yes heather, austin and YOU are at the top of my list) and in order to do so, i have to scale down my life. that means cleaning out my closet. in the process of shoving countless unworn cotton dresses, elastic waist skirts and hooded sweatshirts into a large goodwill bag, i came across this little johnathan logan gem. how did i ever miss you? what a score!i met up with frank for dinner at squid and ink, a little vegan dive in georgetown. i'd been meaning to try it for a long time and, holy crap, am i ever happy i did!
"i think they took happiness, smashed it into a patty, breaded it with love and smothered it in gravy." that was my description of my "chicken" fried steak. it was nummy and the prices kicked ass. btw they have mannys on tap. yays!

stereo total makes me very happy, too. tu es lunatique!

i accidentally vacummed up cat fresh linus puke (don't ask) and now everytime i turn on the vacuum it smells like tender vittles. that sucks. it's cold and i'm full and tired so i snagged my copy of "the royal tennebaums" and climbed into bed. did you know it was inspired by orson welle's "the magnificent ambersons"? i adore both films for their dysfunctionalities and quirkitudes. yes i made those words up.but how can you NOT love wes anderson with lines like this?
Ethel: Are you crazy? Royal: Baby. I am dying. Ethel: Are you or aren't you? Ethel: Dying? Yeah.Richie: I wrote a suicide note. Chas: You did? Richie: Yeah, right after I regained consciousness. Chas: Well what does it say? Is it dark? Richie: Of course it's dark, it's a suicide note. Chas: Can I read it? Richie: No. Chas: Well could you at least summarize it for us? and the costumes? hell yes.i also found my cyndi lauper purse and leopard coat while cleaning. i feel like a new girl.
plus i think i'm buzzed.

well that's a self diagnosis but i have been depressed for pretty much most of my life. wouldn't it be nice to just blame it on the climate?
as soon as i save some pennies to cover missing work, i'll take you up on that offer. kisses!!!

Love the dress! You look absolutely beautiful in it.

Plus I had another dream about you, Susie. We were sewing dresses using antique Singer sewing machines from the 1960s.
