As the chilly breeze blows off of the Delware River.. i pass my reflection as it bounces back at me off of the pieces of broken glass that are sprawled out like stars on the blacktop.... i see myself and i sigh..
I've neglected my true colors for so long that i no longer feel like a vibrant painting but a gray sketch of pencil scratches that are wick willed and easily rubbed out... I went to work today to make up for the two days i had been an absolute zhombie and i accomplished a great deal..... When i got back from work i was starving... the only nourishment i had had were a handful of munchkins from Dunkin Doughnuts, so i walked up to South Street for a falaffel from Maoz (it was delightful and filling) Still i was mopey and sullen and thought some starbucks might perk me up (usually i wouldn't buy Starbucks but early in the day i ganked a free coupon that Chrissy had sent Steveo) I'll let him know when he gets back from San Diego, I'm sure he wont mind....I walked around a lot and went to all of my favorite thrift stores...
I picked up the following:
An old copy of OF MICE AND MEN
An old copy of NINE STORIES
A really comfortable old purple t-shirt
An excellent Rolling Stones record with thier early hits which is super jazzy and fun
A really rare live recording of The Supremes at the Copacabana
These purchases totaled $12.71 cents.....but feel priceless given my mood... (I feel like Charlie Brown felt when Peppermint Patty kept teasing him with the football, right as he tried to kick it she would pull it out from under him)
I'm going to see the Savages at Dave's movie theater which means the following:
Free admission
Free popcorn and goobers
Free conversation with Mancrush
Possibly some clarity....
Today i feel like the following:
(As stated earlier Charlie Brown)
Simplistic
Sad
Blessed
wrong
Confused
Weak
Contemplative
mopey
Optimistic
