Thursday

June 18


Today was divided into two sections. During the second section, I hung out with various friends, and talked to them, you know, that stuff, so it was okay. But for the entire morning and early afternoon, I felt pathetic, lonely, bored, sick, and disgusted in myself. I couldn't walk though, so that was pretty much the reason for my melancholy. Whenever someone asked me today why I was limping, I would try to owe it up to "acid burn," but not once did that cut it as a legitimate reason, in anyone's eyes. I would have loved it to be accepted. Anyways I'm better now. But you know what I did today? I bought a donut, at the drive-thru, and ate it. Right there in the car. I felt like the epitome of three to four deadly sins.

Sometimes I wish days were twice as long as they are. This way, I could give my family as much of me as I give my friends. I'm really glad I'm going to California with them. Today I found "New Sensations" by Lou Reed on tape. I've been looking for this for about a year now. Listening to it reminded me of traveling around upstate New York with my dad, an excursion I will always remember fondly.

Maybe it's the rain, or maybe the donut, but I'm feeling a little too stationary these days. I need more art in my life, and more velocity.

She looks like the real thing, she tastes like the real thing, my fake plastic love

Acid burn doesn't begin to describe the melt away. Hope you're feeling better.
