sigh - its true

my refrigerator and I are not friends. i get along well enough with the rest of the kitchen, but have neglected the icebox. its my fault and it appears that today, amends must be made.
but first, i think i will go to yard sales!)
my friend sus and i went to see a French/Algerian guitar player last night - http://www.pierrebensusan.com/welcome.html
it was magic.
if i get my shit together, i am going to UCLA later today to see Anne Lamott speak at the Festival of Lights Book Fair. i have always wanted to check that out.

when we got out of the concert last night, it had started to rain. it smelled so good and with the memory of the music still vibrating in the air, the moment stayed with me.

later...just talked to Blake, the boy doesnt not want to use my truck. he will take the bus and use his bike until he goes on tour. he feels like he has been taking advantage of me and that he needs to get his shit together and deal with his stuff rather than depend on me all the time. whatever. i am here for him and will help in anyway i can...
busy week - but there is alot of work, plus an interview, which i have nothing to wear to...i think i will check out the thrift store on my way to the yard sales before i make up with the fridge.

Wow! That is such a change from all the punk kids I see that have a "sense of entitlement" and never want to stand on their own two feet so long as there's a handout to be had. How refreshing.

thank you.he is an awesome kid. his car got stolen and he had not gotten insurance on it. this was a very sore point between us and i was furious that he had not taken care of the insurance thing. he is learning life lessons. i certainly have no room to talk, having fucked up pretty regularly when i was his age!
