Good day sunshine. Here is a sign in pompeii that points you to the brothel. Hot. I have nothing else to report.

Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick,

...the one that makes me SCREAM she said, the one that makes me love, she said, threw her arms around my neck. Show me how you do it and i'll promise you, i'll promise that i'll run away with you....
-just like heaven

yeah, so i'm still on my The Cure kick today.

good days, just one crappy thing.

today i had a lucky day. scored 3 new albums from 3 random people. weird. i must have a sign on my head that says "please burn me a disc of something new to listen to." seriously it happened 3 times in 2 hours. also, i had a moment in my car yesterday where i realized that i LOVE the cure. i don't just dig them, i love them.
only one crappy thing happened...i found out that i have to go to milwaukee (sp?) for the catalog press run. for FIVE days. i'm not talking going to the city, i mean the outskirts w/ the crappy industrial parks & print warehouses. did i say FIVE days? yeah. and the worst part (yes, it gets worse) is that we have to check the print runs, which could be at anytime. 2am, 4pm, 6am....on call for FIVE days. i will look at it as a unique experience and just sit in my apartment and play guitar and read. maybe it won't be so bad.
tennis, i would have stayed if i didn't have 2 others w/ me & no car. that would have been fun. i actually have your # w/ me in case i am in boston suddenly, which happens. will be there wednesday i think.
i miss everyone. love you as well.

some pics

wish i had more, but i don't. and as you can see, they are blurry. so i tried to make the most of them w/ photo shop. love to all. ps: adrienne's computer is all fucked up. she wanted me to pass that message along. love.

Car naps are my favorite.

highlights of wknd = balthus paintings at met. dogwoods in bloom & flowers everywhere. walk through park in the rain. (it was freezing but still fun.) making dinner. discovering that i like brooklyn way more than village/soho area. discovering i really do in fact hate midtown. discovering that sarah's hand-me-down metro card had like 12 rides left on it. score. getting new school bag at brooklyn industries. (shoulder bag that converts to back pack. i call it my jet-pack. cool + i am supporting local artists.) laughed a whole lot. finished wknd w/ pizza at gibraldis, which i am sure is spelled wrong, under the brooklyn bridge. got there just in time. when we left, there was a line 1/2 way round the block. all in all, a good time. love kat.

junk

Took a total digger this morning, ripped my pants, got stuck on a nail, bruised, but not bleeding somehow. It was pretty funny actually. (after my eyes stopped watering).
Friend lent me new book to read. Geek Love. Some of you have prob read.
Took longish lunch and talked about magnum p.i., etc. w/ him & boss.
Keep checking my leg, hoping that I have a dramatic looking bruise...I don't bruise very easily at all. (why?) Am starting to get a little something.! love, kate.

breaking the bank and asking for more

just scored bryan & wes tickets to red sox on thurs. Happy Birthday Bryan!
going to nyc for the weekend w/ sarah and chels. the damn met is getting 10 cents for cover charge so i can take a quick nap in the atrium before viewing the modern art section and maybe brunch on the roof? also looking forward to ny pizza, cuban bars, and real jewish deli. cruise some fav stores in soho and spend some $ in brooklyn at a hipster tee shirt store. home to a broke bank, full stomach, and a killer hoodie. that's all i ask for. amen. shalom.

*********************

ah, it is so warm out today. got a veg wrap & ate by the river in sharon. then drove for a bit & got lost. der. how the hell did that happen. i think i know the area by now. anyway, here is list of fun stuff to think about. (i love the whole list concept.)

• it is spring!
• i heard some different kind of birds. i don't know what they were, but they sure were happy!
• going to h&m on sat w/ jen, bella, & sarah.(sisters & neice) finally getting some clothes.
• going to nyc w/ chelsey next weekend. i want to have a picnic in the central park under one of the giant trees
• thought about treehouses today. that's always a fun time.
• tomorrow is friday!

okay, that's all she wrote today. love much.

"make love to the ground cuz it just feels better..."

(a little I MOTHER EARTH for you)
All you need is Love.

"you are nothing and everything..."

you took off your clothes to pay for a ticket out of here. you sold flowers to pay for your ticket home. you worked a desk job to pay the bills. you quit everything to live for today, and maybe tomorrow as well. so now what?

we invented post it notes!

(from romey & michelle's high school reunion. love that movie.)
busy day with work stupidness. here's a teneishaesque list of cool things about today.
1. wasn't as friggin cold
2. friend brought me a distortion pedal to eff around with
3. sarah brought me a bagel mmm
4. hmmmm, struggling here to find cool things about today. simpsons came in on our fuzzy tv. that is fun.
5. i will kill this post now before you fall asleep.
5 1/2. tomorrow is bound to be more eventful!

side note: sorry to bastardize the whole list concept. it just wasn't that exciting of a day is all.

my friends, my habits, my family...they mean so much to me...

NEW BOOK that you all so need to check out. (after time traveler...).
The Contortionist's Handbook by Craig Clevenger.
I now have a major crush on main charactor who is impossible to have since he's fictional obviously, but also because he is untouchable. Just google it and check out plot then read it please.

Feeling funny today. Walked in the woods for hours w/ mom & bryan. Looked for moose horns. (yay nh). ate sandwich and talked to a tree cuz it was there. ("wanta bite?") felt bitchy the whole time. i really wanted to be alone today. no particular reason other than that is what i prefer most of the time. alone is a good place to sort out thoughts and such. wanted to think about book i just read and make up a story. tomorrow.
love all of you round the earth several times + across the sun and moon and several stars and galaxies. that's a lot you know. i mean that absolutely.

they dug me my very own garden, gave me sunshine, made me happy...

that song (nice dream-radiohead) makes me think of being on different planet & the aliens take care of me. they just want me to be happy. they keep surprising me with things i love. gardens & honeybees & an old fashioned bicycle with the giant front tire. a pet giraffe that has a pet monkey. 15ft. rocking horse. a see-saw. nice italian wine. toast and egg salad. arugela. a rope swing. but i miss my friends. so they abduct them. we are all free to go whenever we want. just say the word. but we won't remember anything. we'll just know a bit of time has passed. we lost an hour that we can't account for, but really it was days.

New Post

Hi. Haven't got much to say. Just sick of looking at old post. Boring post, sorry.
Hey, if you could be an animal what would you be? I might try being a sea horse. (you can switch if you get sick of being an animal. you can even be chapstick or whatever)

a story i once wrote from the perspective of a lollipop

Lemon-Yellow Sun
(for Mona)

How did I get here? An hour ago, I was sitting comfortably in a row with all of my "friends". Luscious Lime, Chokeberry Cherry, Raspberry Rainbow. Raspberry said that no one was interested in me. I was nobody. Lemon flavored nothing in a sea of flavors that guaranteed to stain your tongue the color of a thousand rainbows. I thought about that. Raspberry had a point. They were what every kid wanted. Not me! Just because I’m the color of sunshine doesn’t mean I’m capable of making your day any brighter. So maybe yellow isn’t quite as exciting as the other colors– I couldn’t stain your mouth in an explosion of rainbows for example. I was beginning to feel like a real loser. That’s when she walked through the door.
La la la la la. Shiny black pigtails bouncing. White tea shirt smeared with the evidence of a decedent breakfast. Eggs benedict, orange juice, toast with marmalade. You know the type. The kind of girl that knows what she likes, and takes the task of choosing her edible fuel quite seriously. She pawed through a jar of multicolored jawbreakers before making her way over to me. ME! Finally, a kid who appreciates yellow. Life is good...or so I thought.
I can still feel my tiny, white leg pop when I think of the way she snatched me out of the rack with her dirty, sticky fingers. All hurt legs aside, she chose me. Me! Not Luscious Lime, not Chokeberry Cheery, and especially not that asshole Raspberry Rainbow. She wanted me, Lemon-Yellow-Sun.
Seconds later I was waiting patiently on the counter while she counted her nickels and dimes. I remember glancing over at Raspberry Rainbow with a shit-eating grin on my face. "Take your rainbow and..." before I could finish, I was carried away. Out the door we went, into the bright morning sun. She (black, pigtailed girl) jumped onto her bicycle and tore up School Street. Before turning left onto Grove, she stopped. With the grace of a ballerina on crack and carbs, she tore off my beautiful, crinkly, white, plastic dress...and tossed it to the ground where it landed in a puddle of last nights pale ale. Sweet. Thanks. Oh, it gets better. I said a quick goodbye to the blue, blue sky before her chubby, little hand jammed me into her juice-stained mouth.
We proceeded to ride up Grove Street. That’s when it happened. I was just getting used to being sucked into non-existence when suddenly, I was ripped from her lips and tossed, recklessly I might add, onto the sidewalk. I looked up at her, in shock. She looked back at me with her eyebrows furrowed. Her fat, little face distorted into the most unbecoming expression. "Yuck" was her famous last word before she sped off. The nasty, little, pigtailed, witch just threw me out like yesterdays paper.
Cars and trucks screamed past my tiny, little, half-sucked face.. A bicycle passed and crushed my only toe. As if it couldn’t get any more pathetic, a woman popped out of door from the house in front of me, led by a little, black dog in-a-hurry-to-pee...yeah, that’s right, lemon-yellow-sun was really living up to her name that day. Disgusting. Kill me now please!
As I lay there, wallowing in a mixture of misery and dog urine, I heard a bicycle approaching. It got closer and closer. A shadow suddenly blocked out all evidence of a sky. I lifted my little, yellow head. Starring back at me, was a girl. With shiny, black, pigtails. She was sucking on a lollipop. As she pulled it out of her mouth, she smiled. Her mouth was the color of a thousand rainbows. I thought, "That little bitch raspberry is gonna..."
To be Continued....

winter & hosehounds

so, winter has left me feeling like a fat hosehound. too much wine and pizza= tight pants. i want to start running. not on the road, but in the woods. i want to jump over logs and run through mud. most of all i want to look hot in a bikini again. goal for spring: get back into health.
ps: my sisters posts are friggen histarical. right on little sister.
here is a drunken shot of me w/ a bull whip around my neck. lesson learned: beer & whips don't mix unless you are a professional domonatrics artist. (sp?)
