used to be

that i would sit here in Durham and look at my west coast flickr friends pages and watch my little movies quite sadly and sickly and miserably.

it isn't that way anymore.

i'm officially NOT homesick anymore.

i'm just home.

now if some of you would move or visit....

i haven't written since i wrote a little piece for a collaboration with a certain white male writer currently residing in the bay area but possibly not for long ... hello white male writer...

too busy with the work that feeds me.

happy halloween.

i have to go find bear dog a tutu and percy a scout's uniform by 5pm. they are very excited about sitting on the porch all dressed up and waiting for the neighborhood children.

maggie has been really feeling the PhD student thing. reading 900+ pages a week, presentations, papers.... it sounds pretty good to me.... but i see it is wearing on her.

she still wouldn't go back to waitressing, though.
