one day off

and it is today.

i am waiting for:

The Form of the City Changes Faster, Alas, than the Human Heart - Jacques Roubaud

as well as: this connection of everyone with lungs:poems -Juliana Spahr

and: the omnivore's dilemma by Michael Pollan.

these books are being mailed to me. it would be nice if they came TODAY.

and a brief note to my unemployed friends looking for temp work. last summer, before i started teaching, [maggie is watching soccer and screaming at the TV. *THIS* is usually MY role. i hope her team wins...] i was desperate for temp work and this place: TEMP got me an admin job at a non-profit before i even got home from my testing interview! the woman who helped me was Mari. check them out. if they have something, you'll get it.

word is michael "phillip the cracker" nicoloff and i should be starting a celiac blog. and i think we will. it will be great. we'll talk about food and our bodies and i will talk about nice things like dermatitis herpetiformis and how LUCKY i am.
