happy easter.

i ate enough halupki, brussel sprouts, deviled eggs, chocolate eggs and apple crumble to last me 'til next year. i decided go to to the park down the street from my granny's after dinner (like i did when i was little). i was shocked to find a new play structure and a different swing set. there were these two bobbing structures (one a motorcycle and the other a plane) that you would sit on, like an idle swing. they were made of wood and painted fun colours. those are gone. but replaced with this seat i thought was for parents to sit on and watch the kids play. but really it is slightly lopsided and it's like a carousel on crack. my stomach rumbled, i looked like i drank a mickey of rum. the night is done; reality bites and i lost my appetite (the ability to not feel nauseated) like when i was young..

not so desperate.

channeling; 60's wives. 
what i'm into this spring:

1)   blouses galore      2)   silk scarfs      3)  fancy skirts.  4) curlers!

scraps




bits and ends. photos i've never seen before; blown in by the coldwind

the yard.





what's not to like about a yard in spring?
the vibrancy of death; rebirth.

old junky treasures from last spring, summer, fall.

new york stories.


one to read, one to watch.  lovely things to comfort myself on a rainy day in.

c'est saul part one

I wanted to feature Saul Bellow. And in my spastic anticipation I planned to write a piece of great length on him for tonight. But I brushed with reality with the thought of my affair ending.  I don't want to write just one, but manymanymany! And so I shall.



oouuuu.

la forĂȘt

la rue, le forĂȘt, et ma maison


une adventure, solo.
