Numbers, please
Jul. 12th, 2004 08:33 pm1) I've been negligent in my posting, really negligent in my replying, and really, really negligent in my friends' list perusing. My apologies on all counts, friends. I promise I'll do better.
2) Adventure Saturday: Anna and I went down to Saratoga and watched theutterly pretty passersby nightlife. Highlight was the busking drum circle out on Broadway just wailing away, while various hippies and tourists gazed on; one girl, who couldn't have been more than 13, succeeded in mesmerizing everyone by dancing barefoot on the sidewalk, uninhibitedly and extraordinarily well. (The musicians ended up thanking her.) Oh, and we decided to make spectacles of ourselves by singing every dirty folk song we could think of at the tops of our lungs for all the drunks. A grand time.
3) Adventure Sunday: We tooled down to Schenectady to hang out with Anna's family, thus enabling me to meet a whole wing of her clan, her aunt, uncle and three male cousins. Her aunt is a sweetheart, her uncle a grand and earthy storyteller, and her cousins a tight-knit boys' club who cornered me into playing Halo and ate pizza like it was the Secret to Eternal Life (which, to boys ranging from 13 to 20, it pretty much is). It was at their luxury camper that I learned that, yes, there is such a thing as Scotch whiskey envy.
4) We're getting a kitten. Yes, a kitten. It's a calico female belonging to a coworker of mine, said to be sweet-tempered and tactile, and soon to become the most spoiled subsentient creature on this mortal coil, as is its birthright. All hail and genuflect before the Eternal Cute!
