on my lunch i went searching for bagels at the market. no luck, but i did spend an obscene amount of money at a mexican folk-art shop. i fell in love with the milagros (spanish for miracle?) -- tokens representing the subject of a prayer or petition to a saint. the ones i got were little silver-coated shapes made of tin representing love and strength. i felt kinda dumb and fake buying them (shouldn't they be crafted by the petitioner?) but i couldn't help myself. i couldn't resist the la anima sola effigy, either. i also got, for larry, a little painted paper-mache & clay skeleton-dude in a boat playing a guitar for a little skeleton-christine who's smoking a cigarette and drinking a beer. so rad. *so* christine and larry.
anyway. pleasantly bored. vaguely looking forward to the trip south in 2 weeks. i don't remember the cold affecting me this much before. and i haven't been out of the state in... oh my god, like almost 5 years. what a freak. i should just put money down on a pre-built, mount a gun-rack, and get it over with.
sigh. pleasantly bored. pleasantly hopeless. i'm in my shawnee mode and i am enjoying it.
but you meant goodbye
now our love has died
this is why i cry
all-time quarterback
