present! *waves hand high in the air*
I am alive, I really am. Frankly, I’m more than alive lately – I’m on fire! heee!
haha.
Seriously.
Ali & I have an inside joke now from when she called me a few weeks back. I told her I was going to take a nap, and when called me and asked if I did, I shrieked, “No! I couldn’t sleep because my life is so awesome!” And it’s true. it really is.
See, we’d had an insanely fun night before (read: I should have been super tired, hungover & out of it the entire next day), but instead I felt great all day. And because we had yet another show that night, I thought I’d take a little disco nap to recharge. But turned out I was feeling so great that I couldn’t sleep!
I could go more into this… but I can’t right now. I actually wanted to instead fill this space with other random tidbits of my life, and I promise I’ll come back to this juicy life altering stuff later.
I finished Tender Bar and loved it so much, I was almost depressed when it was over. You know how that is? It was SOO good. I was like “what reason do I have to go to the gym now that it’s over!?” Luckily I borrowed Million Little Pieces from my workout buddy/neighbor, Annie, and therefore I’m revived (aka absorbed in another heart wrenching page turner). aaaaah.
Tonite I went into Green Apple Books for the first time. I KNOW! Can you believe it (Darren)?! I couldn’t either. How could that be possible? Well, I’m hardly over in that hood, so that might explain it. But tonite I ate at the oh so yummy Burma Superstar with my friend Kristin, and my car was conveniently parked just a few doors down from this lovely bookstore. I feasted at dinner, and then feasted again on all the eye candy shelves of books, books and more books.
I almost bought Diary (has anyone read that?), but only went home with Lucky. I figure, Christmas is coming. Well, that & honestly I know so many friends with stacks of books they’re prepared to lend me, I thought I’d exhaust those channels first. Anyway… it was nice to wander around a book store. Frankly I really haven’t done that in quite some time.
OK, I’m going to get off the computer now… but remember: Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life! :)

Woohoo! I love Green Apple!
If you’re ever on Clement during the day, stop by Parklife and get your art on.
p.s. You’re ALWAYS en fuego, ‘Lo!
I’m in the middle of Tender Bar. I’m enthralled.
awesome, Eric! My friend Dan just read it too & loved it. SUCH a great book!!
