Writing Again!

I finished writing a play this week! It's entitled
The End of the World as We Know It and a Plum: A Love Story

I think it's as strong as my previous plays, which include:

Happy: The Story of Sad

Tin Dreams in the Age of Titanium With Nothing but Light Beer to Drown Them

"Jarmpa": The Squirming Nonsensical Sound of a Heart Breaking

Wearing Something That Hurts and Jumping Into a Pool Full of Nothing: The Story of the First Gulf War

The Comfort of Being Blind in the Dark

Anyway, I was thinking of posting a couple of them, but they have an awful lot of curse words. I'll have to think about it. Talk to you soon!

bored bored bored
sorry i haven't written lately. my camera's in the shop. so, what have i been up to? well, to be honest, i've been bored. yesterday, i sampled every kind of aspirin we have (we have three kinds, i found out), drank wine straight from the microwave (not recommended), and hid in Chestnut's closet and waited for him to get home so I could scare the crap out of him. i ended up falling asleep in his laundry hamper and now i smell like socks.

Tumble's Home!

Tumble returned home today after a week-long trip to St. Louis! He brought me back a coffee mug (yes!) and pictures, most of which were blurry and taken at night.
Chestnut headed out for the night with his girlfriend, and Tumble and I settled in for a long night of existential torpor.

lazy sunday
chestnut and i sat on the balcony and watched the sun set behind the giant apartment complex behind us.

i found some seeds had fallen from the bird feeder and sprouted in some standing water in the air conditioner.

i showed chestnut, but he was busy yelling at the guys at the pool to stop "woooo"ing at the top of their lungs every time they threw a girl in. they'd been at it since noon.

news from the road
tumble is out of town for the week. he called me from the road to tell me he shaved his head.

i can't say i expected that. i asked him if he was bringing home a present, but then some guy outside the phone booth started yelling at him to get off the phone, so tumble had to go.

the guy sounded a lot like tumble.

hello
looks like everything is up and running. yesterday, chestnut gave me a digital camera for what he calls "un-christmas," and i've been testing it out.
