I’m a Magpie
1. I’ve find myself thinking that I should embroider me, Hope and Brian’s names onto napkins, each in colors appropriate to our personalities. 2. Days of the week have no meaning to me. I find myself wondering, why are people working today?? It’s Wednesday, for God’s sake. 2a. Oh, wait, it’s Monday. My bad. 3. Three bottles of wine seems like a decent amount for four people to drink with their dinner. On Monday. 4. How people have any money whatsoever is an absolute mystery, 5. A stranger starts a conversation on the street, and I am completely unable to string words together into a sentence. 6. Our freezer is full of soups, each recipe having required several hours’ preparation. Somehow, the day that we find ourselves in need of a quick, no-prep dinner never comes. 7. Planning a trip to the desert for my birthday, I momentarily have trouble understanding why Wednesday is a difficult day for people to make a ten hour drive. 8. This has nothing to do with the list, but there’s a meteor shower the night before my birthday this year. Y’all should totally check it out. |
I'm a library assistant, writer, and perpetual graduate student living in San Francisco. Special skills include dog charming, brochure writing, slapdash cooking and long-winded nattering. I also enjoy watching the sunset's reflection in the tall buildings downtown.
For a while there, I taught classes on Classical literature, philosophy, and the history of religion at New College of California. I have an MA and an MFA in Writing, and started library school in the fall of 2009.
