I went to one of the coolest bars in Denver recently, never been. I absolutely loved it. I don’t want to say it was my favorite bar here because there are so many I haven’t been to but it might just be my favorite place.
Such a great space, interesting layout, all dark and moody and filled with weird old shit and lots of plants. It’s feels like it’s kind of in a house, I don’t know. Anyway it was super cool and I can’t wait to go back. We went on a special once-a-month live music night called modular synth or something like that it was fun.
Now let’s admire my cute sweet perfect cozy little ginger
And this beautiful sunset at work the other night.
And of course the sauna at my gym.
These geese flying over a lake I love near the library.
And the paper stars I folded for a lucky wish star jar.
Today was perfect. Just perfect. I want to relive this day over and over again and I will, in my head, until I’m dead.
I’m not going to go into detail because it was for me and only me but just know… it was perfect.
I’ve started a new playlist. Hot heaux summer was slamming but it ended and I need to move on. So I tried to fall into grace and I was slightly successful but I mostly just failed. grace is not a friend of mine.
But anyway now I’m doing my winter wound. It might turn out to be my best one yet.
Okay I have to show one of the gifts he gave me. Okay two. Okay three.
My gorgeous bruins centennial winter hat and my snoopy Socks with Ginger’s face all over them.
And look how lovely.
Doesn’t the cloud in the middle look like an AT-AT.
I’ve recently reconnected with an old friend and I’m so very happy about it. It has been such a delight. He’s doing well and seems happy, which makes me happy.
Plus, he’s been sending me new music that I have not heard before, which I’m adding to my new seasonal Spotify playlist that I’ve cleverly called “winter wound”. The music is great, because his taste in music is sublime, and he makes me laugh and he’s clever beyond words and he just makes the world a better more interesting place to be in. When he’s around.
Anyway, I was the one who reached out to him. It felt like the right time and I’m grateful he was receptive. He’s one of my most favorite people in the entire universe and my life is instantly improved with him in it.
So yay for old friends and new discoveries.
Tomorrow I’m finally exchanging gifts with you know who. My friends have taken to calling him Voldemort. we’ll see if something comes up, if he suddenly gets sick or has another commitment, or the pope is coming to visit him, or he has to fix his broken dishwasher, or something equally true and valid.
My presents to him are pretty good. there is a nice mix of thoughtful, homemade, humorous, useful and edible, with a bit of Christa dust sprinkled in. I thought about pushing the boundaries with this gift but then I decided that I’ve humiliated myself enough to last us both several lifetimes and maybe I can just cool the fuck down and be normal.
Well I can never be normal but I can play it cool. So! My new goal is to find patience and settle in for the long game. I think I can do it.
Also go see American fiction immediately.
Also I’m super into this new band, brigitte calls me baby.
also no one in the universe seems to know where the flying fuck my crashed up juke is and I have decided to hire a lawyer because things are getting very messy and complicated and no one is on my side and none of this was my fault and I just need someone to look out for me for once. I’m not playing around anymore.
This is the face of someone NOT PLAYING AROUND ANYMORE.
