6. pictures and links and ten things i thought
1. this is how I am painting my bathroom; this is how I’m painting my best friend
2. the other night Jay played “the geese of beverly road” &now I’ve been listening to it on repeat. I played it for Bailey too. We listened to it together. An activity normally saved only for Jackson Davis who I would not listen to music with tonight (mortal sin). But yeah ugh this song. It is gonna penetrate my dreams, I’m telling you.
3. Jayme and I cleaned the apartment for hourssss. Live alone! live alone! Yellow kitchens! make up your life! I am having fun with this.
4. The other day Blair and I played Lindsay and Samantha and acted out their last stand. I mean made up by us. Blair next time you can be Lindsay or whatever lipstick lesbian you want. But yeah, going to the park with two toddlers and two dogs is actually very exhausting. The highlight being when Maggie was trying to act like me and laid face down on the pavement as if she was swimming on the ground kicking and screaming hysterically.
Everything is once again within a four block radius. On all sides, baby, all sides.
5. Today was Joffre’s birthday. I am particularly fond of Joffree not just because of his girlfriend Lydia but because of their height. This may mean nothing to you, but it means something to me.
6. It is 2 AM but we cleaned for hours and now I have energy so I will just try and keep on writing papers. I asked Jax a bunch of questions about William T. Sherman (Bill Compton anyone, no? yes?) but I think I’ll read the memoirs. Also for another class we had to read <i>Soul Mountain</i> and ugh it was real good.
It kills me though— you know this— translation kills me. Remember when I had to learn Russian when I was just going to fall in front of a train if I didn’t learn Russian because I needed to know what the authors really meant?
I remember being sixteen reading on my grandmother’s front porch. In the summer in Cleveland and God who did I miss? Probably Mikey Turner. Probably in the summer. And I realized I couldn’t read Russian and I realized no matter how well the translation was translated, damn, I don’t know how this was really written. I don’t remember what I was reading but I remember that everything changed.
I never learned Russian but it still kills me. I don’t understand why we had to get rid of Latin.
did ya make it a movie?! did ya make it a movement?!
7. I am going to Panama on June 6th. I know I know remember “Panama Never Again” party circa 2005? Whoops! I gotta go. 
8. I was pleasantly surprised with the <i>Grey Gardens</i> HBO movie version. I will have to make a different post about it
9. I like the new Conor Oberst (surprise) I like Cabbage Town. I’m gonna love you like the new southhh.
10. I have photographs, I will share them.
