I started making coffee in the morning, something I’ve meant to do for a while; MS got me a coffee grinder for my birthday. I started making coffee in the morning, something I’ve meant to do for a while; MS got me a coffee grinder for my birthday.

Small Thoughts, Large Novelty Checks

I went to the Lower East Side tonight to see my dear friend JT read one of her stories in a contest (what an awful premise for a contest); didn’t realize until I arrived how long it’s been since I went down there. The only revelation was that the terrible condo buildings cropping up like cornstalks in Greenpoint/Williamsburg actually do not look out of place in the East Village or Lower East Side, for reasons that must relate to density.

Book people are more like theater people than they let on; that’s revelation number two, but I had it at home on my couch, so I’m not sure we should count that. I actually don’t like fiction readings much. With the exception of JT’s, that is! She won! A large novelty check!

Then M’OR and I had ethiopian food. It was tasty but afterwards I think we both wished we had gone to Mama’s, which was directlly across the street. My old roommate used to work at Mama’s, and the sight of it reminds me of that summer and lemonades and macaroni and cheese, the kind where the cheese sauce is thickened with flour then cut with milk.

up from the ashes

Full moon; high tide; Knifed + Spooned returns.

Stay tuned.
