today in poetry class the braless blondie girl was wearing stiletto boots, a chain-link belt, and a huge sticker that said “COLLEGE REPUBLICANS.”  oh yeah, and she was carrying a stuffed elephant.  please kill me.

i feel foggy and blurred, lately.  as a general rule i’m pretty sharp, coming to lots of conclusions, speculating, theorizing, wondering.  but recently i’ve just wandered around in a haze, not knowing what to think or what to say to anyone.  i feel kind of dumb, like flat soda in a plastic glow-in-the-dark cup that says “boddington’s pub ale,” with the chocolate syrup all settled to the bottom.

so where did my sharpness go, then?  did i leave it forgotten on a bench somewhere?  did i use it to mark my place in a book i sold?  did it fall off in my sleep and roll under the bed?  what?

also, the new front-of-hair color is pale blue.
