i need to stop eating so much garlic because today in yoga i smelled like the gilroy garlic festival which i have never even been to. i like going to yoga because it makes the rest of my day, the hours between 6:15 and 11 pm, mildly more productive. after yoga tonight i made dinner, worked on a story, talked to my grandma on the phone and now, check it, blogging. still on the list: shower, dishes, deal with insurance (for some reason i was put in the castro valley region and that is a town far far away from where i live). i am meeting a new person who will be living with me tomorrow. today at work i felt a little like a cathy cartoon because it was monday and i felt very ugly and garlicky and then i went to yoga and the cathy cartoon feeling was expelled. and i have accomplished things today! even at lunch i accomplished a few things like: make lunch, talk to brother, CLEAN BATHROOM SINK (100 points to me). so now i am catching up on mad men and trueblood guilt free. tomorrow i sadly cannot go to yoga but the reason is happy: i am getting a free bike! a ten-speed. apparently the tires might be flat but it is otherwise in good condition. sounds perfect for tooling around the miss (pronounced “mish”, short for “mission”).
i was thinking in yoga that when i blog i don’t give details, like SMELL and SOUND and TASTE and HOW THINGS LOOKED, like i do in stories and i was thinking how this is barely writing. but then it occurred to me that i myself read differently on the internet (wouldn’t it be easier to say “web”–too bad that sounds so lame nowadays). on the internet i skim for the FACTS. in a book i want to get lost in a world. the internet, no time. so here i am, giving you the facts. the bullet points of my day. for you to be entertained, so you feel like you know me and so i feel like you know me and we have a relationship. low-commitment non-loneliness machine. lizzyacker.com: the low-commitment, non-loneliness machine. i’m stealing the idea of slogans from uhh yeah dude. deal with it. i’m a stealer.
anyway, enough is enough. what is happening with sookie?! later my friends. i love you. goodnight.
Lizzy Acker!
