merry christmas cards

“Do you ever get tired of indulging me?”

I did the easy part of drawing a Christmas postcard. He was doing the hard part of making copies at Kinkos. He was changing the paper and pressing the buttons and doing the set-up and making sure the sides lined up and talking to the guy and fixing things when the machine started vastly overcharging my credit card. I kept asking if we could just leave.

I probably should have signed those cards from both of us.

some days are really hard

If I were a skirt, my mom would say I’d be fine with a slip.

I’m worn thin today.

It’s only 7:58 a.m. It’s only time for the shop keepers to water-hose the sidewalk. I’m already going to be late.

If you leave a rubber band in the sun, it will crumble.

I’m already ready for Christmas. It’s only Tuesday. It’s only October.

I think I could sleep anywhere.

My elbows hurt.

And nice slips are so hard to find these days.
