They had me writing Valentine's Day haiku for a thing at work. It's a little late (or way early), but go ahead and take a read.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
Valentine's Day is
kind of a weird holiday.
Sexy saint. Okay.
I don't like this day
any more than I like its
initials: V.D.
Flowers, chocolates, cards,
a fancy sit-down dinner.
No no no. Diamonds.
For someone who just
biked thirteen miles to see me,
you smell awfully nice.
This bar would be less
heartbreakingly depressing
if you weren't in it.
There's a tear in my
beer cause I'm crying for you dear....
Nah. I'm glad you're gone.
Why do birds sudden-
ly appear every time you
are near? Let's have sex.
You fart, you kick my
cat, your dad owes me money.
Will you marry me?
I remember how
you always frowned in your sleep.
I really miss you.
My one and only:
Sit with me, my beloved.
We have Syphillus.
We have herpes we
have herpes we have herpes
we still have herpes.
Scabies cookie.

things i like finding in pockets
Ten dollars.
Three dollars in change [ + ten dollars = 13 dollars! ].
Chapstick. CHERRY chapstick. Leads to singing. You know the song.
A Muji eraser I thought I lost.
Directions to a friend's going-away party. Happy/sad.
Did I mention ten dollars?
That's two fives.

happy earth day
So I've been biking to work for months. I can't remember when I started -- in the summer, for sure, but not every day. I think I started biking in every day in September or October.
But sometimes I have to work offsite. Usually in Santa Monica, so I can still bike there; I just have a longer bike ride at the end. Hey, I love biking, so this is a good thing.
Except for yesterday, when I biked to the office like usual, then got a call ten minutes after I was supposed to be at a sound edit, cursed my apologies into the phone, glared at my bike (poor Doug), and hailed a goddamned cab.
First time I've been in a car in weeks. On Earth Day. Neat.
Fuck the environment, I'm late.
