Keith Haring. 1984
same old same old nothing new here to report
forty hours weekly weakens me forties on the weekends help refuel
i remember mornings just before winter when we were eighteen years old somehow new england held a sense of adventure crisp in the thin air tip of your nose and worn boots cracked concrete slab stomping forward cigarette smoke and the illusion of control was enough at that age so we let go of our past indecision and held each other crying for the first time since we were children and listened for once
and i remember sleeping at all the wrong hours missing meals and memories and dreaming of sleeping longer and roaming alone after midnight with squeaky bones unoiled and stoned and it snowed but slowly so flakes just floating glowed orange like fires and stories unraveled in a sleep-deprived mind because eyes like those deserve their own foot-notes
and now i’m just laying four-thirty the morning the living room couch and the door to the bedroom just dampens the sounds of loud gentle music and i try to forget the crisp smoke adventures and late night snow fires and crying like children just block out the sounds and try to roll over we’ve grown apart now and we’re all growing older i’m gone

the new ‘Girls’ album is very good. I’ve also been listening to the old one a lot. I especially like the line where he’s like “they don’t like my bony body” because I think I can relate.
I had a tooth out. I didn’t need it anyways, I’m wise enough. They said I have gingivitis. Damn gingers… I knew I shoulda stayed away.
I can’t afford all this damn dental shit. Not to be confused with dental dam shit.
Also found out that I can’t move into my dream apartment with that guy Jim until November 13, but I still have to move out of here by November 1. Who’s got a couch? I might need to be on it.
last night i was overcome with a quiet confidence. but then i started making noise. i want to live every day like that.
So I’ve been looking for a place for a while now. Really not too interested in living in Framingham, and Dorchester/anywhere south of Boston is just too far a commute to Westborough. Somerville is still an option but kind of out of the way… Allston is just too congested to be driving in and out every day, and parking is way too much of a pain there. I think Brighton makes sense. Specifically west Brighton, near Oak Square. It’s prices, proximity to the Mass Pike, and ease of free street-parking are really appealing to me. And (thank God) my schedule is so abnormal that I won’t be commuting during regular commute hours. I’ll drive to work around noon and drive home after 10.
Seems things may come together after all.
