Goodbye Ink and Paper Vingt Sept

This is how I am feeling. Not just the picture, silly.
Lana Turner has collapsed!
I was trotting along and suddenly
it started raining and snowing
and you said it was hailing
but hailing hits you on the head
hard so it was really snowing and
raining and I was in such a hurry
to meet you but the traffic
was acting exactly like the sky
and suddenly I see a headline
LANA TURNER HAS COLLAPSED!
there is no snow in Hollywood
there is no rain in California
I have been to lots of parties
and acted perfectly disgraceful
but I never actually collapsed
oh Lana Turner we love you get up
by Frank O'Hara

Heat, like a dead weight
Still coverin' the street outside
So heavy that the dogs can't hide
In the hot, hot rays
Out on the sidewalk
It's a river where the children go
Out enjoying the arctic show
In the hot, hot rays
In the hot, hot rays
In the hot rays I get old
I could never know what the dead man sees
I could never know what the deaf man hears
Or know what the dead man fears
Even if you were incomplete
Brother let it go
And I'll find my way
If you want to know indian summer
I will make it back here to you somehow
What have you ever thought
Underneath the fire
Do my best to keep the heat at bay
Maybe that would make you want to stay
In the hot, hot rays
In the hot, hot rays
In the hot, hot rays .

I went shopping today. I bought florals. That means I am happy. I counted and the last twenty two articles of clothing I had bought prior to today were either black, dovegray, or beige solids.

I have a hunch that some good things may be happening, I haven't made up my mind yet though... The decision is mine. Which makes it all the more daunting.

    You bought florals today? How fab! We need to talk! And I need to see the new clothes. I can't wait until tomorrow when we have our movie night and eat junk food and talk. Because we haven't done that in forever...that is something good that is happening. ;)
