what if people all looked the same?

I want brick red nail polish and I want a new tattoo. I want not to care about nail polish or tattoos. I decided recently that I want a nose ring, too, but glasses combined with a nose ring might be too much decoration. Also who gets their first facial piercing at 27? I’m turning 27 in one month. My brother is getting married in two months and I think I should wait for tattoos or facial piercings. I’m worried about my eyes but I don’t have health insurance so I’ll wait. I have sprouts coming up and nowhere reasonable to put them. I am trying to be doing what I want to be doing but I always accidentally am working too much and living where I have said I don’t want to be living for three of the four years I’ve lived here. There was a period of perfect harmony in the middle though, I should give credit to that. The jobs we work make us too busy and tired to do the things we are working to live to do. People are leaving and I haven’t made any effort to meet the people who are replacing them. I’m ordering a colony of bees tomorrow and they will live in Manayunk, a place I have made fun of for three of the four years I’ve lived here. How do I move a colony of bees to New Orleans? I bet they’d like it there. I don’t know if I would or not. Or maybe Argentina, after all. I need to take a trip soon, my limbs are itching for movement.

Were you by any chance at the Philly Museum of Art last Saturday night?

hmm i just saw this now and i don’t know when you asked me, but I don’t think I have been to the PMA on a Saturday night in a very long time. Two Wednesday nights ago, though!

“We were the teens in unproductive pain. We were the girls who cried at parties and passed out under the stairs. We were lovely in daylight. We drank Cokes in our tennis clothes. We rode boats with boys in windbreakers. We ate stale sandwiches. We hummed popular melodies; they gave our lives a deeper meaning. We tanned nicely; no one knew it was bad. After dark, we ran our parents’ cars into trees, then went home and lied about it. We ate black-eyed peas in the morning. For luck, and we needed it.

To this day, we remain girlish. We have never driven a bulldozer or a forklift. We cry over Band-Aid commercials. We dye our hair. (We dye it white.) And yes, the sweeping history of Latin America is still mysterious. We are ignorant of it. We have much to learn, but we’re no longer teachable.”
