today the glitterbomber is... |
2003-06-01 today, i got new windows in my apartment. this is a monumental occasion. only three of the seven old windows would open and then even only partway and after great effort. it was worth getting up super-early today to have new, clean windows that work. it took my landlord and the guy who lives downstairs about five hours to replace six of the windows, so i guess that�s pretty fast. i did work and tried to stay out of the way. i found out some interesting gossip about my neighbors, though. friday night, there was an ambulance and two police cars on the next street over. i learned that it was because a little boy drank lighter fluid. i also discovered that my neighbor�s car was broken into, but he was led right to the house of the thief. apparently said thief wasn�t bright enough to realize that one should cover up one�s tracks if one is stealing things on a snowy day. had another lovely visit with my boy™ friday night/saturday. it was a short one this time, and it went by all too fast. on saturday, we decided to get indian food, then to the botanical gardens. luckily, it wasn�t a repeat of last week�s muddy hike; we were mostly indoors this time. the butterfly garden was open, too. i think i�ve gone to see it every year since i�ve been back in pittsburgh. we rounded out our excursion by getting homemade ice cream. it�s strange being here in my apartment by myself on a sunday. i haven�t been here alone on a weekend since the end of april. i almost can�t remember what i did to keep myself busy on weekends before i met the boy™. i�ve gotten used to having him around on weekends, and it�s too quiet when he�s not here. i find myself getting restless sometimes. maybe this means that i need a life. that could quite possibly be it. *** �i can tell you shop at ikea.� �my landlord *** np: happy mondays �kinky afro� |
