i must be brief as the park and friends beckon. yesterday i noticed a lot of red, my accidental portrait a la red tee, red hot wood at the grocery store, and red cherries for my magners cider. this felt like an extended repeat of wednesday night. off to the pub this time the local hurling(?) team had just played and had started to pass around the silver cauldron of mixed alchohol. the irish are drinkers, sang along with the live musician taking requests from the ladies and mixing in johnny cash, bob dylan, and emi lou harris (who i will see at gg park late summer). then we went out to san bruno to catch the end of a poker party at alex's house. the boys had vodka and white russians for the ladies. with the roommates staying on the couch alex and i drove back into the city to stay at my now empty place. it kinda felt like we dropped the kids off with the babysitters. i promised to not spend the whole day in bed so i am off to seek out some sun and sweat out the white russian. alex guessed my next art work will be of cookies and plants (with a cute accent) because they must be my favorite things. i had raspberry fig cookies next to my 30+ plants. i suppose that was a pretty accurate assumption. must go tonight they are showing the breakfast club at dolores park! i freaking love summer!
