what a lousy way to start the week.
my bus was late
so i missed my train
(after running up stairs to try to catch it.. FLAILING my arms about)
so i was already late to work
which is rather common on mondays for me
and THEN
i get on the subway
start reading again (tipping the velvet! wooo!)
and MISS MY SUBWAY STOP
end up in brooklyn
*whine*
i hate mondays.

i had a lovely weekend, tho.
lots of downtime
time with some good friends
drank lots of sake
toy shopping
blinky eyes
squeezey thighs
and tons of smooches!

Outside I can hear the fireworks
Beyond the paper walls
Where the symbols painted black and white
Run together when the rain falls
And the wind chimes across Kyoto
Each time the earth moves
Was it the quake that shook me
Or was it something to do with you

And the hot wind heats the bamboo blinds
And your almond eyes always shine
Sitting cool behind your painted fan
All the secrets of the east
Conceal the beauty and the beast
For tender is the man in her Japanese hands

Flesh on silk looks different
Than on a cotton sheet back home
Where no one wears their hair like yours
Beneath those oriental combs
And with your thirsty fingers
Running up and down my spine
You forget the western woman
When you're sleeping on Kyoto time

And the sky explodes
and the moon grows cold
To the distant sound of drums
And the sky explodes
And the moon grows cold
As the dragons on the mainland
Wait to heat the sun
-Elton John
