today i feel like a big fat turd..
its cooler out than it was yesterday at least..
so i can wear my navy silk dress with my navy t-strap ferragamo shoes that i found at a thrift store this weekend.. i was stoked! my foots asleep.. fuck i hate that..
yesterday i spent in bed with my best friend..
we watched Thrashin and made dip to eat with califlower and carrots.. and turkey sandwiches.. she was also vegetarian until i stopped.. and convinced her to stop also..
i walked past a restaurant the other day that spelled vegetarian: vegatarian.. i love it when people misspell on signs.. i think its the funniest thing..
when i leave philadelphia next month im going to miss seeing places like Ho's chinese restaurant in ghetto south philly.. im going to miss seeing crackheads in north philly sweeping the sidewalk when its windy and trash is blowing everywhere anyway.. ill miss crackheads doing the crackhead walk.. and talk..
im going to miss stepping over bums sleeping on sewer grates.. ill miss catching people pissing on my stoop and yelling shit at them.. and pissing on the apartment complex across the street.. and the alley across the street.. ill miss the smell of hot piss and beer and trash in the morning.. wafting in through my windows when they are open..
ill miss citywide specials at bars..
1 can pbr + 1 shot of jim beam: $3
i will miss people saying..
"use guys"
"are use going to meet us later?"
"use gotta pay at the register hun"
ill miss drug dealers hitting on me by saying..
"you better drop that chicken dinner and get with a winner cause you know the dark meat tastes better"
i cant believe that ive lived here for five years..
and to think when i first moved here i looked like this:

My friend just came back from driving all over the US for 3 months, she is packing her stuff and moving to Olympia Washington. She did say that Philly is still her favorite place, she needs a change of scenery for a while. Philly is one of those places that calls you back. So best of luck, the crackheads will still be here when you get back, Bob and Barbaras will still have $3 specials, Mike may be there still. I will have my own business up and running by then. So Y'all come back now, ya hear!
XOXO-B
PBR? aaawww, reminds me of dad!
