then we will both be transient bums on xmas. i'll be here in ABQ curled up in bed with my dog, freezing my ass off, and lamenting the pomp and circumstance and the expectation for happiness and warmth that goes hand in hand with this wretched time of year. no, really. it'll be fun! i've damn near perfected my recipe for bourbon-spiked, hot apple cider. when you can't have family you better have booze.
i hope your ma takes the news alright and understands.

hey your not dead!!! And I'm not dead!!! we are both of the undead persuasion...............I think an email is in order, so I will send you one....later but soon.
a series of events that concludes w/ death.... the events preceding death are what makes life want it is.... the events of the past couple weeks, will certainly fill a chapter...

yay! glad you found it.
i've got my special ring, too. never take it off, even have a tan line form it. you know the one, with turquoise and coral that belonged to my grandmother.
so good to talk to you last night. even if i was two sheets to the wind.
My cat.
Just like the one before him, Twine, I took him everywhere with me. He was my brother's and I stole him and when my mom kicked my 17 year old ass out I took him to my dad's. Then one day someone let him out.. and he got eaten by a coyote. I was already depressed about living on a cot in a pink laundry room transformed into my grade 12 bedroom, then the universe had to go take the one thing I really loved. I went almost 2 years after that without a cat until my dad found Oskar in the alley behind The Columbia in Gastown. I called him my own, the vet estimated his age at 1-2 years and when I really think about it... I like to believe he's the reincarnate of Twine. They are so similar even other people have commented on it. After only two months of owning him I took him to Alberta where, because of the circumstances, he had to stay with strangers for 6 months and I'd only see him once a week, then I had him back for 4 months until I decided to go home. He got out 2 days before I was suppose to leave Alberta and I was drunk and crying because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to leave Alberta, cause I wouldn't leave without him. He is what makes me think that there is something better out there. And when I moved downtown and my roomate(s) let him out countless occasions, like the time I ran home from the Cambie in tears to find him, he always came back. And when I took off to South America for a month I left him with my mom, then she kicked him out and I had no where to live never mind with my cat, my dad took him for 3 months, and now he's back with me where he belongs. And I'm going to go cry myself to sleep with him yet again, these rainstorm migraines are going to kill me.
oh and ps, i nanny too, kids pretty chill, we just play star wars on xbox then read books. i get to be a kid again, and get paid for it. wooot wooot
