yes, it snowed again


well
 it
 snowed
 again
 yesterday

 a dusting
 a shower
 a
 wet
 cold
 day
 for those
 who marched
 in
 this year's
 st patrick's day parade

 maybe
 it snowed
 on them
 because
 the parade
 was
 held
 on
 march 16
 not
 march 17

 there's a half marathon
 i am not running
 tomorrow

 i went for a massage 
over on the eastside
 on madison avenue
 it was a 9:45 appointment
 the buses
 were still running crosstown at that point
 but 
at 11:30 
when i left the spa
 totally relaxed
 the streets were all closed off 
the only way
 to get
 crosstown
 was
 via 86th street
 i figured this would happen
 i would have walked uptown
 but
 after my massage
 i stopped
 to get a glass of water
 the pre/post massage room
 is
 very zen
 comfy chairs
 low tables
 a large table
holds 
water, tea, cups
 on its lower shelf
 two huge pieces
 of
 driftwood
 lie

 i didnt notice
part of the wood
 sticking out
 and
 walked
 right
 into
 it

 it really hurt
 really
 really
 hurt 

my fipflop clad foot
 seemed
 unmarked
 so
 i had my glass of water
 changed
 left
 and 
stopped at a boutique
 called
 sandro
a new
 new york 
addition
 from 
paris

 coincidence?

anyway
 i got back
 to the westside 
popped into zabars
 and
then
 walked home
 thinking
 my foot really hurts

 upon inspection
 i found
 i can 
wiggle and bend
 my toes
 however
 the middle toe
 is
 swollen and turning colors

 i am still thinking
 its not broken
 or 
surely
 i wouldnt be able to move it

 i refuse
 to believe
 it might be broken
 refuse

 in 16 days
 i am going
 to be
 walking
 around paris
 i will not
 be dealing
 with
 a
 well i am not going to say it

 its just a bad bruise

 i hope i can wear shoes
 .. gah ... 

that photo
 is from
 the snow 
before this
 but
 the photo has a green cast
 i thought it would be apropos for st patrick's day
 tho
 now
 i am thinking
 a photo of my colorful toe 
would have sufficed
