weekend blather

as i write this
weekend
 is
 winding
 down
 the heat is ramping up
 ugh

 saturday 
i did some errands
 boredom drove me to take a walk 
even tho it was soupy muggy looking like rain

 i discovered theodore roosevelt park
 which is sort of behind the museum of natural history
 has an extension
 that dog legs
(which is funny not ha ha but ironic cause it contains a dog run)


 into 
a small plaza with umbrella tables



 and
 a green 'lawn'
 with pathetic sort of sprays of water

 i am thinking the water pressure was low 
otherwise
it really is a sad thing

 its just behind the rose planetarium


after that bit of a wander
 i headed home

 began a new book
 first in a trilogy
 what is it with me and books about forms of the apocalypse?
 this series
 is
by 
justin cronin
 called
 passage trilogy
 so far
 its really good
in between
  the stand
 toonman asked if it ended differently this time
 ha ha
and
 this
 i read the latest elly griffiths book
 about bone archeologist ruth galloway 

 i think i am done with them 
because
 they're becoming very predictable

sunday
 (actually today tho you're reading this tomorrow your today) 
was
 beautification
 nails


 nouveau red 
a sort of dusky red orange
 not
 very
summery
but i like it

then hair 
which needs a shaping badly
 i am now officially
 over wanting it short
 i am liking it longer 
i am so fickle 

what else?
 oh yes
i watched via netflix dvd
 paris j'taime
 it had subtitles
 i hate subtitles
 but
 it was mostly so charming
 i enjoyed it anyway
 my favorite vignettes 
were
 quartier latin: gena rowlands/ben gazzara
14e arrondissement: margo martindale
 and
pigalle: bob hoskins/fanny ardant

 i wished those had been longer
 i want to know more about those characters
 i recommend it to anyone who loves paris
 whether 
you've been there
 or 
not

so what were you up to this weekend?


none of the photos are signed, i was too lazy
