i spent the afternoon working on my comps lists (168 books! too many), although to do so at this point is not necessary and i should be working on a seminar paper/presentation. i thought for awhile about getting an ebook reader but then the library is free. so. i went out and had a molasses sundae. |

back home from jen's party... i saw a doll, a folk singer attacked by coyotes, a coyote, a basketball player, a green creature, a koala bear, a girl with a bird on her head, a raver and some various others. i brought braxton back cookies (he had to stay home to work on his 'on the market' sundry stuffs) & now to watch dark shadows episode #210 - finally barnabas collins appears! happy halloween everyone! |

maybe i will take the train (california zephyr) back from los angeles in december. 40 hours! we did it before, from la to seattle, but this time i'd be by myself, unless braxton decides to come to ca instead of going to minnesota. the train might be fun, tho, & pretty, & is only $50 more than a plane ticket. |

i went to whole foods to get stuff for making chili tonight & a basmati rice/red lentil soup tomorrow, and when i was waiting for the bus to come back home i kept thinking everything smelled like dog shit and trying to hold my breath. then when i got off the bus near our house the world still smelled like shit. there is a wind coming from a certain direction; it is the stockyards. i haven't ever seen them but there must be a horde of cattle, to smell so bad.

we need to go get pumpkins still... i miss the east coast & the beautiful apple orchard with the tiny graveyard in the midst of it, where we got our pumpkins when we lived in providence. i don't know anywhere in denver to get pumpkins that's like that. even in ca. the pumpkin patch was magic, pumpkins swooping between citrus trees near the sea.

this year i'm going to be a pioneer girl with a fox mask. were-pioneer?

this, someday soon. otherwise, computing. impressed by snow. i wore my fur coat and braxton said i looked like a teddy bear wandering the neighborhood (+ dome umbrella) when i left for the bus stop. i will try to watch some dark shadows now, suck a few cups of tea. the cat is slightly damp. |

butternut squash soup. i was going to draw a face on the squash and dub it 'sammy chan junior' and send a photo to marc & yuri, but i peeled it before i recalled we'd wanted to do that. so it is roasting in the oven now with an onion, garlic and carrots. i ought to start making braxton's halloween shirt (we're going to be be pioneers in wolf/fox masks) & email a professor re: a seminar paper topic... it is cold out & cozy here. |

tomorrow to the mountains. yesterday we went to black & read & i shopped at goodwill while braxton browsed records. i got a couch (i hate the one we've had all year, this one is cuter) & ski gloves to replace the ones i lost when we went skiing in march. then he dropped me off in boulder to meet christine, joanna & corrine for christian bok's reading at the cu campus. he was wonderful. here is a video of him performing the aria of the three horned enemy from an opera called 'princess of the stars' whilst inside a large puppet upon the prow of a canoe upon a remote lake in northern canada, to which the audience had to backpack. i read parts of eunoia on google books last night; it is surprisingly narrative.
my laptop will be here wednesday and then i will be functioning again. |

i got this book & i am excited.

visit birdsoflace to get one.
i also got this game, & when my laptop comes i'll be able to play it.

otherwise, coiling in a sweater, drowning in tea, reading loving with a vengeance, feeling drifty and wishing my laptop wld come now. and then sometimes i look at guerlain lipstick, and yesterday i made yam soup by roasting 4 yams and then pureeing them with 2 c milk and 1.5 c stock and 2 tblspns of coriander. it was sweet, and warm. also yesterday, an update http://persephassa.com and more to come, but now i think i will take a moment away. |

there is snow all over everyone's roof, up & down the street. when i woke up, it was there.
my laptop is busted so it is hard to do anything. i'm using braxton's desktop but i'm not used to it. a new laptop will come in some days.
i have gravenstein apple juice & cinnamon sticks. it is winter i guess. i have my red thermals on and the heat is on and the cats are sleeping. |
