Blue! That's calm and happy right? Or is that green? Whatever calm and happy is. I'm off to take the kid and her cousin to the park. Then tonight we're headed to the drive-in. Woo hoo! I love the drive-in. Except that, with the kid in tow, the mister and I can't make out.
jrossi4r: The drive-in... How great... my father used to pull up in his boat of a Cadillac with bags of snacks and let me pick a bunch of fellow rugrats to come with him and me and my mother to the drive-in, back when there were drive-ins in Connecticut. We'd sit on the roof of the car and watch the giant screen. Then, he'd give us all money for the concession (so he and my mother could be alone), and we'd all sit out on the swings licking the sides of ice cream sandwiches and watching the movie without sound.
Once he took us to an X-rated movie by mistake; something with nude ballet.
I hear there's a drive-in motel in Vermont; I'd definitely like to check that out. You can watch the movie from your room.
whatever color a terrible headache is. I'm thinking kind of a nasty yellow-ish green.
For reals, I woke up at 5am with a pounding headache. Most definitely not alcohol related because I drank nothing harder than fruit juice last night. I'm thinking it's because I went for a long-ish run and maybe didn't rehydrate well enough. *grumbles*
/* NOT channeling King Crimson, and shame on you for thinking it.
To begin at the beginning: it is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobble streets silent and the hunched, courters'-and-rabbits' wood limping invisible down to the sloe black, slow, black, crow black fishing boat-bobbing sea. [...] And all the people of the lulled and dumbfounded town are sleeping now.
Whatever color is ecstatic. I wrote a story that is getting good feedback, and I just sold two other pieces of furniture, and last night I had sex. It is sunny and beautiful outside, and my life is working out just fine.
Hungover again. That's kind of a hot dog orange, I think. Or maybe green, but then I really like that particular mood ring shade of green that's supposed to mean you're disgruntled & I always wanted nail polish that color.
I'm in a good mood today, but everything at the moment is overshadowed by the surgery I'm having next week - mostly because of the uncertainty of what they might find. I'm mostly sure that it'll all be ok, but still can't help worrying a little bit.
I'm whatever colour one generates when you know you don't have to be at work for the next three weeks. I'm thinking... lavender. With a hint of minty goodness.
