Update

Well I'm back to school in Chicago, working at Thousand Waves and feeling pretty good about all the rest. 

My Voice lesson went so well today

I've been making big decisions lately. Uh Oh

Lately

Blah Blah Blah

I really don't like this stuff, do I?

My father sails boats

the way we were

I walked with dancers in my eyes and trumpets in my belly.
thinly sheltered by my skin
an energy that both seperated and connected me
you might have understood but I assumed you didn't .
I rubbed this assumption into my skin.
Its was an enjoyably irritation
a cozy despair
I rubbed away at my skin and then I said to myself, look how it turns red. look.

Andy took this

some of these words smell good some of them don't

Lay that here, I lat that there
It's wieght and health and breath
The word that falls in you deep well
will float with me below it
It's a story, It's a sadness
lets wait, anticipate progress
Sensation sweet, your arms will meet
I just can't help this dress
Press its sleeve, the fold will leave
if you tell me more than twice
Smell is strong, my legs are long
I'll follow you to move

Gold Crowns

its all about a little humiliation and the choice to do better next time

Its raining out

Hmmmm, I have been moving slowly lately.
The world feels like the inside of my Grandma's Gazebo. I am walking through musty time with carefully placed moments, smelling like imagination and used beach towels.
I decorate the walls but don't look out the windows.

I drive a rolls royce cause its good for my voice

We three are going to be having a house warming party on Saturday the 26th
We love to dance and show off our decorating talents, stop by and feel good.
call me if you need directions, em

parting note,
I need new music.

Lots of Laundry at work today

sitting in the room where things are kept quiet with noise, Emily smells somthing funny

Frog and Toad down by the bay

We love to sit and sip and see

MY DAY

I woke up this morning and stayed in bed an hour to finnish the book I was too tired to finnish last night, After I was done I lingered in my bed a while, I had recently bought new sheets and just put them on last night without washing them first and was enjoying the new plasticky smell of them. I tried unpacking those last two boxes that I've been putting off for a month but when i found the scarf I had been missing inside one of them, I got distracted and started playing around. Then I decided that I wanted to meet people right then, so I put on all my rings, which felt wonderfully strange because I haven't worn them in forever, and I went to this coffee shop around the corner that I hadn't been to yet because its cash only and I barely ever have cash. As soon as i walked in though I realized that a coffee shop is the worst place to try and meet new people, everyone was independently absorbed in there own things. But I always feel awkward going into a place without getting something so I got some ice cream because to be honest I don't really drink coffee. I sat in the corner eating my ice cream and watching the people around me who weren't really there, people in their books, magazines, work, phone calls. I was entertained but I didn't connect to my surroundings like I wanted to. So I decided to just do my usual city talking and go junking. Its a great week for Junking because everyone just moved or they are in the process of moving so there's tones of interesting things to be found in the alleys. I walked around a lot, it was really sunny and all my rings were shining and hot, I loved that. I found some really great pieces of chair that are exactly what I was looking for for a new project I'm thinking about. eventually I found myself back at home and eating lunch. It's kind of my day off today and sometimes I don't really know what to do with myself on days like these when i can't really get into a project or there isn't someone to go and find. a little later ash came home and we hugged and she agreed that the smell of my sheets was pleasant. But she had to go right away to meet mallory for BLTs so I just snuggled back into the newness of my bed and got to know my sheets a little better. When I woke up I still had an hour before I had to take the bus to get up to Andersonville to babysit so I decided to try and find Lakeview art supply so that I could get some of the stuff I want for the chair thing. But after asking at least five people if they knew where it was I found out it was a little too west to be going and getting back to the bus on time so instead I went into one of my favorite used book stores and tried to find something with character. don't you feel that? that used book stores are just filled with hundreds of dusty old characters? I looked around for a long time and finally settled on a book that I think I already have but i just really loved the feel of this copy. Anyways then I got on the bus and now I am here, the kids are asleep and I am using their computer because we don't have internet. I think i wrote all this down because today was a day that I was really inside my head you know? and all day I just had kind of this narrator track going on like a two minute delay reciting all that I had done, I just had to get it out of there you know?

see ya

me and the smaller one

Travels

Ash and I are heading home tomorrow. We will be in ER until Wednesday, see you there!

Oh you know, I got a hair cut

For My Mother,

Pictures of my New Place

see sea

I am looking to find things lately if you know what I mean. Dizzy from the sugar, I am really looking about myself. It's easier to know the full value of the red of your t-shirt that way. I can see all the light in it, you know?

Some naratives I've neglected

Pressing her body to the cool west facing wall of her bedroom

Emily seeks reaction

If only there was someone to push back.

Atop a row of comfortably similar condos

She rolls from one roof to the next
taking great pleasure in the gritty scrapes the sun soaked shingles leave on her body

with each slump and roll
she thinks,
To feel is to love.

She feels her anticipation in warm sacks of fluid pressing just under her skin.

Two small sacks under her cheeks
One pressing under her forehead
and one large swelling and sloshing sack floating in her stomach

This feeling is warm and might be pleasant it it weren't for susceptibility to sea sickness.

Walking the campus, liquidly heavy, Emily doesn't know what to do.

My 20th Birthday

Had a great birthday with some great friends! My dad made me the most magical love filled birthday crown and sent it to me to wear.

Here I am

She thinks of him indecisively

Does he do this because of this or because of this? She can't decide

Neither can she decide why she does what she does or why she'll do what she'll do.


INDECISION IS THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF DIABETES
And she loves sugar.

She feels frustrated

Sitting alone in the bathroom, trapped by accompanying identities and unbearably lonely,

She picks at her bodies blemishes.

She sits alone crunching carrots and contimplating her desirability

She had just seen him and he was wonderful
What is he thinking? she silently demands

She slips off her jacket revealing her naked shoulders uncovered by her notice-me-strapless dress

Did he notice?

Enters another man, or should she say boy?
He is shorter and more and less like herself
She doesn't know who's hands to jump in
PLUS she is almost out of carrots

CRUNCH CRUNCH

And OH! Yet another one, standing on the opposite corner with a flame for a head.
She wonders, is it hot under there?
Would he like her to get a wet paper towel?

Narative

Riding the train, she observes her crowded companions

This man's arm, reaching for a grip, is so placed that if she were to lean forward, just slightly, the two would be found in an intimate embrace.

That man's face, so nonchalantly close, so everyday riding the train close, so openly close, that Emily longs to reach out and touch it. Make contact with that which is so foreignly intimate.

Who are you? She silently asks,
Why can't I know you?
Would you like to know me?
Do you wonder at who I am ?

Afraid that her fellow riders might guess her thoughts, Emily embraces instead, her warm sugary 7/11 drink.

Another day on the train, she thinks, so much time waisted.

Feeling Lazy

Hope I won't sit here forever

I, I, I, I, I inquire, She. They. You. must be better then me.

But I'm not trying so who can judge.

I will be going. I will; Will we? They have all gone

So, oh well lets just take a walk through romanticism, compassion, admiration

And say, through your silver screen, you say in just the right way that I say just the right things.

But no one is telling me anything and the room just gets colder every time I look around myself.

Oh well, I repeat, there is a window and I don't know anything at all anyways

This is Ashley, Ashy, Ash......our new roommate! Coming down from the wild north to live with us in our forward thinking, yet slightly blown behind, ( cause lets admit, its pretty windy here) City. Shes a good one

Dress up

My sweet sweet Sarah, still not too old to play dress up.

Everything is new feeling to me right now. I just want to take chances. This is the year of chances. The year of deciding to do something and just doing it. How lovely to walk were you want and see how your step changes. New new new. Novi.

This is good

Living conditions

Separation the threes, no not really, two thirds and one

two lonely ones,

Three lonely ones,

Inside you, there it was, that character, one lonely girl.

Anticipate, inside to outside, I know its hard...Its hard

I'll try with frying pans, couch warming movies, girl, Iam a girl too.

Sarah and I got a new apartment that we will be moving into may first. Check it out

I will be traveling out west to ski with sis Carrie Poe so if you don't see me I'm probably doing some leg exercises......

Will you wont you will you wont you

Huh, I havent really done anyhing in the past three days. Absolutley nothing.

I am feeling suppressed. Really? No....just lazy.

Went out with John and Linny last night.
Great people
