10:19:21 PM.
On a Monday.
The air outside smells like dead dingo and the air in here wreaks of a rotting 4-day old meatball sub.
Fatigue.
The not-so-faint noise of a Christian rock song from 424. The same one I hear every hour. every day. every week.
No.
Memories of a stolen brita water pitcher. A half an hour wasted in discussion, the lies and deceit of a preacher. But that was hours ago.
The laughter of a young black woman echoes down the hallway...... Typical. She's only seventeen. A name like Viveka. The sound of youth.
The professional French-hornist across the hall leaves his room.
The door is open.
Temptation. An expensive bike.
Fight kid fight.
He is back.
The TV is on.
I squint through my doorway. Across the hall. Through another doorway. 10 ft. The Olympics on television. Dancing on ice. My mind wanders.
I remember a simpler time. 30 minutes ago.
A skinny white girl from a different world.
Kind of like Avatar. But not blue, or foreign or alien. Or Zoe Saldana for that matter.
A name derived from traditional African folklore, contrary to claims of Hawaiian etymological reference.
Those precious minutes.
A gay man from the streets of a quaint northern Nevadan town.
Blonde hair. Blue eyes.
A passion for covers.
As the tubes of you are flooded with me singing,
We are eternally bound.
Now.
10:35:10 PM
Still a Monday.
A ghost of a voice whispers in my left ear. A suggestion. An experiment.
The power of the internet.
A word.
A search.
The possibilities.
MILKSHAKE.
Click. Links.
TEDIOUS.
11:00:09
An hour from Tuesday.
But Monday nonetheless.
Pirates of the Caribbean theme used by NBC for Olympic Alpine Skiing Recap.
Laugh out Loud.
Metaphorically.
In truth, laughing in silence.
Bode Miller <>
A passion for Zambonis.
A sense that this blog nears its end.
Harry Potter theme park.
A time for confessions.
I attended Hogwarts for the last 7 years.
Like Hermione, however, chose to attend Muggle college.
Screw Brown University. Herms is prob. cheating on me there.
Whatever.
Don't need her BS.
Moving on with my life.
Not paying child support either.
My hero?
Allstate Insurance Guy.
Makes me feel secure.
And
You and you and you.
You ARE going to LOVE Me.
YEAH.
11:07:59.
A millisecond from 11:08.
Monday once more.
An hour.
I return to solitude. Aboriginal Ice Dancing FTW.
