my other home has 24 industrial dryers

i'm so thirsty. i'm not getting enough liquids i know. because i'm too busy scratching myself and scrounging for a meal. ah ... the new york life.

there is a box in a townhouse in hawthorne and it needs to be shipped to me. everyone that lives in that house disabled so if you feel the need to help out i would give you all the love i can muster up from the depths of my heart because i don't make any money.

i've been to the classic laundromat so much in the past 3 weeks that the people who work here probably know me by name. they probably have lengthy conversations about their customers including that one black girl who always brings her laundry in plastic garbage bags and scratches her arms while she waits. i think ethan hawke filmed one of his movies here because there are 2 framed pictures of him and the guy who played trey in sex and the city with very dramatic looks on their faces.

yesterday i had to get out of the bug infested house so i just walked from the apple store (my second home) to union square down 5th avenue. there i sat in the park and read until some random guy announced that it was going to rain. it didn't rain but i ran for cover anyway into the cafe at whole foods. those nyu kids have it good. a whole foods and a trader joe's within seconds of each other. i think i spotted kiera knightley's husband from love actually while i was walking through the park yesterday. i'm pretty sure it was him. he has pretty distinct features.

work was hell today because i spent half the previous night sleeping on the kitchen table to keep from getting bit more. and i spent half the day on a return from the drowsy state that generic atarax produces because i took it at 3:30am and had to be out the door at 8:15am to get to my supervisors house by 10am. ugh. and i felt nauseous all day long.

i'm in the process of disinfecting my room. i don't think the fumigation job done 3 weeks ago was very thorough so i'm taking matters into my own hands. my new motto for everything pretty much is "if you want something done right you gotta do it yourself." if the bugs come back this time however i am all about moving to another location. there's no harm in asking anyway. all i know is i cannot go another night of sleeping on the kitchen table. the situation has surpassed ridiculous.

on the other hand. i love new york and have never felt so astonished and so alive as i have with every moment i spend in this place.

oh hey! i will be attending the soa watch for the first time ever this year. if anyone's going, call me. that's the update. i'm tired.
