working.

laura asked me a couple of times yesterday if i'd read the news of the day. i hadn't because there's something very freeing about not sitting in front of a computer all day looking at news that all looks the same, no matter where you're looking. but this morning, i walked outside to have a cigarette with my first cup of coffee, sitting on the stoop like i like to do, sweating, but blissfully enjoying the hot hot sun, in a way that's only possible when you know that you can go back to your air-conditioned apartment whenever you want, and there was the saturday new york times at my feet. i'm a sucker for the news - i can never go too long without it, so i picked it up, and just reading the front page was enough for me to be disgusted and unwilling to read the rest of the paper. my resistance. haha. as if resistance can ever be feigned indifference, deliberate ignorance. but then i worked out and worked up a sweat, pulling my mind back to where it left my body. i'll let the outrage simmer for a bit, just to boiling, and see where it takes me.

but at the moment, there's shopping and cooking to be done. because lindsay and josh are in town!!!
