Deja Vus, and other stories.

Going out tonight. Can you believe that? Finally, thought, what am I waiting around for. Cheeah invited me out, I work with her, and worked with her when I was hired the first time. Goin' to the Crown to meet her and others. Billy usually goes out for beer with the surf bros in the evenings, I said guess what I"M GOING TNIGHT TOO! said oh, you going out? maybe I have time for both. Ha! And I took the Sue for her afternoon bicycle ride, and I rearranged Stuff & Things, and I had a cocktail, and I burnt sage, heavenly sage. I sewed some shirts but that didn't satiate, am gonna shoer, shave, plucking of the eyebrows, putting on of the makeup, painting of the nails---and sit in the garage to read, because that is the only corner of the house that gets light beyond 9 a.m., and I've always wanted to do that, watch the ice cream truck roll by with the flashy rims. Beneath to the right of the black widow against the ceiling, to the left of the bikes, with Molly tied up and laying on a blanket, and Simon strutting his stuff down the driveway. Then, I'm going to wake up because I will fall asleep in the perfect warmth, unless the fog rolls in early. I love days off.

I hadn't taken photos in about a month and I made up for it this past week.
Like this says I would be shocked to get my period this month. My Starbucks store is closing. Things will change drastically, I don't want to go to school I want to get a job and then have kids.

Big Sur made me miss my dreadlocks. I got a new journal, with the Book of Kells picture on it (I wrote a fine essay about it in art history)

Refugio Beach, Santa Barbara











Hot wind blew in the evenings. Dolphins popped up and looked us in the eyes. Billy and me slept together outside so we could fall asleep watching the stars. We kayaked, we snorkeled, we walked, I crew, I took pictures, we ate meat over oakwood every single night, we had beers and fritos and vodka infused fruit cocktais.

I got stung by a bee in my fingertip and it swelled up and was hard to wrap around the paddle kayaking, the dogs got off and ran away and then found again, Molly broke off her leash to get a dog who looked like a coyote, and bit Tommy, and broke out of the tent at 3 a.m. to chase a skunk who sprayed her and out tent and we poured Trudy's bloody mary mix over her and almost died of painful nausea and gagging, we had to throw away our pillows and luggage bags because it went through the tent. We spent half a day in town doing laundry and buying a choke chain. Molly was a crazy post traumatic stressed out depressed dog camping :/ I was horrible, burned throat and nasal like onions and rotten garlic and hair permanent mixed together and I got sick to my stomach, it didn't smell like skunk at all, just horrible.

By the time I went to work at 4 yesterday we had viewed 5 potential places, found one, qualified and gotten the okay to start moving in August 25th. I LOVE The hard floors, even though they are beat up, I just think your house can never be totally clean with carpet. At least not us, ours is full of coffee & wine. We have enough room for Billy to reclaim his tropical aquarium which he's had longer than he's had me (and kept it at the dive shop because we couldn't fit it in this house) there is a DISHWASHER, there are three hallway closets, two bedrooms with a closet each, we can have a KITCHEN TABLE again, and there is an actual launrdy room, the size of half our living room now. We actually have room for more than one person to stay the night at once. And a garage where Billy can do painting and surfboard repair and store all our crap that is outside in plastic sheds now. It is in a cult a sac of track housing 6 miles from Monterey on the unniversity campus faculty housing, has a tiny ghetto backyard which we could at least barbq and raise plants in, but there is a tiny gat that opens up to a grassy feild and then an endless oak forest beyond. We are SO EXCITED
