Today was a people watching day from heaven. I had to wait at the bridge to meet sonya, but she was 2 hours late so i got to sit at Golden Gate and watch families awkwardly assembling their kids and forcing them to smile.the best pictures are when the mother forcefully grabs their kids shoulders and pulls them back so in the picture they look like they are in major pain, on the boundaries of crying, and punching their mom in the face. Since i was sitting on a bench in front of the perfect kodak area, i was able to take pictures of my favorite tourists...
I did a couple of comic sketches but this guy kept staring at them and me so i moved around and asked people if they needed pictures taken. papa-papa-razzi.
then I went to a fun little picnic with X and we ate piles of pasta salad and cheesecake and sang cat stevens in tunnels at the park. We went to this museum view area thingy to look at the city and take some pictures.out of the fucking BLUE this lady just yells at us "No flash!"ugh urks me.I should have yelled back "NO DYKES." but im too tactful. did i really need to be reprimanded? no one else was around us. We talked about what you would do if you werent limited to 3 magical wishes but you could have 20 and somewhere in the mix of my answers was that i wish i could pee standing up. im still trying to figure out why thats in my top 20. penis envy? annnyway, ximena made some decent wishes, like the power to be able to jump into books. thats an awesome choice because that doubles as time travel. i need to work on my wish list because the only other things i could think of were always being barefoot ( i guess you can technically do that but peopple think your a freak) and going to alaska, but those are possible, i need to be more imaginative. like i said, ill work on it.
ok going off track, i had a short, yet deep conversation with nuche that i dont understand why we dont eat zebras instead of cows? Why are there so many types of plants? it amazes me that with the same treatment, just having sun and water, each seed can turn into something completely different, beautiful, productive. You can make this into any kind of shitty metaphor you want about humans but i really just like the botany aspect. who decided weeds werent beautiful enough to live? carnations are ugly as shit, but they get put in vases. im going to start a movement and keep weeds in a vase in the kitchen. RESPECT THE UGLY. ooh bumper sticker? wait. bad idea. just respect dandelions.
