it was a good weekend. i fled from home in a rentalMobile on Friday evening, off to Kansas City to live with my poet for a few hours. after re-connecting, we had protein drinks and chips for dinner, then walked around the Sculpture Garden at the Nelson-Atkins/Bloch, right in his neighborhood, then back for wallowing about, listening to Fish Fry on scratchy public radio, with the breeze blowing through the window and the fan spinning above. some sleep. up early, out to a fairly unsuccessful breakfast at River Market and procurement of some vegetables. then exploration of a new neighborhood - Columbus Park - and discovery of the breakfast joint we really wished we had waited for. next time!!! but we sat on their orange cut-velvet sofa and had a little coffee anyway. later some lunch at Cancun then for a little fresh air hike at Cave Springs Park. i found a snake for my poet! he likes them! (shudder). somewhere in the day i bought some glue sticks and new tissues at Utrecht, and he bought some groceries. there was a Swedish film - Everlasting Moments - *not* about cutesy ceramic figurines or a hokey Harlequin romance - but a beautiful slow fine photography film. highly recommended. then daydreams and strawberries at home for dinner, an early night with little sleep (man! the sirens and birds are so much more plentiful and LOUDER in the city), then my poet must be at work at 6:30am and i must go home for my weekend errands and some lethargy at the artTable. tornado watch. flood watch. feeling out of place. but King T is glad i am back.
does writing your life online feel strange to you now, too? it is feeling increasingly so to me. i miss everyone very much. facebook doesn’t quite do it for me. and twitter - i’m not touching it! anyway…

Wow–what a great weekend, Bobbi.
And, yes, it does feel strange. I hardly do it anymore–just Etsy showcases, inspirations, etc. But I do love reading your life. ;-)
So don’t quit.

i probably won’t quit. i think i am addicted. or some need is served by this stuff?
but i wish other people would continue, TOO! ahem.
