flurry
i am lounging in bed in the evening sun with yoko. oliver is off hanging out with pete and refueling our biodiesel-dunny mobile. though he and i are often conflicted about our apartment (it's just too expensive, and isn't in the best location), it's really nice here most of the time. i can see the fog laying on top of twin peaks in the sunshine, looking a lot like yoko: white, and fluffy. and vast.
things are humming along lovingly. work is going well, i've gotten into a groove there and this week i gave jason a reading and it really made me feel like i finally "know" people at work. between that and having such fun hooping on sunday, plus all the love at ritual, i'm feeling really good about humanity and community in sf.
re: ritual. i don't think the people who run ritual even realize how much having an awesome mission district communal living room is improving community relations for me and my crew. we see each other so much more! it makes me SO HAPPY. i have already reconnected with a couple of great people that i would have never really seen otherwise, becuase of ritual. fuck yeah.
a lot of life is on its way:
next week i have hooping class for three days, and this weekend there is a biodiesel car show and a birthday party. plus seeing willy wonka friday. there's a really awesome wedding coming up in august (two, actually, on the same day, so we had to pick which one!). i've got astrology articles due for two different publications, and a little wave of readings for people coming next week, too. i'm in the midst of applying to go to new college in the fall. plus, of course, burning man, which i'm still terminally waffling about. i'm considering spending a week in NYC instead, by myself, to hang out with the ladies i know there. though i also crave nature.. the forest more than the desert.
and even with all that coming and all that to think about, i'm still so calmly happy about simply laying here in bed with miss yoko and watching the fog. she just climbed up on me and curled up.
