in the good name of fresh starts, i have decided to halt this here livejournal. but before you breathe a sigh of relief, just know that i am taking up under a new name, in the spirit of being twenty-five (almost) and all. expect vague historical assessments and google image pillaging to continue over at that site. there is a fairly large group

Add me. Keep me in the loop.

I adored that picture, but the journal was empty. What gives?

Now would be the time that you add me. Soon would be the time that my new friend and I will down to see DC and force you and yours into tour guidery. Yes, that is a word. Okay, well it should be.

new friend?! mysterious. see, i hope you weren't kidding about what you said up there, because i already told matthew over yuengling in mason jars about you visiting DC and us hanging out - and that pretty much seals the deal.

Not kidding in the slightest. When do those cherry blossoms happen?

I haven't been to DC since like umm 1984 or something like that.* And then it was only a one day visit as part of a family vacation (most of which spent camping near Virginia Beach). I do remember that I convinced my parents to buy me a black shirt with white checkers on it -- sleeveless -- that said Washington DC. I looked damn hip and it matched my checkered slip on Vans. It looked good with my camouflage pants and the accompanying blue bandanna which was tied around the appropriate calf. I'm not sure which calf that was, or even what I was supposed to be declaring. I think one was "I use drugs" the other "I sell drugs." Of course I did neither. But it was important to have it tied around my calf anyway.

* I actually drove through this spring between the Baltimore rally and picking up a scooter in Alexandria. But there was no stopping and monuments only seen from a distance.

cherry blossoms: i don't know, spring? what is spring? it's too autumnal here to even remember. i'm still holding you to it.

maybe by then i'll have a handle on all things hip, at least hip enough for someone who once owned a sleeveless checkerboard shirt? that bandanna-on-the-calf thing is too good not to write about. i'm putting it in my book. with credit to you!
