keeping it up.
i heard someone gushing today about being in the second month of one of those relationships that makes your life make more sense than it did. and i just wanted to say, it's not not like that anymore. i still occasionally cannot believe that something like the monkey happened to me, and i still swoon. just this morning, he did a striptease in the living room in which his inexpertly cast-off pajamas became large cloth sausages which eventually throttled him. i watched in amazement. there are times that my life is a movie.
or rather, there are still times that my life is the movie i like. but those moments occur almost always at home. i know that's not enough, and if there were any danger of my not knowing that it wasn't enough, the monkey's near constant stream of well-deserved professional success would be lifting the hems of my eyelids, saying peekaboo, you. remember what you always wanted?
in deference to the good things in my life, i called The Doctor today. if i had insurance, it'd be a simpler set of calls, but even so, i'll get it done. i'm tired, though. it's harder to do it when you're tired.
