test drive
Ron came over to give me some TLC last night, and I had some homemade summer soup ready for the big man. Of course in my current condition, we couldn't do much but cuddle, but I gave him this proposal, of sorts:
"Ron, when I'm fully healed, I want you to be the first to test drive my newly expanded throat."
I am surviving work so far today. A little outside my body due to the drugs, but otherwise functioning OK and actually getting things done. I am starting to crave solid food now.
I think this is my first summer in DC where I'm tolerating it well. No complaints, so far. Maybe it's due to the two-month long Mordor stretch of weather, or maybe it's because my tender throat really likes hot, humid air.
Yesterday I went to Mitzhi's pad to pick up some DVDs to watch. Her flat was fucking fabulous. Her bathroom was completely soundproofed with maxi pads lined up on the walls, coating every inch, even in the shower stall. There in the stall, she had bromeliads growing off of the damp maxi pads. Nice touch.
I want to go to summer camp. I want to go to the beach. I want to go fishing. I want to go hiking. I remember all these offers for a weekend at the beach, but now I can't remember who said them.

I was the one to say you could come up to New Carrollton and enjoy a sunny weekend in the hood!

You know you are welcome to Houston anytime. I'm about 30 minutes from the beach, although you might have to dodge the oil slicks. ;-)
