Under Some Dirty Words on a Dirty Wall. Eating Take-Out Alone

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

I am not sure what peo­ple mean really, but in regard to the Duke case, my only agenda ori­gi­nally was to point out the sexist cul­ture we live in, expres­sed more often by the com­men­tary about women I see on blogs all over the place on posts surroun­ding the case ‚more than by the case itself, a case in which wit­nes­ses are being disc­re­di­ted daily.

Email from my mother — at our old home in Mary­land this week.

The lilacs are in bloom here. I know how you like to know when they are in bloom, even though you’re not here. I hope you get to see them this wee­kend. I know how happy they make you. Ima­gine the fra­grance darling.

I wish for a time when the smell of lilacs was all it took to make me happy.

Yes, she does call me dar­ling, espe­cially when she is in her pre 1970 movie mode. I love her anyway.


Oh no Things were loo­king up
Least that’s what I heard
Oh no Someone came and washed away
your hard-earned Peace of mind
