tilted tilt is making a list like egger and marked 050704 ... unhinged it was the first real snow of the season, later than i usually anticipated cause it didn't snow there as much or as soon as it did where i grew up. but cold, god was it cold. i had absolutely nothing to eat in my apartment so i hopped off the bus two stops early and stopped at the drug store for some mac and cheese and whatever was on sale in the freezer case. i had this lonely existence there, living by myself, eating by myself, sleeping by myself, riding the bus by myself; now in retrospect i think that is the best kind of existence for me. but i do tend to get miserably sad that way; and i was walking with my bags home from the drugstore, trudging in my same worn lonely little path when it started to snow. big fat fluffy wet little clumps of snow. i tilted my head back and stuck my tongue out and before my misery could get hold of it, a smile burst on my face and a little chuckle escaped. i loved to eat snowflakes when i was a kid. the cars sped past me in the opposite direction of the way i was walking cause i lived on a one way street and my smile widened. my crazy outline black in their bright headlights, i'm sure some craned their necks like they did when i waited at the bus stop in the morning. i walked that way for at least a block, head tilted back tongue sticking out catching snowflakes, because it was hard for me to remember the last time i smiled like that. 050705 what's it to you? who go blather from
