[i]Waking up shortly after 1 p.m.
Peach. Orange Juice.
Concocting a red bean dish to simmer in the crock-pot for 8
hours. Onions make me cry.
Grilled Cheese with Tomato and Hummus. Salt n Vinegar Chips.
Honey Green Tea. Coconut Water.
Watching Monument Ave. (1998).
Skype chat with Aysena. This conversation is full of love
and sweetness. Enamored by each other’s lips. She’s bouncy and slinging her
long black hair across her face as a shy gesture. I mimic her with a pink
airline blanket.
Meeting up with Anthony and Kelley at AMC by Lynnhaven Mall
to catch the 6:20 showing of The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012).
Sitting next to Anthony. I notice Kelley, on his left side, hold out her hand
and Anthony grab hold of it immediately. I hold out my hand in hopes of the
same and Anthony grabs hold of it immediately. While I’m watching the movie I
find myself teary eyed and emotionally engaged. I read this book a long time
ago and remember its mood having a lasting effect on my life. The film achieves
everything I remember about the story.
...
The movie’s over. Outside with Anthony waiting for Kelley to
get out of the bathroom. He turns to me and points out to the courtyard in
front of the mall, “Friday night. Consumer America!”
Back home. The red beans are almost done cooking in the
crock-pot. I start steaming some rice along with String Beans and Carrots.
After all is said and done I congregate Anthony, Kelley, Kevin, and Richie
around the dinner table and we enjoy the Red Beans and Rice as a family.
Sipping on a bottle of Smithwick.
In my room. Getting the blog ready for its long awaited
comeback after a whole year of not posting.
Raspberries.
Learning Russian.
Watching a completely twisted documentary about a
cannibalistic Japanese man.
Nutella and Peanut Butter Sandwich. Coconut Water.
Sleep 4 a.m.
[i] Logan
Lerman. The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
