effing shet

today's the day i discovered sheryl crow's new song. it's a duet. with sting. today's the day i shared blogs with chin. we've been friends. for two decades. today's the day she started and finished reading written on the body. and today's the day we had to sit down on the sidewalk. in between smokes she says that this is where the most profound coversations are made. always.

she was screaming, "i want to be with someone!"

chin, being my friend, is, as expected, smart and funny and crazy and independent. the kind of person you'll never have a dull moment with. oh, and did i mention she's crazy?

"what's not to like about chin?," one of her friends blurted out. she can be alone and have the time of her life, let someone in, then let it go, and be alone again to still have the time of her life.

the-finger-effing-words-and-a-flood-of-tears moment later (with hand movements), that friend revealed why she's scary.

"your eyes may fiercely say i love you but you can easily say goodbye."

so i am scary. the bad news is, i'm also scared.

flood of tears! flood of tears!
