after thanksgiving
there are silver glass balls like iridescent seedpods on the firebush in my front yard. there's a paper wreath hanging in the kitchen. soon, i'll make hot cocoa with rosewater guimauve. i'll decorate the front of my house with C-9 lights so it looks like a gingerbread cottage. i'll have my friends over to string cranberry garland and watch children's shows on television. can you tell? i'm desperately trying to avoid thinking about everything that's wrong.
* * * listening to: the dodos - red & purple. reading: john barnes - one for the morning glory. working on: hand-quilting my hoover garden patchwork. do i like hand-quilting? no, not at all. i keep sewing my fingers.
