Plans for this weekend are finalized!!! I’m going with irish-girl to Chicago to see the National Poetry Slam 2003 finals! (Aren’t you all just totally jealous.)
I’ve been working on the poem I just posted on and off all day today. My mood has been extra creative ever since I got the idea into my head that I’ll finish my poetry book before I leave, and make a dozen or so copies to trade/give to poets while I’m there. I think I’ve decided I’m going to call it Photocopies and Staples. I’m also going to do the cover/layout for this version myself, as I don’t think Laura really has any time in the next 48 hours to whip up a design for me. I think staples will figure heavily into the cover.
If there’s time on the trip, we’re going to go see Varekai. There are about 5 or 10 people here in the city who will be jealous and/or hate me for going without them, but I’m super excited.
Yes, yes, I hate you.
i don’t hate you. i’ve never seen a cirque du soleil show in my whole life. what a thrill, if we can get tickets!
