I want to be wherever
The best thing about having this here blog is seeing the changes that’ve happened across all this time.
I don’t always use pictures that relate to the entry I’m writing about. For example, this entry is when I met a waitress that looked just like Natalie Portman, but the picture is one I took when I met a girl named Alice.
I don’t mention every person I meet in this blog for a number of reasons, least of which so many people I meet stay in my venn diagram. Natalie didn’t but Alice did.
Alice and I’d not seen each other in years; as I said, before Alison got sick, we stopped being social and in the world because Alison and I lost so many pregnancies. And then the fucking cancer came.
Been gingerly stepping back into the world here and there. When I was young and single, had a rule that served me well: Never turn down an invite.
It’s how I met both Alison and the Gymgirl. And a lotta others.
Anywho, Alice invited me to her birthday party the other day and I decided to go with the Gymgirl to this bar called The Churchill.
Cause I’d decided to stay here in this world so I might as well take part in it. From time-to-time, at least.
Alice: Logan! (hugs me tightly) You came. I haven’t seen you in…
Me: It’s been a while.
Her: (hesitatingly) How have you been?
Me: (shrugging) You know…it’s been a lotta rock bottom. But, maybe I’m heading north.
My brother wrote a song once about a girl named Alice – not this Alice – that I’ve always liked.
I seem to like women whose name begin with “Al.”
Location: Not north yet
Mood: pensive
Music: I want to be wherever Alice is
