1. my eyes hurt real bad.
2. want to make art real bad.
3. i think there are paper wasps building a nest on the balcony out back.

it has recently occured to me that i have gotten this place to live, and it’s really pretty much all i have ever wanted all along. let’s look at it. i have my own little apartment. i live on the border of the bush. i live next to a creek. i look out my back door, or sit on my balcony and see a giant old gum tree and see lots of birds. i am one block away from a library. i am also one block away from a beautiful and special community garden. i got what i asked for. life is truly wonderful and i am so blessed.
