Day day

Hip all wrong.
Managed to catch train anyway.
Met queenofhalves at Diesel, made acquaintance of a friend of hers.
Ran into ninevrise at Diesel too.
Used bookstores are dens of temptation and iniquity.
Introduced to strange Indian bakery by teinedreugan.
Went to games.
Played with small person who really likes the shiny power button on the laptop.
Read some Eliot aloud, including bits that I clearly needed to read at the time.
Snuggled arawen, for lack of anything more helpful to do.
Discussed non-plans for tomorrow with teinedreugan.
Removed pigeon from fireplace (well, teinedreugan did).
Prepared for people to come measure our doors at a ridiculous hour of the morning.
Contemplating:

Quick now, here, now, always—
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)

and symbology of a rose made of fire as some sort of weird dedication thing. There's a Black Heart thought in here somewhere. Consumed by fire or fire.

I want ... I reach for ... something. All I wanted was a piece of the night, it never had to get so dark. Ahh, nebulous yearnings.

Also, I want my hip to not hurt.
