i am grateful for:
1) all you lovely readers and your sweet comments. it really helps in so many ways the valerie, inc. mission. not that that mission is totally clear but it has something to do with, well, spreading love or something. i mean tell that to the chick i glared at on the subway the other day, but, well, yeah. thanks for the lovely reflection and reminder.
2) summer. full-blown, too-hot subway stations summer. it’s like a delicious blast from the past that reminds me of early childhood and angsty adoloscence and early spike lee movies. sticky, smelly, sexy city summer. yum.
3) that my starfish/foot photo is the lead image on beliefnet tonight
4) um, i think i have a book proposal, minus a few tks and in need of an edit. but, like, a book proposal. soclose.
5) the mighty and talented e., my writing partner goddess
6) that j. gets to go on an indian adventure. is it possible to feel grateful for other people’s vacation fun?
7) a/c
8) vosges chili chocolate bars
9) globesonic anticipation–anyone wanna go dance by the hudson on friday night? i’m guessing it will just be me and my gold shoes and strangers, but that’s ok, i think. it’s august and the river and they got the beats, y’all.
10) that i haven’t felt the need to watch any dvd’s lately. like summer just fills me up almost past the need for distraction and fluff-filling.
11) new york
