Long overdue

Hello all -

Ponylegs is going on a hiatus. There is so much to say. So much has been happening. Pittsburgh is fucking nuts, always. But I have no time to say it. I'm buying myself two nice things soon: a real website and a nice purse. I'll let you know when the first is up, and I'll post a picture of the second.

Love,
Taylor

“On the wall was a dress that I embroidered. It said 'Ich Habe Genug.' Which is a Bach Cantata. Which I once thought meant, 'I’ve had it, I can’t take it anymore, give me a break.'

But I was wrong. It means, 'I have enough.'
And that is utterly true.
I happen to be alive. End of discussion.

But I will go out and buy a hat."

That's all, that says everything.

Okay, in the past few weeks, I have:

- not had internet
- finished painting my house
- started to decorate
- gotten lice
- hopefully gotten rid of lice
- let everyone in my immediate social circle/randy's social circle know about said lice to prevent spreading
- witnessed a KIDNAPPING
- got some free drapes from a man who may/may not be a sex offender (I am researching right now)
- was (knowingly?) exposed to lead posioning, had to make a big stink about that.
- gone through several bottles of wine. The big ones.

So I have learned, briefly:
- Lice are the STD of children (if you're 14 and embarrassed to buy tampons, wait until you're 22 and buying every NIX product on the shelf. This is modern romance: stark naked in the bathroom with the boyfriend, picking nits out of each other's hair. Yeah.)
- My neighborhood is a lil scary sometimes. I now want a Doberman more than ever.
- Know your rights, as Angelina's back tattoo says.
