fall
squarespace has discontinued the fonts i was using so you will note a change if you are observant. i haven’t decided if i like the new heading font or not, tell me if you hate it.
i’ve been feeling blue lately, i don’t want to, i want to fix it.
viv chen wrote a fall bucket list + a chill in the air this morning which made me wonder if i should start wearing a jacket (it is now 80 f / 27 c outside) = impetus to write my own lil list:
fall bucket list:
1. visit sasoon bakery, become friends with joseph
2. get up into the mountains
3. make brown butter cookie dough to keep in the freezer for blue days
4. finally visit the pacifica asia museum
5. attempt making gori gomtang (bone soup)
6. write a song
7. go stargazing on mt. wilson
8. read the books i keep buying from book alley
9. get scrubbed and nourished in ktown
10. give away a sweater, find a new sweater
11. cook for my friends
12. watch the sun fall into the pacific ocean
some words i’ve been entertaining these days:
That Love is all there is,
Is all we know of Love;
It is enough, the freight should be
Proportioned to the groove.
- Emily Dickinson
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
- Macbeth, Macbeth
I speak of the devil, and he appears just to show he's listening
I've been looking for a god every day, it's a symptom of the system
Maybe it's 'cause I've been looking for a love, for a love, love I've never given
And you grew up a marigold, I cut the stem, an end to a beginning
Will you call? Do I care? Dig a grave, fill the space
Fall in love, fuck a friend, let it go, look for God.
- Saya Gray, Exhaust the Topic
