5:35PM: have been watching slow accumulation of pigeons gather outside my window, perching in an ominous line on building across mine. seems like they’re about to watch a public execution.

9:36am: there was a ticket on my windshield. Was looking forward to getting a medium coffee coolatta with no whipped cream the whole walk to car. The coolatta was my main reason to leave bed. The promise of a coffee coolatta. Can smell the ocean. Thought ‘I’ll just walk a mile along the ocean, why don’t I ever do that’ on the way to dunkin donuts. In elevator to my building now. Exiting elevator. Getting the coolatta to prolong wakefulness/laying in bed to watch ‘the office’ and probably not wash the cat pee sheets is funny. I asked for $2 in change from the cashier at dunkin donuts. Encountered some inane mutual confusion. Ended up grinning and saying ‘laundry’ a few times at the end. Pretty sure cashier didn’t understand me.

9:43am: the coolatta is making my stomach hurt. Third coolatta of my life. The other two were ‘mocha coffee coolattas.’ This one is a ‘coffee coffee coolatta.’ They were all mediums. I endorse the coffee coolatta product.

10:27AM: have mostly been watching ‘the office’ the past two days. wanted to look at [omitted]’s okcupid profile this morning but seems like my account is suspended. zachary’s account was still signed in on firefox. found a number of annoying discrepancies between what [omitted] chooses to say on his profile and things i know to be true about him.

10:52AM: gchatted with zachary about coolattas. forcing my coolatta interest on the innocent. sent him the link to [omitted]’s okcupid profile. we got into shittalky stuff, quoting the profile. i was laughing. without knowing who [omitted] was, zachary picked out stuff i thought was funny/interesting/like ‘what the hell is this’ about the profile. was surprised by um. his ability to see things. i’m not surprised by that actually, i know zachary sees stuff. observant sensitive intelligent person. the surprise was more in hearing another person notice the things i think i can ignore about people and like, privately conclude ‘no one else would notice this, i’m being too picky/overly sensitive, i should be grateful that anyone wants to get to know me’ about. have re-read our conversation maybe four times. felt ‘intense,’ all the times. considered including in liveblog but i’m already drawing more attention to [omitted] than i feel good about doing, by including this at all.
