so, about the weekend

still don't know the best way of doing this. perhaps i'll do some lists to start:

better than i imagined:
-the absolute PERFECTNESS of the mix ch made me to listen to on the train
-the cuteness of l's apartment
-the charm of hamtramck
-sex
-our dinner party, and the fabulous food therein
-seeing leah
-opening her gifts with laura
-dancing at stillettos
-watching laura dance
-candlelit bubblebath in the clawfoot tub
-meeting trish and ratboy
-elliot
-l's driving, directional orientation, and paralell parking skills



worse than i imagined:
-the complicatedness of taking a shower under the eves
-michigan's lack of beauty and charm
-the amount of appropriate kitchen gadgets l has
- the distruction caused by jackson and jane
-the coldness of l's wooden floors
-the shortness of the trip
-leaving

so the good absolutely outweighs the bad.
