“There you sit on the edge of the MacBook...
...expecting to tyyype”
That's a fun song from the 60s. I wasn't alive then, but it was recorded so now I listen to sounds from the past that sound good enough for someone from the future to have access to those sounds from the past (popular).
I sit balconyside. Rescheduled Independence Center, again. The transport cannot take me there by Monday, as my permit is not approved.
So two weeks must pass
Anyway, that's disheartening, because life in Oakville has not become LESS-boring. Just a hopeful future of me A) not being here, and B) not experiencing the boredom.
So here's to patience.
I had a Twix earlier, because inflation has risen, so I can barely afford anything.
Monkeypox is a thing now. With autocorrects to “monkey pix”, so that will be a thing now too. I hope I don't get monkeypox, but by all means, send me monkey pix. Nudes only.
I stare across the parking lot at the motorcycles my neighbors have parked there. Ninja style, as I assume all non-Harleys are by the motorcycle co “Ninja”. I don't ride motorcycles. Or drive a car. Or ride a bike. Or anything considered heavy machinery. Because I'm a headcase who can't negotiate those things.
I can type stuff. So I do. And that takes me places.
It's hot too. My lower half is cooking in the sun, while my upper body is in the shade. I can see this screen.
The sky is pretty blue. Pretty AND blue, and also significantly blue. A nearby neighbor plays basketball in their backyard.
I, as mentioned, sit balconyside and try to see/hear all the things of the neighborhood.
A car came through, honking their horn, needing their presence be announced.
A wasp buzzes frequently. Annoys me.
This is a hell of a perch to see stuff from. It's sort of “front and center” near the edge of the parking lot. So everyone could see inside my apartment when the blinds are open. And I pity them when they look that way when the blinds are CLOSED, because the blinds have lost their white shade, and are now dark with tobacco resin / smoke residue.
Multiple flags are on some building dawning support for Ukraine. The half U.S./half Ukraine flag. It looks nice enough, but it kind of appears as though our countries have merged. I know that's not the implication, but that's what came to mind on first site.
No political news has happened my way in recent days. I guess things are ok? Not ok? Are they ever (just) ok???
My keyboard seems to be shitting out somehow. I need a new phone. Not happening anytime soon. Just celebrated three years with this hunk of glass/metal. I chucked this thing across the room, put a small dent in my door, cracked the top of my crappy TV screen, and dropped it (the phone) face down onto the ground numerous times before – it's still going. Mental illness is very real.
Onto lunch. Or early dinner. Or coffee. Or whatever.
Later
