filler episode antics
I went downtown. Had to go out with no phone again. It wasn't a nightmare like last time because it's an area I go to all the time. I've been using the subway since I was a teenager, so I never stress out about getting around. I brought my acoustic with me. I'm not really sure why, I just felt like it.
I went to a punk jewelry store that opened up recently that I've been wanting to go to. Everything was really cute, and I plan on going back soon. I've been wanting new jewelry because I feel like I have a lot of jewelry that's more minimalist, but I'm not into it. I'm craving pieces with character. They had these really cute tails there too with a buzzsaw charm on them. I thought that was really hot. The girl working there was sweet too.
Then I hung around in front of another punk store for a few hours. Just talking to everyone, smoked a little, danced to darkwave. Simple living. A kid was selling bones and I really wanted one, but I have nothing to trade lately. They were from a raccoon. I think the spinal bones are really cool, but the pelvis is also really interesting. I also saw a hot guy with a skinhead look. Nothing really came out of it, but it's funny when a guy notices you checking him out, and he starts to struggle to ignore you. In the most loving way, keeping them on their toes.
I would have stayed out for longer, but I was getting hungry and didn't want to spend money in the city. It's all very tempting. I haven't been bestowed a cheeseburger yet even though my soul craves one. I'd do anything for one—except pay thirty dollars. I feel entitled to a consolation burrito, but I always do.
There was this guy on the train who was spreading across the entire bench. Big old guy with a cane wearing a police hoodie. He looked like a retired officer. This guy not only took up three seats but decided it'd be a good time to eye fuck me. Cops checking me out is so annoying, because of the way I dress I know they're thinking some fucked up shit. Especially when they're old white guys. They're into that fantasy of "punishing" you, and it's so unsettling to be aware of.
