my little

i volunteer for big brother big sister nyc. every other week i spend time with a 15 year old girl from the dominican republic with a speech impediment. her impediment certainly doesnt stop her from having the filthiest mouth i have ever heard under 5 foot. while i should be carrying a bar of soap around with me to set her straight, i usually end up laughing my ass off as she talks about her “fucking pitbulls nasty ball sack rubbing up on me” and how she wishes she “could chop those fuckers off.” she often speaks of how she doesnt have time for a boyfriend. she is getting married after 30 and she wants to adopt an asian baby “they’re such cute shits.” she couldnt hang out friday because she had to wash her hair. yeah i have a lot of work ahead of me.

i took her to see nick and norahs infinite playlist, she said it was retarded. i however appreciated the locations which were for the most part in the l.e.s. where i live. they of course shot a scene at veselka where i have many fond memories.

soon after my last post in the wee hours i got a phone call from a friend which peeled my lids open even more. an hour later i found myself biking to veselka (resto where pierogis can be enjoyed 24hrs a day). i met a friend there to hash some things out until 7am! this peaceful hour was the perfect timeframe for the most diplomitic discussion i have ever had with the most rational man i’ve ever come to know. i biked off into the sunset dodging the morning commuters, came home to my warm bed and got a good hour of sleep. it’s noon. my eyes are bloodshot.
