Personal Floatation Devices

arugula and prosciutto quiche for 30 = done.

mushroom and truffle soup for 30 = done.

balcony, tinkling reward nightcap in hand, stone-faced, staring at slick queen street and sunday night club goers, queen's 'don't stop me now' on the headphones.

at some point, i realize that i'm smiling.

at some point, i realize that i'm sort of dancing.

at some point, i realize that i'm pretty content.

when those moments happen, in a dirty plaid shirt and vintage stewardess' hat from the 60s, i realize that this whole thing is what i make it.

and then, 'we are the champions' comes on.

and i laugh so hard that i choke on an ice cube, and have to give myself the heimlich on the balcony railing.

life and death and food and internet. my life.

sigh.
