pennies in the water: April 2009
http://penniesinthewater.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Pennies in the water. Friday, April 24, 2009. Love, love, love. Love, love, love. Isn’t that how that Beatles song goes? Jacob was having one of his nightmare things last night, a light one. From out of sleep he joined us in the living room Larry surfing playoff hockey, basketball and watching some Blue Jays too. If there’s anything you need just call, I said. Then fast he said, love. I need love. Sunday, April 12, 2009. If only my blog entries were more socially relevant. We went out for an art walk yes...

pennies in the water: October 2008

Pennies in the water. Friday, October 31, 2008. Eli came home extremely drunk in the middle of the night. He knocked on the side door, waking us up then collapsed on the stairs that lead up to the main floor. He was crying. He was talking incomprehensibly about being treated wrongly. About being beaten on. I don’t think it was that bad. Larry was talking to him and even helping examine him and making sure. Tuesday, October 28, 2008. Includes incomprehensible astrological terminology. The next time I want...

Pennies in the water. Sunday, March 29, 2009. We went down to London today for Larry’s brother Michael’s 60th birthday. Michael has nice friends. They’re Londoners. So am I. I didn’t realize it until now but I think I’ve always been in Londoner denial. Londoners are so conservative, plain, ordinary. Surrounding London is farm land. London is called the forest city. Because it has plenty of trees. What makes London and Londoners so plain and ordinary? I think only a Londoner would get so upset, even if it...

Pennies in the water. Monday, May 18, 2009. Poor Iggy has sex on the brain. Lilu doesn't get it; his constant sniffing at her nether regions; the distracted, nostril-flared dazed look on his face; the neck pinning and pelvic thrusts. She visits me, I think for assurances, more often than she did. I don't know if Iggy gets what's going on either. Some months ago, we set Iggy's appointment with the vet for the snipping, except it's not snipping anymore - its laser surgery, for the last weekend of May.

pennies in the water: September 2008
http://penniesinthewater.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Pennies in the water. Tuesday, September 23, 2008. All the ladies are wearing black skirts with floral patterns on them. It's been like that for the past two days. The one walking up the stairs in front of me today had an abstract motif. It was in purples and whites and the edges were hard not round like regular flowers. Its pattern was like the result of an especially odd wheel you picked out then drew from spirograph. Saturday, September 13, 2008. I weeded the back garden yesterday. The good thing ...

http://penniesinthewater.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Pennies in the water. Sunday, March 21, 2010. 39 days til we move. Jacob is at the Buzadi's. With Henry. It turned cold. They are in Etobicoke. A drive away I am about to make. Larry was mad because I always act superior he said about how he is attached to things and I am not. And people, he said, unfairly. Which I pointed out. But we didn't talk about. It's hard to write about the heart usually. Usually it comes out all cliche. But it was hurting because I was thinking, this is the person I love?

Pennies in the water. Saturday, May 24, 2008. I didn’t really have to yell at him from there, I suppose. Its uncomfortable walking up behind someone’s back who doesn’t know you’re there and you don’t even know where they are exactly but just see them all of a sudden, because he could have been in his other room. And they’re barely dressed. Saturday, May 03, 2008. Most days during the week I work at a government call centre for Canada Pension and Old Age Security. My desk is dark. A woman came by ...Since...

pennies in the water: August 2008
http://penniesinthewater.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Pennies in the water. Sunday, August 24, 2008. The nice part of being sick is getting to hold onto my personal perspective better. I’m always so way out there in everyone else. I’m always lost. Out there. I don’t want to get better. That’s bad. I know. But it’s a thought. Worth thinking. I bet it’s a thought that happens to a lot people who then can’t think of anything better and then can’t find their way back to better. I wish that was my father. Wednesday, August 20, 2008. The juice of the now. I start...
