just got back from a really ridiculous bike ride...it started out so innocently, i just rode out to the post office to drop off a netflix...and then i kept going...halfway to Lyons...which is really really far, on a highway, with semi-trucks speeding past me at 90 mph...i'm hecka stupid, but it was hecka fun...until i started to suffer from sun-stroke and dehydration (no helmet, no water, no food today...still haven't eaten anything...i totally forgot/ and am still forgetting to eat!)...and all of this on my busted ass Schwinn that only rides in one gear, in Colorado...in 85 degree weather, no clouds...fun!...the payoff of one gear riding is super yoked legs...i could kick a hole through your car door...i've developed like, muscle veins in my calfs along with that butt-chin thing that happens to a yoked calf muscles...yeah, sort of gross, but sort of fun to look at (for me at least)...on the way back i thought i was going to die, so i pretended i was Lance Armstrong...i was like "you're Lance Armstrong, you're on steroids, you can't feel the pain, no pain, no pain in your legs, just breath champ..."...it worked, i totally abused steroids psychosomatically this afternoon and got home okay...
so, i stink, i haven't smoked today, haven't had a drink since yesterday afternoon in the park when Hot Whiskey and i got busted by this cop...i swear this cop went to Naropa, he's all "i'm going to let you off with a warning, please be mindful of the neighborhood..."...Hot Whiskey and i looked at each other like "did dude just say 'mindful?!'"
Sabrina stinks too, she's been working in her garden all afternoon...she's going to shower, i'm going shower, we're going to rendezvous then shimmy on over to Erin Donelly's opening...
currently listening to Gipsy Kings Best Of The Gipsy Kings...

Why do you talk about Hot Whiskey like it's a person? Is something wrong with you?
Who is Sabrina, is she your girlfriend?
I have given up on real friends and now want to know about the personal lives of my blog friends.
but hot whiskey IS a person...isn't he? isn't he...?...oh shit...
totally not girlfriended...sabrina, i don't know, sabrina is the best...
personal fact of the day: i cried for an hour straight watching the "So Alone" episode of Six Feet Under this morning...
Eric, John has like 6 girlfriends, and a wife. You gotta scroll back through the old entries.
There's not much better than a well-developed boy-leg.
Hot Whiskey is two people.
I'm bored.
hot whiskey is indeed two people...
scratch that...i now believe hot whiskey is a hermaphrodite...
"You're Lance Armstrong, you gave breast cancer to Sheryl Crow."
It's 85 degrees in Houston too. I hate April. I hate Eliot for being right about April. He must have written "The Waste Land" in Houston because England is actually pretty in April. I want to be in England.
I spill my personal details on other people's blog.
I should be reading Eric's stuff on KaBLOW! now.
it's so beautiful here. it's 80 and verdant and all the flowers are blooming, bursting. bursting like a vas deferens. people googling "clitoris" have been ending up on my site.
but it is beautiful here. john will you come do my laundry too while you're at it? i've got about... 6 loads.
On your way to Jessica's place, stop by mine. A stack of books has collapsed and I am trapped underneath. I'll give your whiskey and nutella for your vas deferens.
In a society where children are taught not to talk to strangers, we grow up and share a space that cleanses our most intimate clothing-The Laundromat.
Hello,
I am one of the founding fathers of The University of Colorado at Boulder Printing Press called Subito Press. In this venture and part of the non-profit organization, the founders are putting together web journals about our own interests; the Laundromat is a space that strikes my curiosity. I would like to ask your permission to post your poem on our website under my interests.
I understand that laundry is in the title, but your background of chapbooks and your Colorado residence would be great for those who read our website-I would love to link them to your work. Also, if you have any work that speaks about laundry or laundromats I would be honored to make you and your work the center of my web journal. Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon.
