or maybe its the post-it sketch book that we have been keeping
i am spending a lot of time co-creating
happily being half of a team.

i have this lemongrass colored sketch book
i keep in my bag
it has become a working collaborative narrative on our time outside the house.
we talk smack about people in there
while we are out eating
and when we are at cafe shane and can't talk out loud about buffy and chad sitting next to us and we can NOT figure out where the hell they came from and what the FUCK they are doing in my neighborhood...maybe getting some of the 'integrated NYC experience"?
and then there is a drawing of the frat boy who sat next to us at Chumley's who sulked and sulked at his date and we were so glad to be dykes when we saw his carrying on.
we take it out when we can't talk
and it is called the post-it book
because when there were people around and we couldn't say anything that would give us away
or when things would get hard and i would get paralyzed and couldn't talk
we would write notes to eachother
on post-its
in my past lives, i would get like that sometimes
and i would go into shut down
and sometimes all i needed was a hug
and i wouldn't even be able to ask for it
and then i found her
and then i found post-its to get me past the paralysis
and now i can talk
even when its hard
it sometimes takes me awhile to open my mouth and say what i need to
but i do it
because its that important
