Wanted: Slippers
Feb. 9th, 2011 08:04 pmMy slippers are wearing out. This has been true for years, only it has reached the point where there is a two-inch diameter hole in the bottom. I have been looking for replacement slippers, but alas the fashion at the moment is thick rubber soles and fake lambswool up to your ankle, and I like backless velvet crepe-soled slip-ons, which no one seems to make, nor have made for decades except for the pair I own, which are dark blue and have beaded Chinese dragons on them. I am thinking of posting fliers around the neighborhood, lost-dog style. "Have you seen these slippers? Please call."
I have not only been sleeping badly; I have while asleep been moving the covers so that instead of covering me and Ciro, they cover me and the floor. When he tries to move them back to where they are, I growl a lot and generally have none of it. We have tried switching sides of the bed in hopes that I tug the blankets in one direction, which only happened to be away from Ciro. This has not been successful, and in fact I am not sure last night I managed to keep the covers on myself.
Very cold. Very exhausted. Trying to send submissions out between shows. Dressed like a Peruvian Cindy Lauper.
