Ode to Henley


So I had this friend named Henley
There were loads of things she would send me
My favorite of all
Was the vegan hemp balm
That I could rub on my tired ass at the end of the day


I swear I do actually go out in the field, every day except Fridays. We just find a way to spend the nights as well.

Henley, I felt you deserved an ode. It’s not a great one, the one I thought of yesterday was better. But of course I didn’t write it down and now have forgotten it. Current ode will have to do for now. Your packages always brighten my days and seem to know just what day I need them. That’s what she said.

So no one panic-but I’ve found a new best friend. He’s my first international one, and he’s pretty special. He was raised by parents who run a marine biology research station on a small island on the northernish coast of Australia-Lizard Island. And I’m going to miss him till I see this best friend of mine again. So, sorry if the pics seem to paralleling my mood.

i love my ode!! i'm glad you liked your package, it got there really quick. i'm slightly disturbed at how handsome of a man you make... lil j told me she informed you about my current man situation. i think it's hilarious. check your e-mail. i'm so very happy and i feel that the single life is glorious. i went hiking yesterday in saguaro np. went out last night and ended up drinking and eating a peanut butter cup as big as my face. what can i say, i like food that's a challenge. next weekend i'm going to kartchner caverns, so i'll let you know how that is. i do believe people in tucson think i'm cool because i say things like "my friend who's in south africa..." thanks for making me cool.

ahem...michelle is very vulgar. another week is nearly over. i am successfully avoiding a presentation i need to make and then give in ten hours. i am poor. so poor. so poor, in fact, that i will be returning to the zoo. plus, i love unisex uniforms. yes!! i made some yummy spaghetti with fake-meat-soy-chunklet sauce. then i made some horrible joke to denise about how it was "soy good". then i laughed for about five minutes. when i'm deprived of sleep i find myself to be very funny. these days, i'm fucking hilarious. it does not help that my upstairs neighbor is a nympho with a squeaky matress. seriously, 5:30am is no time for sex. i would hit a man if he tried to crawl on top at that hour. you may be getting another package. i saw some vegan cookies i want to buy just to send to you. miss you.
