Stepping out
Dec. 29th, 2003 11:27 amToday I am packing for a classic getaway. Backpack full of costumes and paraphenalia firmly in hand, I will be jetting southwards for a reunion of like minds.
I am so thankful to have such brilliant and charming friends, who only grow more bizarre and endearing as we age. A few words:
David Levy, who piloted many of our early adventures in a shit-brown two-tone Chrysler E-class that talks, equipped with a most comforting hood for laying on and contemplating the vast sky and stars. A joker with expressive eyebrows and a certain kinetic energy, expressed in small dances and given to quickly falling into nap.
Clide, mistress of fun. Firm and gentle both, quiet and winking and graceful. Red-headed and long-armed. Has a knack for finding the most gorgeous places to dwell, and for picking out bikes.
Ben, imp. Beloved by many, among whom he distributes his love in a generous spread. Apt to tumble and leap. Scruffy and competent.
Jonathan, benignly steeped in wickedness. Pleasing and warm, with a curious space between the eyes.
Erin Jones, endlessly giving, tall and Venus-like. Engaged in creation, spinning and whipping clay into forms from her imagination.
David F., sylph-like, occult. Can rap and sing old home songs with alacrity. Able to squeeze into the smallest of confines, miraculously. Languid.
Karen, tiny and sparkling and fierce.
Kelly, smooth, brave and decisive and possessed of an instinct for the wondrous. If you were stranded on a desert island and someone had to set your broken bone, you would pick Kelly to do it.
Who knows what we will get up to?
