i am all over the place these days. but lets see where the magic happens. let me clear these clothes and papers off of here. watch where you step. watch your fingers. aight check it out, its a futon. it folds up and you can watch tv. you could try to read but there's a tv, so good luck. there are more cell phones than people, more ointments than ailments, and it's all good. we got a couple of posters, a couple of newsclippings, and in our mirror the picture of the man that's getting our vote come november. the trash can is full, there are clean sheets somewhere but not on the bed. these dressers we found on the curb, so they match, but we're leaving them behind. we have a pair of mascots, a black cabbage patch kid and a stuffed retriever. those extension cords you are tripping on are perfectly safe. back to the magic kingdom, we got baby wipes and a box of goodies for the freaks, y'all dont really need to see those just take my word, nahmean? and for the ladies, we got a step ladder so she can reach up in the closet.

now let's take a look in the fridge. we got some old leftovers and take out containers that i got to throw out. i killed the beer last night. we had some pomegranate juice, now its bottle filled with water. we got some ingredients from the last time i cooked, but we packed a lot of that shit up a while ago. for your roach needs, we have boric acid and ash trays (ha ha). let's check the dining room, first the door to the vecinas place. i think it opens to hers. she's cool, la vecina. we got a box of random crap, paper to shred and old videos from someone else. a bag of bags for shopping at price rice, wet clothes from the beach, or throwing away plaster. very useful. we got a little bar area, packed that up too. someone gave us a bunch of wine glasses, that was nice. then there's our garden, we got some tropical leafy viney type plants, some rosemary, and cilantro that i planted from seed that didnt really turn out.

let's move to the baffroom, watch your head and watch your step. this is where i shave my head at. we got a shower/tub combo, nice tile you know. thats where we shit at. some people come home just to shit, so we know we have a nice toilet. its kind of the best part of the house except the wall kind of leaks when it rains and it smells like mold.

i think that's it, we could go upstairs but thats kind of boring. the landlord put a couple of windows in which was good, but we're pretty much moved out of there. for a brief time there was the lab and the ill-fated "hazy hot and no headroom" summer mixtape. i still have a lot of 300 assorted portuguese records up there. this would be the space for boxes and bags of shit that she wants to give away, but these are instead littered throughout the 3rd floor, hallway (fire hazard!) and car. the car is another cribs episode entirely, stay tuned.

for a preview,

walk towards la vroa and past some fencas de block y hierro and you'll come up on our new spot. it's kind of a mess too, in its own right. its got an artist loft, i won't belittle it by saying 'young artist' but its gonna be happenin, its goin down! first we have to move out of here and fill a dumpster and well, there's actually a lot. if i could find some clean clothes i could get my ass over there to work. and this one's on the phone with the phillippines talking about 20 hour flights, while she can't feel her back, going to miss her doctors appointment... my fingers are fucked up, one is a huge blister and another looks like an unsuccessful skin graft- we're on the DL over here. hopefully its not season-ending.
