[i]


12 p.m. I get out of bed. Not enough sleep.

Phil: “I’m leaving you. And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.”

Breakfast: Hot Cream of Wheat Cereal with Vanilla, Brown Sugar, and Milk. Orange Mango Juice. Zinc and Alfalfa.

I go to a warehouse near Witchduck Road to help out with the shooting of JoAnna’s music video. I play the melodica along with Josiah on the ukulele and two others. All of us pretend to be running away from a giant Frankenzilla JoAnna in the forest.

Phil lies down on the floor in my room. He’s concerned about his emotional health.

Lunch: Tuna Salad Sandwich with Lettuce and Tomato. Salt N Vinegar Chips with Avocado. Green Tea.

I’m an Ant Killer: I lay down some cotton balls mixed with Boric Acid and Syrup around the perimeter of the house.

I take my bike to Michael’s for some acrylic paint and then to Big Lot’s for a sink strainer.

Practice at the storage unit with Chris and Chad.

Farewell Dinner with Phil: Kidney Beans and Garlic Mushrooms with Rice. Steamed Artichoke with a dip consisting of Plain Yogurt, Garlic, Cucumber, Olive Oil, and Lemon Juice. Yuengling Beer.
Renee comes over and joins in on the feasting and camaraderie.
Renee returns my Sufjan Stevens CD!!!
Os Mutantes playing on Phil’s laptop.
Listening to Renee and Phil discuss iambic pentameter.
Phil: “I just like everything strong.”
Renee sings a Rufus Wainwright song.
Foosball with Art, Renee, and Ryan.
Sitting and deciphering the illegible writing on the BQE record.
Phil noodles on the guitar – “noodling = organic composing”
Me: “I just like to share things with people.”

Phil shuffles through boxes of old notebooks and writings of his, “It’s so weird to read about how your mind used to think and how it doesn’t think like that anymore.”
Phil explains how he hasn’t written as much since he hasn’t had his own room – being around people and hanging out all the time. “It’s nice not stressing out over that internal monologue.”

Sleep around 3:30 a.m.
