finally...

got a call from Friends for full day December 9. Okay, so we can relax a little. Ofcourse, computing things in my head; how much money do we (I) have, as usual. But no sense of not being wanted, my favorite fantasy. Yesterday, toyed with the idea of going to Aqueduct, did not do it, went to South Fourth instead, had my free pizza (one and a half slices, really fills me up)--then, ofcourse another walk, this one from Williamsburg east to Grand, to Bushwick Ave south to Moore, to Bogart Street (where Archive is now called Swallow) then down Central to Myrtle to DeKalb to Broadway to Goodbye Blue Monday, my first visit inside the place. No bartender at the bar; which was fine by me, just wanted to take a pee, which I did. Continued on Broadway, explored a little of Hart Street, near Utica. still fascinated by the way the streets bounce off Broadway, both the east-west and the north south. Wanted to go further, but decided not to; darkness had set in, so had emptier streets, and the area begins to be ungentrified, around Kosciousko Street J station. Returned South fourth and had a nice talk with Evan. Must know more about the geography of that part of Brooklyn, from Kosciousko Street to the junction. Has a mythic feeling for me---though I can't say why.
