louisa may today

My name is Louisa. This is what I did today.
Last night in Seattle I celebrated the 29th birthday of my friend Jesse. He deflated my birthday present within two hours of presenting it to him.

Today in Seattle I took my Saturday summer stroll in the sun at Volunteer Park and came across an entire butcher shop of sausage dogs: 4 little dachshunds named Matthew, Todd, Nathan and Lucy Liu. 

This evening in Seattle I was told by a homeless man that I could be in the movies. Or maybe a Super Bowl commercial. Or at the very least a normal commercial. I’LL TAKE IT.

This evening in Bellevue I paid visit to four legged - and some three legged - friends at the Seattle Humane Society. Every cat, dog and critter inside this shelter needs a good home, but my heart leaped for Josephine, a little terrier with an under-bite…

As you walk past the big hounds, the neutered labs, the snappy chihuahuas and the howling pit bulls - all vying lovingly and energetically for your attention - you come to Josephine lying on her pillow. She will raise her head just so to look at you, then sigh and return to her slumber. She has been here too long.

Come and visit toothy J today. And maybe take her home?

Today in Seattle I came across a cat named Kegels, a man with a ginger beard who (no doubt) coordinated its growth to match his mustard cut-offs, and the showing times for Blue Velvet at the local Central Cinema in Capitol Hill. 

Seattle, please stop it.  

Today in Seattle the sun showed itself and I shone with a hint of perspiration. The same is forecast for tomorrow. There goes my plan to make friends this week. 

Today in Northern Washington I met three golden retrievers. I wish I didn’t wear black. 

Today in Seattle President Obama is in town. I’m so glad I wore pleather.
