The Destruction of Tenochtitlan
Wednesday June 19,1996
I subbed for Mrs. Gueler's class. They're so good. I finished the whole paper plus the crossword puzzle before lunch and I read William Carlos Williams' imagining of the destruction of Tenochtitlan. Williams offers a sort of archetypal psychology for Cortez and Colombus, as if they were not the architects of their fates, but puppets of it.
One of the girls in this class stroked my arm. I told her to go to lunch.
My car is very dirty. My mom wrote in the filthy film on the window, "Mom loves you." My sister wrote, "Happy Farter's Day."
The kids are writing sentences with adjectives. I'm not going to softball again today. I probably won't type, either. I'll take a nap when I get home and fix a garden burger, maybe wash my truck when it cools down, then read a short story and send "Miracle Mile" somewhere.
School will be over in half hour. After I wash the car, I'll treadmill for an hour, burn off the half a chocolate cookie I ate today. I wish I had some pot. I get paid Friday. I have to get an exhaust leak on my car fixed so I can pass my smog test and get my truck registered. Quino could probably get it passed despite the leak, but it might be part of the reason I can't breathe. I'd like to take my car to Tom Graves on Pietro Drive to get Freon for the air conditioning, but that's the street my dad lives on.
I've still got to straighten out my desk.
What else?
Mayra is labeling a map of the US with velcro letters.
I want to find a new school to work at. I'll probably watch pornos and jack off today.
Dina called last night to talk about Shirelle's stupidity.
Nabokov knows. So does Sting.
My nose is peeling. If you finished your work today, then you're all done. No homework. What else? I'll finish this when I get home.
