Monday, August 4, 2008: I have never felt as exhausted as I do now,never in so much need of rest, deep, deep rest. Just let everything go and sleep.

Thursday, July 24, 2008: It just poured and poured and wouldn't stop and I shivered in my wet clothes--my black top and my jeans. I watched all night as the water came down. Futile. No way to stop it.

I sat on the steps of St. Bart's on Park Avenue and 50th. Quickly checking my purse, I discovered that my wallet was missing. The man ran away and I chased him down Park and then over to Lexington and the subway station. Police! Police! I shouted. Who would hear me at 3 in the morning? But I persisted and went after him. On one of the steps going to the trains, I saw my brown leather-like wallet open, face down. By some miracle almost everything inside it was still there. The thief had been a small time, cowardly thing.

Thursday, July 10, 2008: Today, early this morning, I fell on my face when I woke up from my subway naps. Hit my nose and my forehead.

That'd be great.

Thursday, July 3, 2008: In spite of our tremendously bad circumstances, Lauchita seems to love Manhattan. Today she lay in the sun. I got her out of her carrier and she discovered grass near us. That is her new favorite place--purring, purring away.

Now I am a homeless female, so is Lauchita, my cat.

Saturday, June 28, 2008: I feel like a nowhere woman, a woman without anchor, without a place that belongs to her and only her.

I was Number One with him.
