First Floor: foundations, mens clothing, hats and shoes, fine jewelry, stability, comfort and subtlty. Street level, three exits
Upper floors, racing thoughts and crazy running around (children's, toys, women's fashions and the WC/lavatories some women's rooms even have lounges, vinyl covered benches in a separate anti-room...)fire exits only...
basement, dark, no windows and furnance, plumbling and repair and maintenance...maybe clearance items...concrete steps and maybe a lift to the sidewalk loading zone.
Elevator going up, Floor please?

hi sar,I am glad to hear you are out in the sunshine, maybe I should just change gears and go out side and just sit...
I have been thinking I am going to pull the stop elevator button and stop between floors or go to the top floor with the linens and beds and the carpets and couches and hide 'til night and tear out the stuffing and make a little nest inside a stuffed couch...I have been confused sorting books trying to figure out how to make a open place, for my art stuff... it is like one of those puzzles where you have to move the number square 10 zillion times in directions you don't want to go in order to get where you want to go? to put them in order? Then I think I have done so much and I look and nothing seems changed...it is expanded...and it is stirring up the dust and I know what will happen in a couple days, I will be in the basement with the black dog...does this become self fullfilling prophacy?
mouse mumbling and pushing all the buttons

Did you go walking today? Or wogging as it was called in the early nineties?
Did you know Poland wins the fast walking event in the Olympics all the time - men and women? This disturbs my somewhat machismo Polish husband.
Have you ever been to Macy's in NY? Made the mistake of agreeing to go with mother-in-law on Thanksgiving weekend. That's a manic experience.
Thought of another silly movie - The Christmas Story. It's like that, isn't it, knowing what the roller coaster brings. Sliding down that terrible slide after seeing Santa Clause (does Santa Clause have an e?) and the elves are mean and self-centered, and you find you forgot to ask for what you wanted for Christmas.
I always want to stand on my head when I'm manic. My dogs think it's great fun.
Let me off at the winter coats, please - I need to be practical right now. :)
- K.

believe it or not! I have never been to NYC. It is on my list. I will avoid Macy's on Thankgiving and Christmas tho...thanks for the 'heads up'

Sliding down that terrible slide after seeing Santa Clause (does Santa Clause have an e?)No, I am pretty sure about that one, though 'clause' as in 'clause of contract' has an 'e' or maybe it is claws...

> I always want to stand on my head when I'm manic. My dogs think it's great fun.hmmm, I will try that one, maybe I need more blood to my head...

> Let me off at the winter coats, please - I need to be practical right now. :)So, not the Fur Department, The Womens Sports Wear, Women's Fine OuterWear, or the Sporting Goods and Camping Gear Department?

> - K.BTW this is one of those old elevators that has the little seat for the operator and the metal gate that clanks and opens and closes with a handle...and you can see the floors go by, the number of the floor is painted on the wall that goes by...watch your fingers, stand back please.
mouse having fun remembering old department stores...

dear mouse,
how's the organizing going?
your mention of the "black dog" jolted me. before i knew that the black dog was a famous metaphor for depression, i dreamt of a black dog attacking me, and then i finally pushed it out the door. the next day, i woke up feeling okay for the first time in months.
i do believe in self-fulfilling prophecy.
come play with me on the waterbeds, pillow-fight me, we'll make a big stack of pillows at the end of the escalotor and JUMP into them feathers a-flyin'...
an old mall to me is one in which they still had a smoking section in the food court and no valet parking.
take it easy kid,
sar
