5 bucks for Lunch

Ready....GO!

It's that time of year again, and I'm old enough now to come right out with it. I freakin love first days of school. So many people are on campus again. And so many faces I recognize. I didn't think I missed everybody but I guess I did.

Last night I packed a lunch for school, and like an idiot I left it in the fridge. No big deal I thought and planned on running home and grabbing it anyways between classes. Instead I found 5 bucks. The universe has a way of rewarding optimism I think. Maybe it's out of pity--

so much optimism is misplaced. People aren't all good, our plans don't always work out. I'll be exhausted in a month....I know these things. I just don't care. I still think this is a good world, and today, I'm just so incredible happy to be here, and so happy you could join me.

Peace and greetings from Asteroid B-612, and have a wonderful day at school!

In Review

It just felt like living. It just felt like time passing-- like where I was, was just where I was. Not like I was supposed to be there or anywhere else really. 

I think I'm going to take a bath, drink a glass of wine, and maybe pack a lunch for school tomorrow. It's weird to be an adult and still picking out your clothes for your first day of school. 

Well anyways, I'm not saying it was a bad summer. It was pretty grand in its way. You know that feeling you get when you wake up and try to figure out whether something really happened yesterday or if you dreamed it? Or rather, the feeling you get when you figure out for sure that it happened? 

That's the one.
