Ho-hum-home

[coffeekat]

Back in MA.

The things that need to be done: get a job, arrange haircut appointments, crown a tooth (king?), deal with the crushing weight of responsibility for the world suddenly thrust upon my shoulders.

Response to these duties: sleep. Nap. DreamIt was lovely to graduate. It didn't rain and Brian Billick made a little bit of an ass of himself

...his underlying theme and most prominent metaphor involved chickens, pigs, and breakfast.
Three of my favorite things. I'm writing an e-mail about them now.

I'm not sure if I can laugh about this more as a) a rational, normal human being; b) an obnoxiously over-educated elitist; or c) a writing seminars major).
I pretend I'm 2 of those things. I've recently started pretending that I got a writing sems minor in college. By "pretending" there, I do mean "lying". Because it's a fun, victimless lie.

YAY YOU'RE BACK LET'S NOT HANG OUT EVEN THOUGH WE LIVE OMGTHISCLOSE TO EACH OTHER!

There are all sorts of strangers coming out of the woodwork. My sister saw Paul Kremsky at the library yesterday. I just ran into Minns. This town is no longer safe for the likes of us. We will go to Walgreens and discover someone we ought to remember behind the checkout counter, and it will be five kinds of awkward. This is the only reason I am glad that we don't have any bars here, otherwise we'd be running into our drunken former-classmates more often than I'd care to. That, and they'd probably serve shit beer, because this town is run by cheap-ass old people who frequent Jimmy's.

Oh man, do I hate running into people (ah, social awkwardness, you haven't failed me yet!). Especially since when I do, I invariably am at the peak of my "Bag-lady-who-hasn't-been-near-a-shower-in-years" look. Such is life. Anyhow, I fully intend to clamor for your company at some point, even if only for a trip to the yarn store. Once I get over my inertial tendency to stay at home. It will happen. At least by August. Maybe.

Sibling tangent: I was looking at my neighbors prom pictures and alternately oohing and disparaging the dress choices, when I realized one of the girls in the gaggle was your sister. She looked very cute. Also, much older than any of our siblings have any right to be.
