'And the worms in the wind are beginning to blow'

The tadpoles are growing legs. I can hear them plop in and out of the water in a bowl on my table on occasion. I walked to The Woodshed and picked up a job application, the sky was hazy and thick and the heat was nice. I sat on my porch and drank water. I think that summer might be nice after all.

Cecilia, Efrim, and Abraham. Efrim and Abraham are twins, but if you look really close, Efrim is slightly bigger and a bit darker.

When they look really similar and the other one looks really different. And thank you. My little sister wanted to name Cecilia 'Squiggly' and I set my foot down. I was actually looking online how to spell it and I came across this website called 'Baby Names' or something, and on the site people rated names. I'm not kidding, either; 1 was 'Hate it!' and 5 was 'Love it!', Abraham got a 2.1, and Cecilia's name means 'Blind'. That was a really wandery paragraph.

I work with a girl who works there, too. Her name is Jaqui, and she told me to never bus at the woodshed because they treat their bussers like shit...What did you apply for?

Haha, I was going to ask Ashley if she knew anyone who worked there because I wanted to know if the job would be any good. I think my two options are busser or dishwasher, and I was actually leaning towards busser, but now I'm not sure. I also want to get a second opinion, because some people just complain.

ahhhhhhh you still have those tadpoles? I was half expecting someone to throw them away in the middle of the night and tell your sister some sort of lie.

*My mom was actually really nice to them and went outside and got them water and was really worried that this pine needle looking thing of a bug that got into their water was a parasite and actually gasped when it started swimming towards one of them.
