i noticed you were scared
Spring Break 2006! Yeah! Whooo!
I'm glad it's over, all of this travel and such. Bio-luminescent dolphins, leopard sharks, Pinback, 40's, late-night bike rides, tight blue underwear, drunken kayaking, saying goodbye. It will be comforting to return to the routine.
On our car ride home, Karla and I talked about the increasing frequency of goodbyes that last an indefinite amount of time. I realize that for the next three months I will say goodbye to all of my friends. Some sooner than others. Some people who I see very infrequently but most will be people who I rely on everyday for support and humor. This is something I expected when I signed the contract, but I'm just shocked as to how it feels. I find the particular emotion to be completely new for me. I suppose that I'll be able to describe it as soon as I feel it more and become used to it.
Caught a Norfolk & Western show in the city on Friday night. I didn't have anyone to go with so I met Laura there. While I was waiting I met the drummer who I've had a bit of a fascination with since I saw them perform in San Luis. I swear, I've never felt like a groupie before, but when I struck up a conversation and bought her a beer my heart was racing and I was bumbling like a 14 year old talking to Justin Timberlake.
So, when we got home to San Luis, I went out to the back to check on my tomatoes only to find utter desolation. Some critter had come in and decimated the entire crop, everything.
