Light Bulb

A few things I've realized lately:

- I need to always wear bug repellent.
- I should not cut my own bangs.
- I don't need to drive my car as often as I think I do.
- I am not good at asking people for things.
- Summer is here.Which means accepting perpetual sweatiness and developing a leg shaving regimen...two things I strongly dislike.
- Cut-offs are my new obsession
- Hammocks = a peaceful heart
- We overuse contractions when we speak.
- I have missed going to the library. So I paid off the exuberant my $14 fine and went back.
- I should not check out more than 2 books at a time.
- There is a reason that people are asleep at 3 a.m.
- Popsicles are a refreshing treat.
- Keeping my room clean is going to be as hard or as easy as I make it.
- Same with doing laundry.
- Staying at home reading a book isn't doing nothing. It's doing something.
- It is impossible to be able to do everything, to see everything, to read everything, to hear everything. I can be overwhelmed by that, or I can surrender to the fact that I can't. That doesn't mean not struggling with the fact I can't....
- Things that take a long time are really good for me. I didn't realize how impatient I really am.
- Sodoku is not that bad.
- Raspberries > strawberries
- A plane ride to get to the people I love is not impossible.

Adjective-less

the first day back is always the worst.
no, it's the second.
but the $64 airport parking might have made the first day the worst.

i miss too many people right now. what a blessing it is to love so many people, even over a thousand miles.
