here I sit

Tonight I find myself waiting, fingers at the ready, for something deep and thoughtful. Something wise and profound. I feel like something as monumental as breaking up with my first college boyfriend, finishing my first year of college, my brother's marriage, and moving back home for a short while would inspire some sort of beautiful feelings to be written down and shared with the world on my blog.
On the contrary.
My usual stream of consciousness writing has stopped.
I feel empty.
Empty of thoughts.
I feel so much, but nothing at all.
I want so much.
But can't.
For so long, I've been waiting.
And now, I'm realizing, that I've been waiting for the wrong things.
It's time for new dreams.
New things to wait for.
Or maybe, for waiting to stop all together.

I've missed you

I'm not sure why or how and I'm not even sure quite when, but I started playing ultimate Frisbee and my life has never been the same.

so naturally,
when I got home from the longest week of my life
all I wanted to do was see my friends
but mostly play some ultimate.
and that is precisely what happened.
and you know what...
it may have been a year since we all played together
but nothing had changed.
it was perfect.
the way it's always been with us.
and after playing barefoot yesterday
as always
all I could do was look down and say
Hello green feet.
I've missed you.

I decapitated a bug today!

I felt really bad, and then I remembered it was already dead.

"...then I'm going to the bathroom."
"Do you need help in the bathroom?"
"I feel like I'm three years old"

You're lucky. Today we opened a cooler full and it was full of squid. All of us almost puked.

That's like asking if I want to give away my first child! Yeah, let's dump it.

What are you looking at?
"Robber Fly Genitalia"
cool

I love my job.
