it's no wonder that i haven't felt that sunny lately when i sleep through most of the day. monday will be a welcome lengthy awakeness, shucking away the slippers i've been wearing on my brain. i hear need curdling in voices beneath my own breath, tucked in to bedclothes for my own good. organs and rattles are brimming with disdain, humming single sounds; a pointed notion that always emerges from the lower deck when the sails are full with wind. older getting young, or young's getting old; it's the pieces, the same instruments, that grind up the self-acceptance... but there seems to be something more purposeful to use of each, whether i've chose them or not.

sometimes, i just turn my cell off.

Well, don't credit me with any sort of motivation just yet. I still have a chance to hit up law school the first day of classes and run screaming right back out the doors again. And anyone who told you that Grinnellians were either 1) upstanding or 2) not lollygaggers was a liar. tongue

By the way, I love how you've described that feeling. So eloquent.

Hope you're feeling better soon, though. How's school? smile

So, were you in Iowa last fall, then? Like, in early November, on that night when all those tornadoes ripped through the state and hit a bunch of towns like Woodward and Stratford, and possibly made it into Ames (I believe--I think there was a big football game at Iowa State that night, because I remember everyone talking about how lucky it was that no storms hit the stadium)?

'Cuz this guy was definitely there.

Kind of interesting. smile
