smells like sunscreen

only two days of school left, and then i'm done with this school forever.  i don't want to be all nostalgic and say that it felt like just yesterday, but...

it really did feel like yesterday.  yesterday i was in 4th grade with mr moretti and yesterday i was lost in the smithsonian with emily and megan and yesterday i was a brand new high school kid afraid of everything that moved. and tomorrow, who knows?

wishing for chrystanthumums

i can see the kid across the street through my window.  he's playing with one of those wooden stick things, the ones they swordfight with.  he's spinning it around, walking around the driveway.  cute little brownish house.

and the charo chicken people next to them, in the yellow two story house, have their garage open and all their gazillions of cars and vans parked out front. 

this is still weird.

but i think it's getting better.
