used to be time was crucial

august 31.
where in the hell did the summer go?
what the hell was i doing all this time?

it couldn't have been nothing. but it feels like nothing- now that it's gone.

the end of summer always turns into a time of inventory- what with my birthday a week away and all. last year it was pretty grim. an unprecedented weight gain, another fall without returning to school, the seeds of another failed relationship looming in the midst with a mixture of baseless excuses explaining each thrown in for measure.

at least this fall holds what the last was most lacking: possibility.

i'm optimistic.

and all the gold dust in your eyes will reform into rain

Happy Pre-Birthday.

Every fall I watch people go off to school and lament my squandered future. And then I drink away the pain. It's practice for the looming holiday season.

optimism is the key. with optimism, all the other stuff can be made to fade away to memory.

new job, new season, new birth year, why not look up
