it's been a little bit, most updates are not too noteworthy. i started working — it's been interesting and mostly an excuse to drive to the city. smooth concrete buildings with a glass roof to remind you that you too are a person just living on a planet of rock. we are one in the same in that way and i hope i can remember that for as long as i live. i took a short traveling trip to see a concert 6 hours away, had a great time soaking in big crowds where the ground shakes beneath you. i close my eyes when i listen to music because i'm convinced it will touch my soul faster.
it's getting hot over here now. gum on the pavement melts and burns if you touch. i find myself looking at the sunset a little too long some nights. i wish you were here with me when i do. waiting's just a game and i might lose because i hate to do it for so long. you say the words i say. you think the things i think. i walk the way you walk. i am reminded of you in everything i do and it's clarity that no pair of glasses could give. you don't just give me butterflies, but a calming of my constant nerves with a quick glance. i miss you when the air sits still because you make it stir with your laughter.
