I'm up too late crafting as I'm prone to do when leslie is out of town. I'm really not supposed to do it--I get off my schedule and start getting tired, lonely and sad. by the time she finds her way back home I'm a mess. anyways while I was working the computer played a simon and garfunkel song and it was nice so I took the music off shuffle and hung out awhile feeling the waves of nostalgia--high school. discovering simon and garfunkel, cat stevens and the beatles. poetry and hippies and artsy boys. melanie and tye and I watching beatles movies, converting our jeans into bell bottoms and trying to make our own love beads. merran and I writing poetry and angsty essays. the cool guys with their fancy SLRs and awkward fumbling in the dark room. my red car.
it seems like I've been through 500 lifetimes. my life now, in boston, is so removed from everything. April Come She Will. even my early boston days feel like another lifetime. everything was so unknown and raw. I was so alone. and now here I am in my furnished home. furnished with my things. working on my 4th year in this apartment. can you even believe it

<3 You're so neat. I'm so glad to have been in one of those lifetimes!
High school was a few life times ago for me too. But you and Tye were what got me through that life :) I wish we all could live closer dang it! I miss both of you and the closeness we used to have.
