i've got a boy crush. ok? ok.
right now i am eating an avocado with honey. it's cinco de mayo! and today at the hotel my old dentist walked by and yelled "CAROLINE! HAVE YOU BEEN FLOSSING?". and this girl i've had a crush on since i was five checked into a room with her husband of two or three hours. she was in her wedding dress. she looked gorgeous. he was in a baseball cap. he looked boring. and goddamn lucky.
this summer i'm driving up to camp every chance i get. every time i have a couple days off in a row and can swing the gas money. i'll throw a spare tire (a bicycle a flashlight a fishing pole and a couple changes of clothes) in the back of the car, get the keys and passbooks from gram, and drive the four hours late late at night. keep a tally of deer and moose i see on the way. and get there early in the morning when it's just getting light, so i can see moosehead lake and the camp and the overgrown driveway. i'll catch fish to for lunch and pick blueberries for pies and lay on the shore til i get hot enough to swim and swim til i get cold enough to get out again.
(steve's ashes are up there right now. we're going to all get together and spread them this summer. but it'd be nice to be there where he is beforehand, too. i miss him.)
ok. it's too damn nice to be in this library. out i go.
