today it feels like the beginning of autumn. it could even be the first day of school. cool, humid, cloudy. i walked outside, and i was suddenly crowded with images and memories. hebrew school. the feel of a new pack of magic cards (that one's from israel). going school supply shopping and getting excited about it. and then just going back to school - mostly AFS memories. even now, my body isn't sure we're not going back there. it feels, briefly, like the chorus room, or the old lobby, or just outside, or auditioning for the play. or rehearsing for the play. i loved our theater so much...there was something so nice and warm and welcoming about it, especially the lobby. when it was nighttime, and it was all dark outside, and i was inside the lobby with its giant windowed front, i would somehow feel safe. i have so many crazy memories of that place.

but in the weather, there's also a sense of excitement that's associated with bryn mawr. it reminds me of seeing english house for the first time, and standing in the middle of merion green, and walking through taft. and this is all why i say that every kind of day is my favorite kind of day - because every kind of weather has something positive in my life associated with it.

i slept at nate's/max's last night, in molly's old room. there's a sign on the door that says, "little miss bryn mawr". i felt good about that.
