this morning i awoke to the sound of clapping hands...then the thought finally passed through my mind that it must be some event for parents weekend. i wish i had woken up, heard that sound, and known that among the clapping hands were those of my parents...but no such luck.
i want to swiftly remove myself from campus and go back to portland. of course, there are a few people (one in particular) whom i would like to bring with me...
if only this could happen, life would be delightful.
but instead, i walk around the campus, seeing my friends and others (whom i normally see drunk and staggering through the halls) with their moms, dads, and siblings. oh how i wish it was me.
but at least i get to see it all, and appreciate the fact that some people's parents are here...
i'll just enjoy meeting my friend's parents, and secretly pretend they are mine...
secretly pretend i am okay right now.
