I am overstating my case, which is quite possibly offcentered to begin with, but I don't care, because this picture makes me feel like I'm worth putting in a photo album somewhere. I think, I can't say for sure, but I feel like there was this glitch in the system and I felt like I had started to fail at actually living something worth nostalging about, that I was running on fumes of past memories without pressing to make new ones. I feel a little bit better about it, right now. And right then, too. I think going to the Coast is pretty much the most perfect thing, usually, to fix things and everything. I still don't think I've had a negative experience with it, ever. It's what the world needs now. That and cocoa and cats on laps.
