Last night I had a dream about cheeseburgers and french fries. Incredible. I was just there amongst their greatness. I didn’t eat any of them, I would’ve taken too much away from their excellence had I did. It was beautiful.
I’m so proud of my little brother. Yesterday, we went to see McArthur’s production of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, in which he spent months and months directing.
In the Program, we were making fun of the “Director’s Thoughts” where he spoke of how “the chaos of everyday life comes from our own imperfections and contradictions” to “the scars that mark their personality and conscience make them likeable and detestable at the same time”.
He’s not trying to sound pretentious or smart;it’s not for show. That’s how Jamie really speaks. He has the vocabulary of a 30-something college professor, and he’s only 17. But then he can turn around and quote Super Troopers with me -“I’m sorry, but did you just say MEOW?”- which is always great.
I don’t want him to leave for college. I see letters and packages addressed to him from UCF in the mail and I want to “accidentally” brush them into the trash. oops.
I said I was going to quit Target and I did it.
I asked for some distraction and I got it.
For the most part, things are going my way. Hooray!
jamie,
