As I went through my day today, I had this constant picture in the back of my mind of me and Aaron in the parking lot of the Wendy's across the highway from my apartment, me in my slip-ons and ratty flannel shirt and him with his Fallen hoodie and messy hair. Late-night runs for fast food right before having to do homework are good enough to eat.

I have been making daily trips down to the animal shelter--it really is like a candy store for animal lovers. A huge selection of insanely cute dogs and puppies and even kittens, all spread out for one's choosing. That is, if I try not to think too much about the sad parts.
But I have been visiting the puppy we are hoping for! It's a nice 20 minutes to be had after work or class to go and see a familiar face.
I have been feeling sort of loner-ish lately.

I am loving my self-inflicted haircut. heck, maybe I won't ever pay for a haircut again. I should teach Aaron to cut girl's hair...he'd only have to learn one style, I've had the same hair since 7th grade!
(yikes...is that sad?)
Well, it has undergone gradual changes. Like the slow wearing-away of a mountain by the wind.
And then we would never have to pay for haircuts ever. We could move to the mountains and be hermits and self-sufficient.

for now: lynyrd skynyrd shirt, getting farther on vice city, coming home to a dark apartment, jack johnson's new cd, delicious shivery weather.
