Hey, I just realized today is the first of August. Yay? I’m looking forward to autumn.

So I’m up, 5:10AM, sitting in the dark dining room, considering making pancakes. If I do, I have to cook soon, as I want to hit the Y at 7. What’s on NPR now? BBC, right? Maybe I’ll listen to the BBC and make pancakes. Life could be way worse, don’t you think?

Yesterday was ok. I read at the coffee shop, hung out at home, watched part of The Matrix (whatever happened to Carrie Ann Moss?) and worked on some poems. T described every single Call of Duty development. N and I watched Pawn Stars. I crashed on the bed upstairs and stared at the ceiling. I wrote out some postcards and tried to breathe deeply.

So what am I doing today? I want to learn how to knit and/or crochet. What’s the difference between the two? I have no idea. Maybe I’ll run a search. Can you tell I need coffee? More later. Meditation then pancakes. Happy August.
