  • Baseball Practice

    Things I have time to do when I forget to bring my homework to baseball practice: Log in to my blog for the first time in years Write a blog post for the first time in years Respond to people I’ve been ignoring for the past ten days Try to pay tuition and fail, remembering…

  • The Summer Things

    I have all the goals. I can’t help myself. The year goals, the month goals, the week goals, the day goals. And always, always, always the summer goals. Summer has always felt like a time of doing as well as a time of not-doing. How these two coexist in my mind, I couldn’t say. The…
