The opening went swell. I think we all went home happy, warm, and ready for bed. I met a lot of nice people and re-met a lot of nice people. Two thoughts were shared with me today that I’ll hold close to my heart for the next ten years. They were two thoughts from two different men that, combined, made me dry sob in the shower.
The windows are open tonight. Not all of them because I don’t want to get sick. But most of them.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Tonight, I’m thinking of my grandma. I’m thinking of that trip across the sea. The deer in the kitchen. The parakeet on the rooftop. The soul drifting up and out and about. The mistakes and the successes. The beautiful absurdity of life. The nights to come. And the salt rocks now adorning my grandmother’s shrine.
I feel like dancing.
Instead,
I’ll
rest.
