Sidewalk Insights

On a plain piece of paper, stapled to a street post I read:

"Alarm clocks kill dreams"

Amen

A Monday Night, of All Nights...

Woken up at 1, a yelling moaning roomate on drugs. She passes out on the couch and is dead other than the fact that she's breathing. Sirens and lights, the works for Nicole! A living room full of paramedics, waking the dead. Her wretching and panicking, not knowing her birthday. Finding her escort service business cards in her purse instead of her ID and carecard, laying suspicions to rest. They take her away and the house is quiet again. Now try to go back to bed!
Moving out and living in the city is just full of good stories!

Oh, how the time flys...

...when your nose is stuck in a book, every spare waking moment. and you read and you read and you read. filling the brain with ideas and theories and questions and answers. feeling totally saturated with the schoolness of it all, like it's going to spill and you'll lose it if you don't rein it in soon, hold it, prove that you know it. so it's time for midterms and papers, to solidify it and trap it into something. and the stress of it all! the need to get the grades, the need to get it all done, the lack of time to do it all. oh the life of a student. so wonder why i do it all, this time of year. when it's all over, i decide that the learning and thinking is all worth the while, but those shores are far away yet, and all i can think of is Masochism!
