chaos and amtrak

Zadie Smith (Bold Type Magazine) From Modesto to Santa Ana and back

returned from a trip to southern california, via amtrak. it was $78 bucks for the round-trip affair.

it was nice seeing friends and family, and strange for me to stop by at my old job at the hotel. it just seems like some extended vacation, and that i should be back there working whenever the "weekend" is through.

upon my return, i learned that the girl from sactown whom i was dating is now dating a dude named "steve" not that i put much effort into it, but its still a bummer for that thing to go south

but i cant feel too bad about it, seeing as i was still flirting with other girls and having dreams involving other women.

she was cool, but she wasnt for me. she doesn't dig the whole "moving around - not putting down roots" thing.

some folks just want to progress in a straight, steady line. and if i could do that, maybe i'd like to as well.

but i have the wanderlust, the ease with an unsettled dilemma never to be resolved - those things bring peace to me.

or not.

i'd like to have the settled, steady life. but i also like chaos, and its the painful spike which splits the two that interests me.

Revenge of the Catholic Schoolgirls!
