…and the living is easy…

This photo isn’t from the summertime, but I’m sitting here imagining living closer to old friends like Marin in the photo or so many other friends from high school. Or in this case as far back as middle school. Marin and I met while riding the bus to Lanier Middle School, and that’s where I met Casey, too. She’s made a life for herself & her family in Lubbock, Texas. That’s far from everything, by the way.

Why do I dislike summer? Sometimes aggressively, even. What’s my problem?

The usual stuff. It’s too hot. I’m busy with both work and private life. It’s manageable.

Wonder if I could ever withstand a Texas summer again. Hope I never have to find out.
