sept 10

so i was supposed to meet up with abs for lunch, but she cancelled. instead i hopped across the street to subway, where i got my usual, a footlong spicy italian on honey wheat. whe it came to toppings, i asked for lettuce, tomato, black olives, and banana peppers. the girl loaded normal amounts of lettuce and tomato, but gave me SEVEN slices of olive and SIX slices of pepper -all neatly ordered in a straight line in the middle of the sandwich. i was too busy being amazed at the orderly perfection of arrangement to be angry at the complete lack of toppings. however, now i regret not asking for more.

i also walked into the b&n in the mall and looked through their graphic novels. there was an adaptation of F Scott Fitzgeralds "the mysterious case of benjamin buttons." which i perused and i have to say, my interest is piqued. first of all, i didnt know it was written by f scott fitz, and second, the art in it is really awesome. i also like how each chapter is broken up by a portrait of ben butts, making it much like a memoir or biography or a mix of the two. anyways, its humorous and i might pick it up later.

and now for the complaining: i wasnt ready for swimming to start back up. i feel like i had finally found freedom and then wham! were back in the thick of things. but it is nice to see the kids again. it just makes my days so full that by the time i get home i have to prep for tomorrow and i dont have time to relax and unwind.

go listen to the new bound stems album. its fantastic.
