"you're like the one mating with the ones already mating just to catch on for the ride"

it's like my brother who is now 18 and will be accompanying my parents on their 25th wedding anniversary to washington state camping. my parents (and now brother) are returning to this house in the mountains where they had their honeymoon. the house is for looking at mt. st. helens back in the day when it was into erupting and being a volcano. i am kind of sad i get to miss this... or am i?

a senior community is next to my workplace this summer. sometimes we look out the windows and watch them play bocce ball down below. the women spectate. before everything, though, they stretch. although they don't know it, i stretch with them sometimes but within my studio. someday i have come down and cheer them on.

i'm redoing my resume, i think i wanna put my birth year on there. so should death be "t.b.a.?"
