She went to war. I have so many thoughts and feelings about so many things and yet I'm so tired. I should be going to bed, I was about to go to bed, then I remembered it was basically June 1, I mean now it is June 1 here, but I like to think of it as still May 31 because I haven't gone to bed yet. Anyway, that means I need to send my mom some money to cover our portion of the house. So I came back to my computer to do that, and then I checked one other thing, and then I wrote a quick email, and then I checked another email, then I looked at another thing, then I thought I may as well do a freewrite since I'm still up, anyway!
There are some Fringe shows I'm pretty interested in seeing. I should make a list, I should reserve some tickets. Gotta make it happen. I want to see if Brissa can come join me for a show, and Bree, and Heidi and Tom. Maybe Molly! I want to see friends. I want all of us, that is, my household and me, to go to Fringe HQ and hang out there for a bit and enjoy how fun it is and just enjoy this work I do. But I also want to support shows that I think are worthy of supporting. Which isn't to say that. Well, what am I trying to say? I guess, that I don't necessarily just want to see every show from every person I meet at Office Hours...I want to see shows from people whose work I especially want to support, whose stories I especially want to see, and people I personally know but not just that I know, but whose voices I'm especially interested in learning more about. And so I do want to be slightly picky about it.
That's time. I feel like I wanted to say more. I wanted to talk about complacency and how easy it is to fall into it. I wanted to talk about how I want to be more vocal about things that matter. I wanted to talk about how people believe some stuff that I find so outside the realm of what's rational. You know, like spiritual warfare type stuff. And I don't believe that, but I do believe that we lose our humanity by dehumanizing others. And what is "humanity" to me, but maybe what some would call the "spirit"? I dunno, man.
