you snooze you lose
but thankfully i've not been snoozing. i feel a bit like i'm losing, but that's just cause time is so crammed of errand like things (moving, painting room, cleaning room, listening to cat meow meow too much at 6am, reading the commerical drivers license booklet *boring*) and not the previous things of summer (volleyball, poetry, swimming, burritos, mosquitos, dancing, gestures, the performative matrix, fantastico).

today i leave work early to go to the secretary of state to take the CDL test!

in case you haven't heard:
i'm quitting my current job to be an a2 public school bus driver!!! (arsenio hall: hoo hoo hoo)

i'm trying to settle in, to get down to some kind of business. it will take a few more days/weeks to feel at home again. i feel a lot of what "home" is lives inside, not inside, but not exclusively.

have you read the book, the man who fell in love with the moon by tom spanbauer? it's a really amazing book. the idea of the your home being inside of yourself, that's in that book too.

that's what i felt when i was travelling. how at home i could feel when crammed in my car on the side of the road somewhere in vermont!

i'm so excited for you about the bus-driving gig. better times on the way. i want to ride your bus one day. you'll have to let me know the route. or maybe that's not allowed. but i need a photo of you doing it, at least.

Could I pretend to be a high school freshman and get on your bus and watch you drive?

I'd even bring you an apple.

I guess it'll be a while before you know what route(s) you're getting, since you're taking the test today, huh? I'm chuckling and shaking my head just thinking about you behind a schoolbus driver's wheel. Will you stick your head out the window and curse at people who don't stop when you stop and your flashing red lights go off? Please??
