Notes from Arlington, Texas # 69

* * *

I'm going to take a nap, and see where that goes. There was an email from college that was dated 06/20, and it's fucking 07/12. I responded to the email and took care of the things they told me to, but, I don't think that I have to worry too much since the fall semester doesn't start for another 5 weeks I think.

one thing that I didn't know, until going on this road trip, was that chip cards can actually be held by the card chip reader.

"The Young Woman who is the Post Office"

The rural carrier associate is a 

young woman with a lisp that lingers

long enough to wreck your week, and

fiery jade eyes that burn in your

mind every subsequent week.

I try to buy stamps, twenty is too much for

one stamp, and she can't break bills, and

I can't have them all, I ask to trade stamps,

one for one, she's not sure that's okay,

so she phones a friend. she asks

if I have exact change and I say:

yes! I do.
