im my egotistical imagination i like to think that since i havent posted  or called anyone    most people are wondering and worried about me,    figuring i have fallen off the face of the earth   and such.      its pretty true  in a sense,   i mean  i   suck  at  staying in contact   with people,  and st paul is a world away  from the action many of you are out facing.    not only that   but i been painting  and reading and watching the entire first season of 6 feet under     and  hbo  show  my family likes.     i been reorganizing my messy room,  trying to make things fit,   checking out  old stories poems and art   and placing some of it on my walls.     
trying very hard  to not get a job all the while   claiming im looking.     or so it seems, meaning i am looking  but very slowly.  like today  i checked a coffee shop,  and got an aplication at shinders,   but i now realize  i pretty much  only have 2.5 months  and not 4.    that is  if  i want a weekor two off  and  now  even my irresponible friends  are  getting on track,  the same people  i was frustrated  with  for doing nothing now  have 1-3 jobs  more than me.  and   i have been networking, talking to my dad   his school system   all  over,  summer programs working with kids  all fill up  well before the summer.  and i thought i got out of school early.   Tim and kristen seem to be having a blast in europe and i havent heard from gabs  but she gets back soon anyway.   and now were planning for the fourth  maybe camping?   and i mistakenly  told  aimee that gabs wouldnt be back  but she will be
so   im   a  bum  and   i was thinkingis that ok?    i mean   i always  said that was fine with me.   one of the poems  i recently reread   had the lines "speaking of power how much comes in the dollar? if my time aint worth cash  who's chain is attached to my collar?"  and i was thinking today   none of us really want freedom,   we all attach that chain ourselves  and determine the length we are willing to live with.   The only ones with freedom are the homeless and we generally shun them, and treat them like we cant stand them  rather than stand in line to fill their shoes.
