"Don't ever prophesy; for if you prophesy wrong, nobody will forget it; and if you prophesy right, nobody will remember it."
-Josh Billings

Grandpa Mac is in the hospital again. Prayers please.

You are the best thing...that's ever happened to me...

And when I sing that magnificent song by Ray Lamontagne, I sing it to my oatmeal and coffee. Thank you foods, for starting my morning particularly wonderful.

I get to meet the family I'm going to babysit for tonight. Monday and Friday mornings, 6:15AM-8:30AM. Twelve-year-old twin boys. There will be stories, and I will post them.

We started rehearsals for Steel Magnolias, and I had forgotten how much I love being on a stage, owning a script, being directed. It's probably a lame drama-kid thing to say, but it feels like home. It's nice to be back.

As busy as I know this semester will be, I can't help but feel incredibly calm about all of it. Trust me, I did my share of spazzing before I got back on campus...but now that I'm settled again, I just feel an immense peace.

Things are good. I'm set. No worries.

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?

-Skinny Love by Bon Iver

A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.
-Henry David Thoreau


Can't think much farther than that today.
