hot and cold

I am restless today. I have thoughts swirling in my head about the debilitating effects of snark, the state of the world, of how much I miss the rain.

I move through without noticing the movement. It's murky and somehow I feel tired. This vague-ary of a post only serves to prove that point.

But tonight I am stepping out a bit, gathering a few neighbors together for the first time for cold beers and remnants of the hot sun. I don't know what I am hoping for but amidst the stilted getting to know you conversations I hope the possibility of more emerges, a shadow trickle shallow pool of what we've managed to build around here.

Because I need this in real life too.
