five iron frenzy - a flowery song

while i was at goodwill today, i was standing in line watching the people in front of me. the mother was massively overweight, the kids underfed. the little girl stank and all their hair was really greasy. and now that i've established that terrible mental representation of them, i liked them. the little boy (cole!) was tying his sister's shoe while the older brother begged his mom until he got money for a fake tattoo.
also, right as i was leaving someone shouted really scarily. turns out it was ryan. ryan!! yeah, man. goodwill is the place to be on a thursday night.
so i got some really nifty bowling shoes, yet another ymca/boys and girls club/organized child sports team shirt, and an ugly sweatshirt. there was a really cool skirt with all sorts of crazy teals and greens and whites that i wanted, but it turned out they were too big and partially shorts. so nevermind.
brent's home! i came home from work and went into the bathroom to wash my hand before i ate the pizza, and when i opened the door he was right there just like he always used to be. it made me incredibly happy to see him again, scaring the shit out of me. i tackled him 'n gave him a huge hug and we're going to have fun over his spring break.
