keller is sweller

the weekend:
thursday -- an interview for a job. i'm excited about the job. then amit arrived, on a plane filled with texan rugby players destined for the um campus. very drunk and somewhat entertaining. they did not get amit drunk. he arrived sober.
we ate.
todd and i gardened while amit took a nap.
anne arrived in time for dinner preparations. pizza and salad and wine. conor came over. we chanted 'om' while being a plant. we laughed.
friday -- a slow, sunshine-y morning. a walk to campus, a fruitless search for our will-call tickets. new sunglasses for brooke, new flipflops for todd. fast fries at the old post before we parted ways. anne and amit: coffee and wandering. brooke and todd: scholarship banquet. yay todd. proud we were, but still we snuck out early to meet our friends for the keller williams concert.
dancing. dancing. dancing. good vibes, good energy, good exercise. leftovers late at night.
saturday -- awoke to another blue, blue sky. gathered essential foodstuffs for a hike, including chocolate eclairs. wandered deep into the bitterroot mountains, where we spotted a raging waterfall that only exists a month out of the year. bushwhacked uphill steeply to bask in the misty blowings. ate lunch, checked for ticks (four!), examined bleached bones, looked out over the steep ravine. tried not to slip. it was slippery.
the hike out. the enchiladas and fajitas and bean dip on the drive home. sunset after nine. late night of monopoly, cards, general merriment. dreams and dreams.
yesterday -- jill's poetry reading. lovely, visceral, thoughtful. an afternoon nap in the sun. dinner with friends, late into the night, long conversations. more dreams, another life under the surface.
