i could say it but you won't believe me

It seems that the proper mid-May attire will always be those light layers. We're approaching tank time, but until then it's nice to be able to wrap a kimono around your shoulders for the imminent breeze. The first of baby fireflies will emerge before you know it, and they'll dance in the humid skies until they are captured by mason jar. Aligning together in jars like constellations in the sky makes their relationships seem so simple and so free. Maybe we should take a cue from the little lightning bugs- or do you prefer when things are complicated?

There are musts, and there are desires. Things we must do: laundry, study for finals, check your privilege, etc. Things we desire to do: "I really want to try that new coffee shop on 10th" or "We should definitely go to Coney Island this semester" or "Maybe some of us will go to a poetry slam downtown and try to pick up some artsy boys." Alas, the musts get done. But when do we push beyond the brainstorming and getting to the actual doing? Well now I can check "Shoot in Central Park" off my list of desires and hopefully be more productive in list-doings over the summer months.
