Ten.Two Thousand, Two Hundred & Eighteen

  1. +4

  2. Really need to get this car washed.

  3. The last bit of protein powder for the smoothies.

  4. Glistening gossamer between the leaves of the manzanitas. I think of the book I used to read in the alcove of the house in Oswego—The Keeper of the Bees—and how I would daydream about the jacarandas.

  5. Progress but not perfection.

  6. I check the app to see where the fire is and then write down the name of our evacuation zone so that I can commit it to memory. It feels like I’m going to need to know this.

  7. Not sure I feel any better. Maybe less confused. Maybe more confused.

  8. “The two of you set things on fire.”

  9. A little bit of baseball on a hot summer night.

  10. “Who was that guy that got kicked out of the game?” “Your eye doctor.”
