• I met a girl named Katelyn last night, I got off work and her friend was waiting for me, there by the door. She said, "This is very twelve year oldish, but my friend is very attracted to you, and she wondered if she could get your number." I was like, "Of course, I actually came over here for the same reason." I said, "Let's go talk to her." So we went around the corner and there she stood, young looking, blond hair, blue eyes, wide pupils, come to think, I didn't really perceive her body, which is most likely a good sign. We sat on a couch that was just set out in the mall, and we three talked for a good amount of time. About family, school, life, love, relationships, histories... She was very cute. I liked to watch her talk. She is 18, about to graduate this year. She is the age of my brother. What will happen? I don't have a clue. All I know is I have her number now, and we'll most likely be texting on and off. We'll see. It is strange that it is nearly a year to the day from when I met Mariah... And we all know how that turned out, eh? Haha, whatever, it don't matta. We'll just see. :) How perfectly I remember, sitting on Mariah's couch, this past January, watching the super bowl... The Who played the halftime show. I remember feeling emotional, for some reason. I do recall that Mariah's mother was crying on the telephone, cannot remember with whom, but I felt the wave that she must also have felt, as the Who played perfect songs from my past. I remember I cried too, there on the couch with Mariah. She was holding me, we were very close; I remember I said, "sometimes, I wish I just WAS music. Because music doesn't have to deal with any of this, music just plays on, forever. Music is oblivious, music is perfect, music is separate from us. I wish I was music." Mariah said, "Don't cry, you are music." It went something like that... It was a crazy moment though. Something about all the elements of everything coming together perfectly. I also remember the Bud Light commercials, there new slogan was "Here we go." I remember finding this ominous. And here, as this year finally draws to a close, I can't help but thinking, "Here we go again." Life is a chute and a ladder, all at once. Sliding and climbing, falling and rising, all at once. Life is coming, and it is going, and this, I suppose, is the duality. Here and there, all and one, in and out, up and down, on and off, before and behind, always and never. All at once, All at once.
