So, another tally mark for me. No enthusiasm. Just an 'ugh' on my way out of bed. A receipt strewn on the ground. $1,415, payable to the University of Maine. Seven-hundred of that I had just earned a few days ago. A game of football with my brother. I'm not nearly as good as I used to be. I was Washington, he was Washington State. 70-42. A walk, in my new winter jacket. I was sweating halfway to my destination. A store that won't cash second-party OR third-party checks. And trying to think of just what checks they WOULD cash. A dinner, and a good time had by all. Until dessert. Damn siblings. A visit. Visited everyone there, except the person I went to visit. And now, a diary that I haven't looked at in forever. I suppose those are my twenty spankings...let the last one stick with me.
