I wanted to share a story that happened the other day, and which I felt symbolizes parts of what this year is about. After work yesterday and a
nice chat with Chris before he got on his train, I went to find somewhere sunny
so that I could write some stuff. Since I recently lost my water bottle, I
didn’t have any water. After sitting in the sun for a while, I eventually got
thirsty, but I didn’t have any money to buy water. The last remaining dollars I
needed to use on laundry, if I were to have clean underwear after this weekend.
