Refreshing is a State of Mind
After a long day of grueling "work" (four hours of cutting and pasting curriculum bullshit into pacing guides and syllabi-- so dumb) I took a nap, biked over to the pool, swam some laps, and then lay on a lounge chair-- refreshed-- and read my mystery novel . . . until a couple kids jumped into the water near me and a third kid (who did not jump in) said, "You just jumped in where the shit was!" and then the kids discussed how a girl pooped in the pool yesterday, in that very corner, and then I felt less refreshed, so I biked home and showered.

The ocean is full of shit and piss and procreative materials. How bad could a little chlorinated poop be?
and the night is full of terrors
not too bad-- i'll go back tomorrow-- it's more the thinking about it and the kids describing it while i was trying to read . . . just broke the spell . . .
