finger pickt

i sort of wrote a song tonight. just a little fingerpicked thing based on some of the chords from tom petty's 'square one'. i brought home postcards in case i want to write more although i'm not sure who they would go to.

it was really difficult to leave school today. this entire week has been so relaxed for me... what with three finals. i just don't care anymore. but it was rough, today. packing up the room, some of it anyway. i don't know, maybe that part wasn't so bad.

saying goodbye is tough. i choked up.

when i was driving towards university i got a real strong notion that i wanted to stay. i didn't really want to leave that place right yet.

but i went and drove home and the two albums i chose, back to back, full-length, brought me almost right to my doorstep. and i sang almost every single word. it was hard. about halfway down 421 south i just about broke down and cried. i mean i did cry, a little. maybe just because i was singing 'crush' as loud as i could. that could do it all by itself. but there's a lot of emotion today, everywhere.

but now i'm looking forward to a month of... not much. what i'm really looking forward is going to bed and nosing into a new novel. suite francais. should be a gem.

love you always
