31

Though he's the youngest

He's taller, calls me kiddo

Seems at least my age

30

Happy Equation:

family plus shuffleboard

plus beer plus old friends.

29

Seven years have passed

We're both exactly the same

Age hasn't changed us

28

We talk about jobs,

politics, oil spill, Utah.

Then we get off plane.

27

Korean Spa trip:

reward muscles for their work;

say sorry to skin.

26

I'm proud of my dad.

And proud to be his daughter.

Want to make him proud.

25

Tengo ganas de

comer una hamburger.

It'll happen hoy.

24

Can't keep track of hours

Something happened, I think, right?

Maybe nothing did.

23

Sunday raising funds

I poured beer for hours and hours

All for Bike Kitchen

22

Mid-day barbecue

Make some temporary friends

Say "see you next time"

21

Need warning label:

She lacks patience when hungry.

Deep breath. Test bike race.

20

Retrace steps on run.

Lost my phone on bike ride home?

No signs of it though.

19

Sometimes you just need

High alcohol content beers

With a new girlfriend

18

wolfpack hangover

no booze, just late night biking

hazy and busy

17

Another dead day

But at night, Wolfpack Hustle

Make my legs move fast

16

I woke up to read

this line: "Everything worth

knowing leaves bruises."

15

Mental Health Rx:

Rearrange Furniture With

Simpler Times Soul Dance

14

Or, to revise it:

The most I manage some days

Is eat, sleep, eat, sleep.

13

Start: Redondo Beach.

Bike: Venice. Bike: Home, Downtown.

Bike: Florence. End: Home.

12

Fill day with fake tasks

I know that I was moving

But nothing to show

11

Late night neighborhoods:

quickly typecast, fit in molds,

lose their uniqueness.

10

Almost killed someone

Later, almost killed myself

Weird feeling to shake

9

Losing hours, and days

To reading others' stories

Producing nothing

8

Joining a time bank

'Cause money's overrated

When you're running out.

7

Waiting for neighbors

To complain about the loud

Sad country music

6

Applied for one job.

Seven hundred more to go?

Or something like that.

5

Neil Young followed by

Ghostface Killah is standard

look-for-job music.

4

Long talks with two friends

Live in DC, Korea

Still feeling empty

3

Confirm with mailman

Yes, I live here alone now

Which really sucks balls

2

San Diego's fun:

rugby, tequila, great beer.

But I prefer home.

1

Before heading south

I glue my shoe together

Life analogy?
