I ate a lot of turkey tonight, so this might be the tryptophan talking.

Times are a-changing. I still remember when Pastor's families would get discounts at locally owned restaurants and other places of business. It's so crazy because things like that would seem ludicrous now. It's not that this is something I wish for now, not at all, it's just a telling difference. I sometimes wish we could return to times that were simpler; return to being people that were simpler. I hate "knowing" so much you can't enjoy anything that life has to offer; even the most simple things we intellectualize. I feel like a blur that travels through time without ever acknowledging the moment, without ever taking the time to commit things to memory. I want to start writing things down again. I want to start being conscious and present in every moment. Life's too short to just let things go unremembered.
