Drive day to Warrensberg, MO

Dateline: same

Off to dirtbag @ Brandon’s house. I parked in a hastings / movie theater parking lot right off rt 50. A young man pulled up in a jeep wagon wearing a patagonia fleece and said he saw my van & had to check it out. We conversed and I said something about needing a spot to sleep and he invited me over.

A conversation w/ theater manager and a woman college grad doing art work on Hastings window to comeĀ  when I get back.

Watching 3 cats: one a female, one a tom for sure and a third that its role is unknown. The she doesn’t want the tom: she laid down stiff & wouldn’t lift her tail out of the way.

Drove over to Brandon’s house & met housemate greg pushing his townie up onto the yard 7 I heard beer bottles rattling in his panier Enjoyed a lively evening of telling stories & laughing. 3 guys sharing a rental, either in grad school or back for 2nd degree. Early 20s. They enjoyed my company and thanked me for visiting & sharing. Giving them a vision of what might be and I looking at my past, each envious of each other’s position. Should we discuss my future or the consequences of my past?
