Always the Same

Always the same

“Please just tell me what you need when you need it”

You can do all the California stuff.

What’s the California stuff?

“You can cut up all the vegetables”

Two adults attempt to explain the algorithm to one another and neither know what they are talking about.

Something about AI overlords and the like.

Someone likes this and then something shows up a week after the fact.

Something beyond our understanding.

It’s those dang comments

Nadine will comment on something from two years ago.

Tom will do the same thing.

The Guadalupe river is flooding

Flash floods

12” in 12 hours

The out of towners talk about Texas like they know the place.

The brazos still runs muddy like she’s run all along

And the Guadalupe still floods like she will before dawn.

Look an oriel under the trampoline

“You mean I was right all along”

I said something earlier

I’ll just shut up

What’s in the nest

Tiny teal eggs

We’ve gone from Facebook to birding pretty quick and all the while the children run unattended throughout the house.

A chirp a whistle

The wildlife are laughing at us too

No one knows what they are talking about

But we all just sit and interject.

A fan swirls swiveling on its base

The laughter from inside lets me know the Little’s are enjoying their vacation.

You’re not wearing a suit?

No if I need to jump in the lake I will

- the lake on 4th of July

They say don’t get old

Something about plantar fasciitis

Another talks about spots creeping into vision

We have an issue where it takes a long time to focus

They are talking about eyes but I’ve got a similar issue when it comes to focus and eyes have nothing to do with it.

Something about a tropical depression

That’s must be where the rain in Austin’s from

It’s supposed to be hotter tomorrow

These cool abnormalities are just short lived events

You know what the neighborhood comes with.

A cigarette lights up

Cause we need a lighter for the grill

Corn. Burgers. All the Americana shit.

Basketballs dribble next door

The silence is nice sometimes

Whippoorwills sing the same song they always have
