"Now, we're going back to school"

It seems that what's important and who's important is changing on a daily basis. To everybody. I wouldn't mind getting a couple anchors. I might make a few anchors away puns to correlate to all the people I like going to colleges, but I'm not that guy and you're not that stupid. I don't want to give you a shot-for-shot of the day because that's boring, but it's safe to say that it'll be a better year. I suppose it's just a matter of keeping the right things in focus. Some things that seem more important than others are far less than we think they are. In hindsight, everytime I invest in a relationship it's like going all in on the first good looking hand I get in the round. Pocket Jacks might look killer but once the flop's out there it might be the worst hand at the table. I'm not a good poker player, I don't know if that has to do with the hands I'm dealt or the way I play them. It's easy to blame it on the cards. It rained hard today. I was thinking of what it would be like to be completely in it. Drenched within and without almost drowning in the downpour of natural water. No cell phones or wallets or pagers. Just completely ceasing to be bound to the world as the world is and freedom with a complete absence of leashes. A real person in the rain. I'm not trying to write bad poetry here. I just wouldn't mind experiencing that sometime. We've all run through rain to dry ground at some point but not everyone's really taken a second to kind of embrace that messiness. It doesn't look too bad to me.
