this morning #2205.
this morning, it was insane. none of us could remember what his address was. not even me. on a whim, we’d decided to surprise him. made it this far without an address or a phone number. i’d been to his place twice before. years ago though. smallish town. i knew the approximate area so i just said “screw it.” got off the highway at what i thought was his exit. drove in what i was pretty sure was the correct direction. my two passengers were skeptical. kept expressing as much as we wove down winding rural roads. i suggested that, if they had an actual practical opinion as to which way we should go, they should speak up. if not, they should shut up. we’ll find his place one way or another. no need to inflate the stakes of the situation. their disbelief was only stressing us all out.
