Cap and Grown
May 14, 2010
Well, it has arrived. It is that milestone event that is supposed to signify the next step. Feels like a step off a cliff into a bed of fog and emptiness. That proverbial fork in the road, lacking signs of direction and asking for an exorbitant amount of faith. The trouble with this fork is that it has far too many tines for me to choose from. None of which have names, descriptions, or end destinations. None of which have ETA’s or HMO’s or even ATM’s.
So I guess, at least for this weekend, I will just enjoy the silly hat and the company of my parents as I walk down the hill, away from the University of Kansas and into a life I have successfully neglected for the extra few years it took me to finish. Come Monday, though, I will be searching Craigslist for a GPS for the soul and job listings for people with the 2010′s equivalent of a GED.
