Oh, Brother

Chase Walker said a little tornado swirled leaves around the playground and she got in the middle of it and danced.
I wrote another letter to Shirelle I don't know whether or not to send it. I suppose it really doesn't matter now either way. I have some ideas for another letter.
Fucking cunt. Why if God is good does he allow that kind of fucked up evil?
I spoke briefly with Katherine Beuerlein just now. She said thanks for the message. She was very warm about it. I stepped halfway out the door. "Do you want to go to lunch?" I guess I was surprised she was considering it. She told me she was in a long-term relationship.
The kids are working on some science. I'm falling asleep. I woke up around four AM with all the usual evil my head. I hate life still. Juan Zacarias came up to my desk. "Finished," he said. I looked at his paper. He had the answers but not the questions. I must have said five times to write the question and then a complete sentence answer. "You didn't write the questions," I said.
"Ah, nuts," he said and drooped his shoulders and went back to his desk.
I guess I'll take them outside to play a while. When I get home, I'll finish that traffic school stuff. I haven't done any fucking Christmas shopping, and I don't want to.
Life sucks; there's no way around it. There's no other way to look at it.
Alcides asked if we can play Prisoner. I said okay. Life sucks.
I'm sitting dejectedly now on a green bench on the playground. The sky is perfectly clear. A strong chilly breeze blows. I rolled up my sleeves to feel it and the sunshine on my skin. I wonder if I should invite Katherine to this party Saturday. The kids call my name and throw a ball over the net. If the other team doesn't catch it, the person called sits out.
