FAREWELL

FAREWELL   I left drylab Saturday. I was not the only one to say goodbye. No, Saf left before me. She headed east on foot. I assume conflict drove her mad. Inexplicably drawn to the group, forming relationships with each of us, simultaneously spying on us like we

MY LUCK IS RUNNING OUT   My luck may be running out. I caught Saf in my room the other day. She claimed she was fixing her hair but failed to mention why she wasn’t doing that in her own quarters. I have no doubt now that she

By |2017-05-30T01:24:58-07:00May 29th, 2017|

Reflections from Two Weeks Two weeks have passed at Drylab. The temperatures have reached 110F, but the mornings and evenings offer relief. Water use has increased as heat has increased. Average use is two gallons a day personal and seven gallons communal, which means we have built up

PURPOSE

By |2017-05-28T17:25:05-07:00May 28th, 2017|

PURPOSE The first week here was a bit like being the first person to wake up at a slumber party. You know, not really sure what to do with yourself until everyone else wakes up. I’m not used to waking up at 5:30 a.m.,
