It makes me so happy to see 'alternative' kids in Waxahachie, Texas. It's a super conservative Christian town, and oh so small. The high school is right across from the cafe where BF and I charge the computer, so when it lets out the kids come pouring in to do their homework and wait for their parents.
Just now, 4 boys walked in - eyeliner, hair dyed black/blue/pink, tight ripped up black pants, combat boots, etc. My eyes turned to hearts! Even though ANYWHERE ELSE I'd be super judgy to those kids, it makes me glad to see kids kind of rebelling against the norm in a town like this. They probably get made fun of a lot and people probably are worried that they're going to shoot up the school. But I love them. Like all kids who went super punk alternative indie emo whatever in high school, they'll probably mellow out once they get OUT of here. I hope they do. I also really hope they're faux satanists and not just alternative looking while still being super christian, although that might be too much to hope for here.
Also, hello! I'm back! I didn't realize it'd been a year since I wrote in this. I'm still on the road, still with my BF, and still in the same place I was when I last wrote! But a year has passed. I have a new tattoo. As of a week ago, I haven't been eating any processed foods or fast food or like, bread or potatoes or any starchy thing. It hasn't been very hard but it's only been a week so WE'LL SEE. We got a cooler so we've been able to eat a million times better than previously, when we basically ate out every day. Avocados are my friends.
I don't know!? I thought I had a lot to say but I guess I don't!??! I'm scared. Anyway, so long.
