you KNOW we had a booth 
at the ren fair 
& it shaped
me, that place

I don't THINK about it that way
BUT 
it's true nonetheless 

I haven't told you 
when I went to duchene
I told you about 
FEELING 
VERY ALIENATED and out of place

I told you a bunch of little things 
I THINK 
and my mind has been wandering there
pretty regularly recently 

I didn't really notice, at first 
BUT 
then I was LIKE 
why is everything reminding me of duchene 

BUT 
of course EVERYTHING wasn't 
I was ALSO 
in the good apartment 
I started a thing I didn't post
SIX years old
RUBBER SOUL

BUT 
duchene 
we had all these ENRICHMENT things
I f*CKing LOVED
& one of them
was about business in SOME WAY

AND
the woman asked me what I was going to do
& I said
I'm going to get a business degree
& a history degree
AND
OPEN a RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL 

AND
she came over later
& said
something about seeing me with my long red hair

there was SOMETHING else
I can't REMEMBER it
BUT 
it got coded as being 
KINDA touched or inspired or moved
IDK -- LIKE 
I've been watching you sitting there 
& you kind of remind me of
some Renaissance lady
& I have no doubt
that you will
accomplish your dream

it was SOMETHING like that
you'd think I'd remember 
BUT 
I don't THINK 
that WAS my DREAM 

I think that was my "business" answer

I kinda forgot the whole interaction
