Sometimes

Sometimes...you turn 20 and are in a new decade. Sometimes this makes you feel like a real adult, with an adult life.

Sometimes you go for runs with grocery bags on your back but realize there is no ventilation and have a sweat imprint when you are done.

Or sometimes great big black dogs break out of their homemade cages on the porch and tackle you until their Asian owners run out of the house and wrangle them into the garage. Then you awkwardly apologize for knocking on their door... which stimulated the enormous hound. 

Sometimes children prank Sister Clark by putting earth worms all over her doorknob. And you try to teach them a lesson about being kind. But end up just laughing and going away.

Sometimes you get tired of helping people. But you know you shouldn't.

Sometimes your best friend is in love.

Sometimes thinking about your Dad makes you cry a bit because you love him.

And sometimes your pudding explodes on your clothes in the library. Or you accidentally laugh too hard at a LoR comment made in sacrament meeting. Or read the key signature wrong on the hymn and tell everyone in the congregation to give you a minute to compose yourself.

But sometimes....on a rare occasion...you have a crinkle.

That turns into a crush.

And you FINALLY,

sorta-kinda,

like somebody.

Could that date come any faster?
