Goodbye

My dog Sugar and I are leaving. I think I'm going to sail away in a canoe with Sugar at midnight.

We will sail far to a place where nobody knows us. Where we can sit in occasional non-awkward silence, and where politics doesn't exist. Where boys aren't stupid, and where girls aren't snobs. Where you're excited for your bedtime, and it's easy to wake up. Where 11 hours of sleep is required, and Wheatfields for dinner is mandatory at least once a week. Where floods of cookie dough ice cream rain here and there, and where there are attractive people with clean teeth smiling and biking along. Hmmm, where people make you laugh, and you only cry from laughing too hard. Where the name Hillary Clinton is banned, and where every morning you get a kiss on the forehead welcoming the day.

Ughh sugar and I are leaving.
I will write.
