Seriously, I can't wear these in public because people think I'm wielding Shang-Chi's ten rings, or someone believes me to be a part of the Eternals. You might have better luck tho...

Back in the early 90s Nintendo released several Choose Your Own Adventure books featuring characters from Super Mario Bros.
I remember owning a few. I want to say the local supermarket had a promo where the books were a buck ninety with the purchase of a can of Pringle’s chips. Or maybe I was eating Pringles chips while reading these books. It’s been a while.
Unlocked a memory from my school years, i remembered i used to love collecting erasers. I wouldnt use them, id keep them in a box, but i had SO many cute ones!
My daughter got some pokemon erasers for her birthday this year and gave me bulbasaur and snorlax, i wont ever use them, but i love the feel of them and theyre adorable to look at. This is not really a fixation i should get back into 😅 but maybe i wont be able to help myself
The power of music is so amazing. I was reading a fic that had notes about how Bruce Springsteen fits supernatural so well. I’ve never been a big Springsteen fan always seemed more like “middle age person music”
So I had popped on born to run while doing the dishes. It’s pretty good. I knew a few songs. It’s got me feeling good enough that I’m cleaning more. Pop on the river. Life is good I’m making some progress on the disaster that is my apartment. Cleaning stuff out.
Go to run a couple errands finish up the river while I’m out
Come home ready to tackle more with Bruce. Ok let’s go for born in the USA. THE Springsteen album
Yeah everyone alive in the 80s knows born in the USA hmm well I guess I know the lyrics to cover me. Oh and Darlington county.
Man I can almost feel summer. Smell dusty fields. Feel grass and weeds
Working on the highway …oh yeah know this too. Makes me want to dance. I can almost smell the grill and feel that summer mud that you get around the plastic kiddie pool
Downbound train finds me sitting on floor crying absolutely overwhelmed with memories. Had to be summer 84. God that old apartment, sticky from fluffanutters, roller skates, big wheels in the driveway way; hide and seek in the weed filled empty lot next door, cook outs at the neighbors out back, digging potatoes with my great uncle, running up and down the wooden stairs in the poorly lit hallway up to the second floor. So much happy and within the year it was just gone
Gone like the America of the boomers featured in the song. Even that seemingly bleak future the adults were feeling back in 84 looks unachievable now
Happy and sad all at once listening to an album I doubt I’ve heard in its entirety since that summer and music just seeps into your bones that 44 year old me knows lyrics from 4 year old mes memories.
