Yellow Moments

  • You are about to go on a journey and you realize a life of often traveling has stopped without you noticing it.
  • You’ve changed your hair so much you don’t recognize yourself in the bathroom mirror at 2AM on your way to pee.
  • You cannot lose or make peace with the 12 lbs that showed up like a fatty natty boo boo around you.
  • Your toddler behave likes a angel when you least expect it and like a warthog, doused with gasoline and lit on fire when you do.
  • Your reading has been condensed to one page a day and usually late at night so read twice.
  • You haven’t heard from the person you were supposed to hear from a lot.
  • Your entire family are strangers and strangers are your entire family.
  • You realize your last supporters are throwing you a safety line because there is no longer any room for you on the ship, and the rope is frayed and thin, and you yourself can barely get a grip.
  • The waiter has recited the specials and it is longer than the menu.
  • The person who comes out to say hi to Tin in the car is high and that is why she is acting weird.
  • You look across the restaurant and see a woman wearing her hair a certain way, her hair color is silver, like spun precious metal, cut in a pixie and striking. You ask yourself if you can dye your hair to look silver instead of the mish mash color it keeps wanting to be and you realize once again you are thinking of changing your hair.
  • Friends sometimes rub you the wrong way like when you said to one “I simply can’t do it” and she responded as if you were saying “I can’t not pee in my pants.” (read: the wrong way)
