the importance of things

sorry it's been so long since a story. i've just been caught up in being unemployed, hungry, nervous, and drunk (which, you may have guessed, makes a person feel pretty awkward). so i've been doing a lot of sitting, reading, resumè polishing and i started thinking about how it's also awkward the ways in which we are connected to rituals or objects in our lives. so i'm posting a series of jottings on post-its that connect in some way, though i don't know what it is. here goes.
