Needs and wants


It's spring! The real beginning of the new year. I've been anticipating this day by eating flowers. The first front yard dandelion (of many to come—sorry, neighbors) peeped its yellow eye at me and I picked it and popped it into my mouth. It tasted like sunshine. The first violet appeared and I ate that too—delicious. I love spring so I could eat it up. I'm hungry for it it. Gimme. It's time to wake up, be reborn. I want to internalize this fresh gorgeous light and pop out all over with flowers and happy weeds.

It's been a while since I checked in with the Google Oracle and asked the great and powerful internet to explain me to myself. Here's what it revealed today:

  • Georgia needs nuclear power.
  • Georgia needs more virtual schools.
  • Georgia needs migrant labor.
  • Georgia needs a win here.
  • Georgia needs more friends and fewer fans.
