cancel, campaign, commute

I'm in the computer commons at the college killing some time before my next tutoring appointment. I got to campus just in time to receive a text from my earlier tutee...

"I'm really sorry to do this so last minute..."

Okay, fine. She had to late cancel - health issues. So here I was in vagabond mode. I was in the student center for a while, having a snack. A guy walked up to me,

"Excuse me, are you a student?", he asked.

Heck no, what?? was what I was thinking, but to be fair, there are a few from my generation who decide to take college classes, for whatever reason.

So I said, "Uh, no. Sorry"

He approached the girl sitting not far from me. He's running for student government, getting signatures. I have no idea what the student government does here. As for me, I reached into my bag and put on my nametag so as to not look so student-y.

In other news, the Pelicans are here. They come every spring to, apparently, breed. Why Colorado, I have no idea.


I'm sure there are pelicans breeding in other places, too, but I always see a flotilla of them on my commutes home this time of year. 

And with that, so endeth todays loitering.
