woke up braking

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2016.10.26

I woke myself up reaching for my bike brakes, this morning. I no longer recall the dream, but after weeks of worsening weather, worsening light, and worsening driving, it's no surprise that my dreams follow my mornings and evenings: constant emergency braking.

I like my buddies from west Texas. I liked them when I was young, I liked them when I was middle-age, I liked them before I was president, and I like them during president, and I like them after president.

—George W. Bush
