RAM

Running throught the sprinklers running water. Running constantly on a summer day in San Bernardino. Wearing bathing suits and towels and then blankets and sweatshirts as the air conditioning rose bumps on our skin. Playing video games on the Commodore 64. Plumping hot dogs in the microwave and making iced teas. Slugging around a bucket full of tadpoles until they boiled in the sun and my mother made us throw them out bacause they weren't swimming anymore. As the sun went down, we'd roll in to the garage where the heat of the day still sat around while we put on our disco flashlights and roller skates and rolled around and around.
