To the Stars…

Qamaria pistachio latte while searching for Kansas-Duke exhibition game tickets. Listening to the Arabic version of The Weeknd’s Blinding Lights. Realizing that there are actual decent human beings in Texas. McKinney Former Mayor George Fuller, Evan Hunt, US Congressional Candidate, 20 Year Airforce Veteran and Collin County Democratic Party Chair, Jeremy Sutka. Thank you. Oh, and Dearborn. Oh, Dearborn. You guys have skills. Never really imagined wanting to see Spiderman dabke against racists but there ya go. What strange times we are living in. Proud to be an American…but who sees me as an American? Fine, see me as Kansan, ;) Ad Astra Per Aspera.

I am now listening to Orinoco Flow by Enya and cracking up thinking about Zakaria being very confused as to why I listened to this at his age. 15 year old Saira. Man, what would I say to her now? Maybe a conversation about how August 22, 2019 will be the day your husband walks out on you? Possibly that even though he told you he was leaving you at Cold Spoon, you will continue to frequent the joint and realize how far you have come? How that moment of hearing how unhappy he was (who knew?) will never take away the smile Hadi gave while enjoying gelato. Oh, maybe I should go get some gelato. Wait, can a Muslim eat gelato? Is that sharia compliant? ;)
