I know they aren't good. The chocolate on them is horrible. But I think I like them for the same reason that I adore Cadbury cream eggs - the mushy innards that squish out. I recently had a Cherry Blossom moment in coursework that makes me unhappy. I've been taking classes and recent events in my life led to me not having all the time I'd like to complete my work. So I did a half arsed job in an assignment hoping to at least not do so horribly I couldn't recover. I did better on that assignment grading wise than I did on my other homework. I'm beginning to realize that half-arsed is better for this professor and it bothers me to my soul. I actually like those things for some reason. I know they aren’t good.

I remember working on a prawn trawler in Australia (I was 19—forgive me my crimes against sealife) and worked alone with the skipper. Don, was his name. Crusty, cantankerous and Camel-cigarette fueled Don. He smelled vaguely of salt and herring. And while I was enjoying, for the most part, my time in the crystal blue waters off the far northeast coast of Queensland, watching dolphins, reef sharks, rays and sea turtles, Crusty Don sidled up to me and said, "You know, I find that if I sleep with the crew, it just makes it much easier to get along. There's a sense of camaraderie." Cherry Blossom Moment. I can't remember exactly what I said, but in my mind it was very close to, "Well, Don, you best learn how to make friends with acrimony." Deagh Dia, I loved your stories. When I reflect, I realize my life has been full of Cherry Blossom moments.

I was walking in town that Saturday, and down the sidewalk I could see him and his mother walking toward me. When he saw me, he crossed the street. That was pretty much it. Crossed the damn street to avoid introducing me to his mother. Jerkwad. In college, I had recently started seeing some guy, when Mother’s Weekend arrived on campus.
