Should have kept those dang notes for this.

Driving to pick my little brother up from work today, I remembered how summer the act of driving is. One hand on the wheel, an arm resting on the open window and my hair being whipped in the wind.
In the city I sometimes miss driving. Transit has its advantages and I certainly will not own a car there any time soon... and maybe its a small town mentality, but the "rugged" freedom being on the road, going where you please is refreshing and uplifting. C will make fun of me for saying that.

I've left the city for the summer, in fact. For a sleepy town with sleepy folks. It will most likely be the last time I will really be living here and I'm trying to take it in for good. But it's hard. There's always something to do and even when there isn't, I know there is.

I hope to have extra TLC to afford this wee blog as well! Get ready for a lotta ramblin'...

Oh, you should take a peek at my tumblr! It needs some attention too, but I'm working on it! Happy tumbling.

Have you ever seen that tiny house on the top of that apartment building?

OH
MY
WORD.

I might have had something to say earlier, but these socks have hijacked my intelligent (har har) thought and all I can think about is: ooooh... prettyyyy...

Things that are new with me:

• finished classes for the summer (as of Wednesday)
• new glasses (as of January, though...)
• new haircut (as of Friday)
• went to Mexico for a week (in February)
• planted a tiny herb & lettuce garden on the windowsill 

Sad, considering this will be the 2nd time I've updated the blog in 2011!

In a land of violently calming dreams

It's pretty cold out today. I could have swore I saw the most tiny snowflakes floating around while I was sitting on the bus.

There's something romantic and dreamy about frosty, less-than-half-full late-morning bus rides. After the morning rush, quiet, introverted.
