i've been cooking with fresh garlic lately, and my hands smell of garlic. this is a scent that does not come off. so be forewarned, all those who would cook with garlic. i rather like the smell, so it doesn't bother me.
i'm home in happy roswell, ga. everything seems very still here. i can't help but notice that reunions with friends from home get less and less inviting, less and less exciting. maybe this is just part of growing lives away from each other. i don't want to be an adult with no friends. i don't want to just exist in my own little nucleus, with a husband and a dog, or kids. i want to still move and breathe outside of myself.
i feel guilty for leaving on thursday. i wish i had more time to spend with my mom. saturday was one of the happiest days i've had in a long while, just hanging around at home, taking an extremely long shower and letting my hair dry outside in the sun. wearing shorts. things feel more fluid here, not rigid and frozen like at school; but that doesn't mean that i should stay here, forever. or want to be here, always. right? maybe i have to fight my way through the rigidity at school.
i'm excited about going to d.c. on thursday, though. eliot and i have plans to go in lots of museums: i want to go in the national gallery and the museum of natural history and the corcoran (sp?); he wants to go to the holocaust museum (he's never been) and the spy museum. i hope we have time for everything.
david, phillip, and i watched contact last night. i love that movie.
