Happy summer everyone. Due to the weirdness of archaic calendars, Midsummer Eve actually falls 2 days from now, which means the fairies and the weird coincidences and the sexual abandon and maypoles, but until then I'm going to enjoy these achingly long days--even if I've never lived under the Midnight Sun, as I dream of doing one season, one day.
Crappy day at work, but I managed to pass out and then have a bike ride in the barely-marked bike path nearby that I just discovered. The light was perfect late dusk, and it's just nestled between some unused tracks and the wall of a subdivision, covered in ivy. Not to mention the collection of old people walking back from shopping, transient biker types, and some dude ready to make camp--it's real, you know?
I'm in transition these days. Trying to find a new place to live where I can afford it (IF i can afford it), trying to move on from learning the ropes of my job to just DOING my job, and then doing my job well. And finally deciding I need to go meet people in this place, not just live like an interloper. And trying to think about the consequences all that has on the other pieces of my life.
But till that works out I'm going to pass out reading Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, which is blowing my mind. And I have a little plan to greet the new day for real instead of hiding under my blanket, but we'll see how that goes.
