things on the mountain are quiet. there's a fair in town and lots of people headed down to check it out. working this weekend so i'm up here with the trees and the few folks still around. it feels good to be here in the quiet.
friday night was a dusty ride down the mountain to j's house-sitting house...huge glass windows, beautiful views and silly dogs. j, b, and i laughing till 1am watching movies and stand-up. waking in the morning to cuddle in bed together, laughing, with intermittent puppy dog kisses. j makes the biggest omlete ever for breakfast as i rush back to campus for bodywork...such a good morning. then a long walk around the loop with c after work, sweating and talking and enjoying the trees. topped off with a quiet night to myself watching a howard zinn documentary and painting.
the documentary makes me want to be off the mountain...to be more involved. but i know i'm here for a reason and that i just need to be patient with it. its hard not to be moved to take action and be involved.
hitting the snooze for an hour this morning i finally get out of bed for a run. getting ready afterward p calls...a lonely voice across the phone lines. i miss having her in my life and she's lonely too. its hard having friends so far away...i could move my world up here.
