*sigh* I am having a serious case of the winter "blah"s right now. Of course, I hate saying it that way because it is not the fault of winter that I am feeling down. I can't even entirely blame it on a Seasonal Affective Disorder type-thing.
Really I'm just going through forest withdrawal.
When it is cold and gray and rainy outside it makes it very difficult for me to get outdoors. Yes I know the joke, it is Seattle, when doesn't it rain? But really there are so many different categories of Pacific Northwest wetness. Seattle's winter rain is different than fall rain or spring rain. Winter rain just kinda saps the energy and heat out of you.
I am going to try to make a point of getting outside this coming week. Just to breathe some clean woodsy air, hug some trees and dig my hands into the leaf-litter and loam. It won't fix everything but it'll probably help.
seattle,
