I have done little but work since last Tuesday (after not really working since June), my days off have been full of errands. I will have maybe two days off a week for the next five weeks. I have been working 9, 10, or 11 hour days. It feels both nice and terrible. All I do is sit and snip. There are three kinds of snipping and the first two are almost done and then it will be weeks of one type of snipping. It is cold in the morning when I go inside. It is cold at night when I leave. I am told it is warm during the day. It smells good all day.
I need more music, the community's pirate radio station plays hours of the Grateful Dead and they just aren't my cup of tea. I want musicals. I want to make an Into the Woods hippie style production. I have been laughing my ass off (in my head) thinking about the bean stalk being pot.
I really love my life. I may not be hooping or reading much right now, but I will be soon. And I love the people I work with. I love the work I am doing. I am really digging the town I am in. I never thought I would find a small town this cool. As far as I know, there are only five stores and two restaurants in this town. But there are sometimes concerts at the Out of the Way Cafe. There are pancake breakfast once a month at a community hall. There is a free lunch every Tuesday at a church. There is an old mining claim anyone can go camping on or walk around or whatever. There is a public pond up the road (less than a half hour walk). I get to walk a cool trail and cross a stream by hopping on rocks to get to my friends' places. Everything here is beautiful.
I think every October I post about how awesome everything is. Last year was a tribute to TRF
I would really like to share this place with people, but I don't think I know anyone who can work this kind of work and work hard. Sucks to be you :P
