this might be one of my worst finals season ever, but it definitely wins best study breaks...
daily trips to yougurt park, floating around the pool in the heat, lying on the grass watching a little blond boy spit water with his shirtless father as a pirate flag waved in the wind... a midnight cocktail party ("wear a cocktail dress!" he orders, then shows up in striped pants (?!))... fireworks from the roof, a trip to MOMA, an impromptu bbq...
as an almost-side-note... a decision was made and i'm incredibly happy with it. i forget that he tends to reassure later, in motion... i'm more deeply relaxed, more secure... this summer will be one of genuine joy, adventures, with the time and space to continue getting to know each other. we're at our best in the smaller moments... last week i woke to blearily demand pancakes and immediately fall back asleep. that afternoon i got a call telling me some strawberry ones were waiting... ignoring my psyche (is food really the first thing i think of when i wake??)the gesture was much appreciated. i'm envisioning a summer that feels more like that... genuine?
summer is here summer is here... so close... now for a little more study, shower, greys, and bed... damn 8am-ers...
