☆ Too tired to do a full Reading Wednesday entry, but anyway - Runaway Dreams by Richard Wagamese is an amazing poetry collection. I'm about halfway through it, and it's really blown me away. He has an incredible way with words. His prose fiction was enough to make me interested in his other work, but this - wow. I'm in love. Hell, I might buy this book later. (Or just keep checking it out of the library again and again....)
☆ Pokewalk around the neighbourhood tonight confirmed a few things that I was unsure about. Namely: That the previously-unexplored areas close to my house are also dead zones, and that there is another pokestop close-ish to the neighbourhood, but it's... in the wilderness trails. Which are, of course, not safe to explore alone after dark, and - after the Bear Warning sign I came across a while back, I don't think I'll be exploring any woods until it's firmly winter. :P
☆ It's... getting to be THAT TIME again, and by "that time", I mean dark for way too many months. I keep telling myself that I should buy a SAD lamp or something. Really, I should just... do it. I guess the only thing keeping me from it is that they're a little expensive, and making room on my desk will be a pain, but - I should just do it. After all, there is a huge chunk of winter where I do not get any sunlight at all during the week; not because I'm that far north (not quite!) but because the sun doesn't rise until after I get to work, and it sets before I leave. So, I'll do my research this weekend, I guess. (Note to self: actually do it, rather than saying I will and then forgetting... again.) #northernproblems
