Finally, a break from the heat. I took a long walk today and it wasn't unbearably hot. It's the first day in weeks that I've been able to leave the house without instantly melting. There was a slight breeze and the sun actually felt great on my shoulders. I found a little market and bought a skirt, that I love, for $12. Can't beat that. I was pretty lazy today and can't say that I really accomplished much, but I think it's necessary at times to just be and have absolutely no agenda or obligations. Since I've been out of the habit of blogging on a regular basis I thought I'd take some time and expatiate on the mundane and ordinary details of my life.
After my walk I came home and made a delightful little lunch, mushroom tortellini in marinara, and watched a movie, Rory O'Shea Was Here. Now I want to travel to Ireland. I want to hear all the little old ladies say fuck as a common word in their daily vocabulary...it makes me chuckle.
I cleaned a little and made the apartment feel a bit cozier. I applied for yet another forbearance on my student loans and hope they'll give me six more months to get my shit together. I paid some bills and did some laundry. I guess my day was more eventful than I thought. In all my down time and in-between time, I just daydreamed and let my mind wander. I'm actually glad I'm able to still do this. So many people lose this ability or push it aside when they enter the realm of adulthood. I never want to lose it. So, I live in a dreamworld and I'm the eternal optimist. I just see my reality with more imagination.
Instead of imagination being treated as a pejorative
think about it...
We get told all the time to stop daydreaming!
We get told all the time it's only our imagination running wild!
It's one thing to be incapable of dealing with truth and another thing to have lost your ability to imagine!
