something about this just makes me feel old.
today is a beautiful day, an exaggeratedly beautiful day after so many days of rain and an "epochal flood event."
i think after a week or two i'll settle in much more here and the days will stop seeming so long, each one a tiny miracle of sorts. then days will just be days. later, days will become more like an obstacle to be overcome before coveted next year. grass=greener? much more so.
alone at the moment. the house seems much more pleasant when the family isn't here. i can open things up and put some music on. i'm trying to get them to take some vacations, specifically camping vacations, something they enjoy but i certainly do not. hence, house to myself for extended periods of time.
i got my car back, they couldn't seem to find anything wrong with it. my dad was driving when it started behaving strangely, so i'm not even sure exactly what he thought was wrong. i'm a little afraid to drive it, but i may go out later. i don't know where i'll go. i never know where to go when i'm here-- that's part of the problem.
i still need to get the new world on dvd. can't wait for the extended version, but i need another fix of the theatrical version now that it's available. i'll end up getting both, i know it. that's probably what i'll do, i'll go out and buy that. they want $20 for it nearly everywhere, though. not even the extended edition: seems like it should be less.

about
-
me: aspiring writer, 'music nerd,' seeker of beautiful moments, college student, armchair theologian, nominal quaker, 'the diet coke of emo with no caffeine,' eclectic left-winger, and generally someone who thinks about things too much.
this: unedited, uninhibited, and uninteresting thoughts, nebulous stream-of-consciousness ramblings of memory, inside jokes, obscure references, emotional paroxysms, and slices of life. sometimes there are pictures.
