outdoors
Today was spent mostly outside for a change! I took the bus downtown to see the doctor about something, and then went exploring around the old quebec street mall... It's this done up mall full of fancy yuppie furniture stores and clothing boutiques. They had this little chinese restaurant called the jade unicorn, which was neat. I had their curry with shrimp and chicken and veggies. Twas pretty good. I started reading Othello over lunch. Then I headed over to this park to meet up with some ppv people (aka work friends) to play some beach volleyball. I was walking in the forest, and it was just really beautiful and serene. A little brook trickled, just beyond the trees, and on my left was the remains of an old majestic looking mill. Guelph has so much history... all these old buildings with such a colourful history. One of the girls at volleyball had brought their baby along. In a way, it was a little weird to see it, just because so many people just aren't at that stage of life yet, but at the same time, it seemed so natural and happy. Soon after I got home, I went for a walk with my roommate adrienne, a walk that turned into a 2 and a half hour adventure. It was really neat seeing so much of guelph that I hadn't seen before. Just walking along the speed river, and noticing all the canadian geese and the suddenly prolific abundance of beach volleyball courts. Being outside makes me miss Katie... It seems that everywhere, there are things that make me think of Katie, whether it's a little secluded grassy knoll where this couple were sitting, obviously kissing before we rounded the corner to disturb their moment. All the ducks and geese were also paired up and just swimming around nibbling on algae. I see all the things that I would have loved to share with her, and all the places we could have gone to sit and watch the world go by... I think that's why i've been reluctant to go outside, because missing her is hard.. I'm trying to imagine the next 5 months, in which i'll see her about a week, maybe two... and really, I'm not trying to imagine it too much. But really, I just need to stop being a wuss and just get out.. I think it does do me good. I keep saying that life is made of happy and sad times, and that's the reality of it, but right now, I'm just ignoring the sad part of the equation, so I need to work on that. But wow, being outside all day has made me really pooped. Gonna get some early sleep tonight, I think. Work beckons tommorow, after my 3 day weekend. I'm going to start storing my photos on yahoo! photos, here. Mostly like events, parties and what not. So as I get time, and the summer rolls on, I'll be posting my pics here! Anyways, off to bed. Toodles! | feeling: tired | | listening: Finley Quaye - Dice | Today's Fotolog: Red Vs. Blue And oh, yesterday's fotolog didn't work... so here it is... Yesterday's Fotolog: Land of Dandelions
