When Tomorrow Comes

Blog Blog Blerg

I live in Portland Oregon these days. I am nearly 26 years on this ball of dust. I am much more wise and all the more ignorant than when last I wrote. 

I am a little over two week single and am full of thoughts and feelings. I also write this full of cinnamon laden caffeine. 

The Pacific Northwest is a thing of beauty which everyone should see. To see a mountain peak off in the distance -whenever there aren't grey clouds hiding it- replaces my words with emotion. Arriving the first of June was spectacular. Spring was giving way to summer and everything was alive. Blackberries, strawberries, grapes, apples, pears all grew wild. Rosemary and lavender dot the yards of every plot in portland. It's was magical. 

Now comes the season that Boston prepared me for: WINTER. The skills I'll use won't be battling snow dunes to make the bus on time but rather wrestling with grey skies and depression. 

This is the perfect time to have your first self imposed break up right? Just before thanksgiving and christmas? Just when everyone is hunkering down with someone to hold? 

I am unsure of the future. I am questioning everything and still I am suspicious of my commitment to finding actual answers. 

I live in Portland Oregon these days, and it's just as much here as anywhere else is.
