another sunny day.

sitting outside on the deck and looking over the world. alright, rather massive exaggeration, unless the world consists of a small stretch of dupont street. but for the moment, this is my world. the run-down bars, parked cars, and rising stars of yuppie bakeries and organic eateries.

and the deck, in all its glory. this is why we moved here. for the large expanse of outside glory, for the promise of parties that came and went in booze-drenched splendour. for the possibility of days like this.

and now, it is giving me some solace amids the sounds of traffic and passing conversations. it makes me happy i bought the headphones without the noise-cancellation - because i still hear snippets of life through the music.

and perhaps that's something to keep in mind when i am obsessing with what's in my mind. that there is life going on everywhere outside of my own little problems, worries and neurotics.

and having my kind of quiet but not fully quiet-time is vital. time to think, time to have a solitary (guinness) drink, and time to realize that i might just be on the brink of something big. what, i am not sure. whatever it is, it will be drenched in the sunshine of the coming weeks. and that is something (no matter how small) to be happy about. and happiness is key.
