treasures are to be found when one finally manages to leave the house early enough to take a route that is not the fastest and also remembers to put new batteries in the pencam. marigolds! along with zinnias, my favorites! hundreds of them. i will go back with another camera this weekend. but the pencam was pleased this morning. as was i.
so happy for friday. even the friday of a working weekend.
good for me. i put that pencam around my neck this morning before setting out for the office. this bike is parked in the same place every day, by the stickery bush i go around to push the button to “walk” at the intersection where i nearly die at least once a week. everyone is in such a hurry. the pencam does odd things to metal at an early hour of the morning when the sun is peeking out. but i like.
now the weather is changing, i *really* need to be carrying a camera every. single. day. the same old scene along the same old route is being transformed by a fresh green-gold light every morning. there is absolutely no excuse for not hanging the little pencam around my neck. it surprises me. the way it captures. i have already seen a red leaf. but instead of taking a picture and leaving it for another to see, i brought it home in my pocket.
my poet is better this morning. (or he was when i left) i went to the Merc and brought protein smoothies, no-chicken noodle soup, mango sorbet on a stick and peaches. maybe that will make up for that dreadful dinner of last night. i do not feel better today, but i am trying not to take any more drugs, so i will bear the headache and the chest pains when coughing. oh boo hoo…!! i will take drugs for sleep though! i like them! mmmmm. fake nyquil!
