So. Its fall now!

Picture this.

Its mid afternoon, the fog is settling on the water. I step out of my building, the ivy on the brick has all turned to fall colors. I have a tea in my mug. I'm bundled up, jacket, scarf and gloves. The air is crispy and mellow.

Fall smacked me in the face with a paddle today.

Not that i'm bummed, I love fall alot! I was just surprised. Like when you think you're about to drink water and its actually clear pop. Surprise!

I love fall. Its my favorite. It just feels so good. Its crisp and you can wear boots and jeans and scarfs and jackets and all sorts of super awesome comfy warm things.

Anyways.

Things have been so crazy lately. Thanksgiving was an absolute gongshow. But I'm the type of person who thinks of family holidays as disasters. If there isn't some form of painful turkey explosion or family throwdown, it isn't really the holidays.

So true to form, I spent 10 hours all together on the train death tube of pain and suffering. The pain and time consuming frustration of riding the train is second only to what i imagine the chinese water torture is like. Never again.

Then cody was off to Calgary. And that was okay. We skyped, we chatted, he came home and brought me super rad tshirt!!
i love tshirts.

I feel like this is the time of year when everything changes. New weather, new wardrobe, new days. I always feel a bit like a lost puppy during fall. This year is no different. Living in Vic has been both really good and really complicated. I love our home and our life here. What I struggle with is the isolation from friends and family. Trying to build relationships is alot harder then you think. And I`m alot shyer then you know. And so i just... work and play and figure things out.

I wish there was several parts of me that i could designate to seperate things. But I guess life would be too easy.

Fuck you, Life.
