Sweater weather

For the first time in several months, I put on a jacket today. Just for the evening, but all day before then, people were asking me why I wasn’t wearing one.

Sometimes, stories just kind of tell themselves.

Central City

I’ve gotten most of the urban exploration out of my system over the past weekend and am now beginning to really appreciate the city that I was destined to discover.

I would love to drive this as my day job.

I’m back at the airport in Boston. Today’s journey already feels a little bit familiar.

A slow month

After a month off, I think I need to come back here and talk things out on my blog again. I ended up back in Toronto lately and took a nice skyline photo, though.

I’ve been gone for a while. I think I need a real break.

Sometimes it’s really hard to wait for something, especially if you’re in the habit of being a little bit nervous. I think I’ve gone down that path a little bit too far this summer.

Life is about them. I guess that’s the whole point. Sometimes, even when you know these things, it’s hard to take it to heart — but I think it’s a worthwhile lesson to learn, right?

One of the promises I made to myself this summer that I hadn’t yet achieved, as of yesterday, was eating food good enough to warrant photography. That wrong has now finally been righted. This was my first time trying Korean food!

Keeping on

There are nice bike paths here, but also this Ram 1500.

I guess I’m as hipster as I ever was. I’m back at the Park Avenue Starbucks, which I haven’t been to in a while. It’s pretty chill, this is a nice area.
