I've found that I really love spending time on my own.
I went out to Northport tonight, just because it is a stunningly beautiful little town.
I just sat down in the grass, and people watched. There was a family with three little girls, and they were having a late night picnic. There was a group of five boys, jumping off the dock into the lake. There were two men, having a chat while one fished. All I could do was just sit back and be thankful that I live where I do.
I mean, come on. I can see Lake Michigan from my porch. My town is beautiful, and everything there is to do is within a ten mile radius of my home. There are plenty of little shops, cafés, and restaurants. Many of these places offer live music on the weekends.
Speaking of my town, we have a film festival that follows the Cherry Fest each year. It was founded by Michael Moore, and it's becoming quite popular! Well, I've decided to volunteer this year, and get some experience in something new. I also thought it would be a really cool thing to do for my town. I think I'll have fun. I even get a t-shirt and a lanyard so I look all official and stuff.
Anyway, just a little update on life - I've been sick, but it's my own fault because I've been eating junk for the last two days. I still don't have a job, and I am starting to lose all hope for that. Lastly, I'm getting fish soon. I'm not sure what to name them, but maybe it will be an easier decision once I actually GET them and know what they will look like.
Hope all is well with you!
