Everything Looks Far Away.

So today was a pleasant time. Not like HOLY SHIT THAT WAS AWESOME but just very pleasant.

I was asked what the highlight of my day was today and I decided it was definitely picking blueberries at my Nana's house. David, Mom and I went out to her blueberry patch before we left and just picked blueberries and gave each other a hard time and it was so enjoyable. The most interesting part about it was how my brother and I were so much older in the still youthful environment. Back when we were lads we used to do this activity every summer. Now we've changed but the blueberry patch has stayed the same so I guess it's as close to a time machine I will probably ever get.

Yesterday afternoon I went to my brother's soccer game at the high school. I was being very a-social with my parents because I really wanted to listen to "Highlands" by Bob Dylan all the way through. They were fake mad and I just smiled and put on my father's borrowed headphones. Alright reader, sometime before you die... just listen to the whole thing... and take it in. If you hate his voice sorry but you should listen to it.

The sun is beginning to shine on me
But it's not like the sun that used to be
The party's over, and there's less and less to say
I got new eyes
Everything looks far away

Just cool.

The best part was when I trudged up the hill to the softball field, looking down on the turf and I just sat down in the tall grass. I expected it to be really wet on my BUTT since my shoes got soaked on the way up but it wasn't. That was a neat thing. I just sat up there, looking at the panorama of artificial mountains and facilities beneath the ominous clouds brewing yet another mild tempest. I though about a lot up there but I didn't really think about much at the same time. I guess I was just up there to sit. And that's what I did.
