Sitting around in my apartment is a good enough weekend!
In case anyone cares, I didn’t find anyplace interesting to go this weekend so I’m just sitting around in my apartment.
Life is…usual and unusual all at once. Having been sick of winter for over a month, I’m now yearning for summer to return. Warm evenings on green grass, the dry Pullman heat during the day, happy solitude and carefree afternoons. I have this idealized image of summers here, and I know it has little to do with reality, but a few fleeting moments between Mays and Augusts in this town have lived up to it, and it’s these moments I remember. It’s these moments I want back more than anything.
But I can’t have them for very long this year, if at all. If my life goes well, I’ll have an internship. That means I’ll be stripped away from this place and put to work this summer, only to return, not to the happy summer Pullman of my memories but to a busy fall (or winter!) Pullman. As much as I reminisce about summers here, that’s simply one old memory I have to move on from, and hope that somewhere in my future there will be more like it.
