it rained today. santa barbara has been warm and sunny and extraordinarily beachy the last few weeks, and today, it rained. i find this incredibly refreshing. i need a little rain in my life. i took myself to a movie last night. i love going to movies alone, but last night i did not want to go to a movie alone. i was craving company, craving a movie companion. so i texted a friend. actually, i texted about 6 friends, and no one could go. so i guess i was going alone after all. it's only the times when i HAVE to be alone, that i resent it. when it's chosen and embraced, i can find time to adore and woo myself quite successfully. however, when this time is forced on me or is the result of no-replys to my text messages, it feels uncomfortable, like too-tight jeans.
so in light of all this extra time i am finding myself having, i'm taking up some healthy activities, like exercise. and i'm working on the other ones. i'm not that creative or inspired, yet. baby steps are working for me at the moment.
(the picture above is a dress that i bought almost a year ago and have still not found an occasion to wear it.)
