A Standing Motif

More often than not, I seem to begin with "Well, it's been awhile," and this time it's no different. It has been awhile. But the world keeps turning and life goes on regardless of whether or not I document it at any regular interval. Have had a great summer so far, seen many friends and visited many new places. Even bought a new car,which was momentous for me since I've been lucky enough to always get hand-me-downs when I needed wheels. I've always been of the mentality that a car is a car. If it takes you from point a to point b then it has done it's job admirably. I now know how ignorant I was about the fine machine that is the automobile. This car is so fabulous, I don't even know where to begin other than I can now understand people's fascination with them. Smooth and powerful accelleration is a total rush. A guilty pleasure. So, although this post started out with a common, repeated theme, I guess we are here shifting over to the theme of movement, which seems present in several aspects of my life. Love that feeling where new things are happening because I've worked and set them into motion. Makes me feel....effectual. That's a nice place to be.
