Thoughts and things
I was driving home from work two days ago and I had a sense of something...it came on so strong, and even now it lingers in my mind. I could (and still can) smell the place, feel the day, the clothes I'm wearing in my head (if that makes any sense), and feel your presence with me.The day is a winter's day. Not a cold february, more of a grey March, late in winter, not yet spring. We are in Sunnysides and it's a saturday. I can see the watery light coming through the window and shining on the wood floor by the Astrology books, and that is the smell I can smell. I love the scent of that store. In my image we're standing close together, looking at books, laughing and having fun. I think we buy something.
Then there's a jumble of images and feelings that follow. One is that we end up at Picolo Grande for hot chocolates. But more than that, I can see us in a living room. You're flopped in one chair reading and I'm flopped in another doing the same. I think you're in grey sweats and a bulky sweater, your comfy clothes. I'm in jeans and a button-down shirt and T. It all feels like "home".
I still now have the scent of Sunnyside in my mind, the image of watery sunlight in the window, and you with your legs over the arm of a chair.
I like that image.
