Weather-wise, it was quite nice. Despite the heat inland, a strong breeze off the ocean kept things relatively cool here. And the late-afternoon clouds were pretty. Won't be that way tomorrow, though...
For me, not so swell a day.
There are lots of things in life that I learn by inference, by reading the tea leaves, so to speak. I have to go by gut reactions. And today, I learned something that distresses me greatly. Not unexpected, and nothing I could do anything about, but unpleasant all the same.
The end of each day is a small death. Some days, the death is larger. Today, dreams I should not have entertained, should have rejected as foolish, impossible and ultimately unsatisfying, have ended.
It's almost dark now. A long night lies ahead.
Pretty piccie :)
ReplyDeletePut death in the coffin for the night and fo'get bout it.
The end of a day is a death, right, but then the beginning of the next day - well you know what that is...
ReplyDeletecheriann -- tomorrow can only be a little bit diminished.
ReplyDeleteInt -- wish it was that easy, honey. It's going to be a long, unhappy night....
ReplyDeleteVery pretty picture and I love the one of the eclipse. I didn't even know there was an eclipse. I'm so informed lately!
ReplyDeleteDamn. I hope a better dream replaces the one that closed out. One that draws you in without you even knowing it.
ReplyDeleteI wish that for me as well.
