I love listening to music while reading by the pool mid-afternoons, the warm earthiness of the marshy canal mixed up with the sterile smell of chlorine. Mornings, I guzzle between 2-6 cups of coffee depending on how motivated I am to get out of bed (on that note, the whole coffee ordeal is rather messy since I spill half of the grounds on the floor and have to clean them up). Driving to work is not a bother, I like the time alone in motion: going somewhere. Although, sometimes I think I'd rather go nowhere particularly. Listen to musing with the windows down and buy a box of oranges or strawberries from a pick up truck on the side of the road and drive up (or down) the coast. I decidedly prefer blue pens to black ones, but I must use black pens at work. This prejudice (about the black vs blue) has been mine since childhood and is not mere contrariness. (But to you, anonymous interneteer,I do confess an inclination to tiny rebellions against the rules and edicts now and again.) Right, where was I? I ramble a bit, mostly in my head. I enjoy exercising after work while listening to music. Music. MUSIC! That is something I am voracious for lately. Voracious, this is an adjective for how I do things. When I love something, I never want it just a little... which is why I tend toward fevered burst of productivity followed by more mundane endeavors. I'm astray again, but to some it up-- I like coffee, sunshine, reading, blue ink pens, being contrary at times, exercising and listening to music. I just discovered opera on iTunes... I regret not having a tv to see one on PBS or the like but paying for cable just happens to be one of the things I'm contrary about. There's some box I should buy to make the tv work, but I don't watch it enough to remember looking for it at the store whilst I'm out. Well, why am I here? Curiosity. Who are you? Where are you from? How many cups of coffee do you drink a day? What beautiful places do you see? For such an inquisitive person at heart I've done remarkably little traveling myself. Perhaps, reading pacifies the impulse making it easier to think of work duties and finances instead. Say hello if you like, whether we are stranger or estranged acquaintance. Ciao, Katheryn
