Yesterday it rained all day. I went out briefly to buy food. I stayed in all day looking at little screens and housekeeping stuff. All the busy work I've been meaning to do. It was productive but man I sure looked forward to today when it was going to be sunny. There was a super cool thunder and lightning show at day's end.
My cycle computer hasn't been working. I've tried everything to reset it. In the end I just removed it and rode so I've no idea how many miles or minutes was the ride. Who cares. The main reason I keep track is for calorie measurement - to assess how much I burned. It tells me whether I need to eat or if I'm all good.
After dropping off my groceries I set out about 13:30. The streets were still pretty empty. I only remembered much later that a new curfew was announced a couple days ago. Off the streets after 9pm on weekdays and all day Sat and Sun. Except for tourists. Foreigners can roam freely. I talked this over with the hostel owner. It makes no sense, if the intent is to halt the spread of the virus. Foreigners and locals are both biological units. The virus don't care.
I got back near my temporary home in time to plunk it on a bench to watch the sunset. I felt pergect. I said aloud, to myself - what do you fo when everything is just right? This is how it feels. What do you do?
For so long thete has been some element that has kept the moment from being petfect. Its ben too cold, too loud, too busy, crowded, too running out of time, too something. But now hete I am, on the bench in the warm evening air in a quiet park with no deadline, no harassers, no nothing. This moment is perfect. I've long wondered what my internal environment would feel like when everything about is tuned to the right station.
It was what it was.
Mixed in with todays pics are odds n ends pics that I take while walking around.
