Down by the river we'll dream a while

yuuagoWhen I stepped out this evening I realized I had mail. A surprise. Hadn't had anything in my mailbox for days, but there it was, a little package from Minni. Ahhh, salmiakki, just the treat I was needing. Haa, my parents tease me for liking it - they think it's awful stuff - but it's just an, er, acquired taste, I guess. In any case, finding that package, man, it did me good. I'm so lucky to know her.
I've been kind of down in the dumps these past few days, and that combined with not having much going on has resulted in me not having anything to write about. After receiving the package I went out and took a good long walk down by the river. I think it did me some good, but who's to know, really.
I took my camera with me when I went out, but I neglected to wear proper shoes, so I wasn't able to get down under the bridge to take any graffiti pictures, alas. I did manage to make my way in enough to get one photo, though.
Recently I've been seeing more and more stencil graffiti in Saskatoon. It's strange; this time last year, I don't remember seeing it much at all, and now it's everywhere. To be honest, I think I prefer freehand stuff, provided it's interesting, even if it doesn't usually look quite as clean as the stencil stuff.
Maybe next time I'll wear proper shoes so I can scramble around the river rocks taking pictures. We'll see.
Other than that, nothing going on... I've been doing some reading. Just finished up another volume of Black Jack; going to take a break from that and read some Pratchett for a while instead. So, I'm working my way through Wee Free Men now. Been slowly updating the Nordex (parts 10-12 covered, currently working on 9). Haven't been writing at all - I've been trying, but lately it's been absolutely no go. I sit down, I get my pen, I open up my notebook, and... not even a damn sentence. Geeze. I've been like this for a while, and it's just so frustrating. Mentioned to a friend, maybe I should try writing something entirely different from what I usually would. Not sure, but... maybe I will.
