Happy Things I Love.... Saturday, I guess! It's only 1:45 in the morning on Saturday, so I'm counting this as Friday since I haven't properly gone to bed yet. I mean, I have gone to bed, and I'm actually writing this in bed, but I took a long nap after work and now I can't sleep properly.
It's stupid. This is how naps ruin lives! But what's not stupid is all the awesome things to love about this week.
City Life! I'm resettled into the city again after a few weeks spent house-sitting in the countryside, and although I love the countryside with all my heart (especially on beautiful summertime days, getting grubby in the dirt and relaxing on the deck) I know that I made the right choice in moving to the cities. Tonight I ran as the sun was going down, then walked the tail end in the dark. It reminded me of being back in Tokushima when I would roam the city at night on my bike (probably because it was so damn hot today).
Summertime. Dirt! Breezes! Blue skies! Birdsong! Patios! Windows down!
Kubo and the Two Strings! Tbh I'm not sure how excited I am about this... I didn't see Boxtrolls yet, which was the last thing this studio put out (it looked amazing). The stop-action animation is gorgeous. I wish there was more shamisen music in the trailer, and less kokyu... Because that kid is carrying a shamisen! A stupid complaint? Maybe, but not if the magical powers of his instrument is the whole point of the movie.
Connections. Lately all sorts of people are coming out of the woodwork... people I haven't spoken to in ages, new friends, passers-by. I wouldn't say I have a strong connection with everybody, but I keep seeing amazing sparks in people, and having a sudden sense of You! Oh yeah you! You get it! Amazing!
Hope your week is going well!
