I'm at my house again in Southwest Portland. My living room here overlooks the river that separates East from West, and from the edge of the lawn by my condo I can see two bridges and downtown and the trees lining the East bank. It's amazing that the sky is a faded but bright grey with a sliver of sun, even though I am starting this entry after 5pm. I love these rainy nights. I forgot the feeling of a mild winter where it seldom snows.
I don't want to move from here.
Tonight and last night gave me feelings of both peace and contemplation. Today was the first day where I spent the entire day at home in all of January, I believe. I've been surrounded by people since before Christmas; really, the socializing started kicking in after Thanksgiving and took a hard-left after December. Alone time is necessary for my soul, though. I have to remember this.
