Working for the Weekend
Posted on 12 April 2010
The Washington Monument (Look at all that pollen!)
Am I the only one who finds the weekend more stressful than the weekdays? I suppose that would require a great deal of people to like their jobs more than spending time with friends and family.
I took this picture this Saturday after the Japanese Street Festival when my group of friends and I were nearing E on the fuel gauge of energy. I believed we walked a solid eight hours that day — or we were on our feet for that amount of time. It was an interesting day. Saw some sights, listened to some interesting music and saw some interesting art. I’ll see about putting up videos as well.
We took some time to see Date Night which was hilarious and we saw a performance on the Mall, something we hadn’t expected to encounter.
Though the entire time we were out and looking and experiencing these things, I could not help thinking about my stories, especially Last Mage and the titular character. This isn’t really a spoiler, but if you don’t want to know more about the story than what’s being told on the site, then skip over this next paragraph.
Washington D.C. gets broken. Broken like when you drop a hard cookie and it cracks into several pieces. Roads jutting, gas lines going. Just… broken. As we walked through D.C. I kept thinking what would it look like? What would people do in response? What would Elijah do? I already know what he -does-, but not really what he exactly feels about it.
But I digress.
Work is coming along great, and so is my writing. Life is still a constant even keel, though things seem to heading in a much more exciting direction this coming few months.
Until next time.
