What a wonderful post. The thing I miss most about living in the city is just that. So much to see. I used to sit in cafes all the time, soaking in the world around me, observing everything and everyone. You brought me right back to my years in Montreal - it was my favorite thing to do. Thank you.

P.S. I am not the least bit surprised that you too are a fellow gemini.

This was beautifully done.
I wonder what i’d look like to someone taking down observations… probably hair blowing in the wind, looking frantically at her watch, trying to carry things gracefully without looking like an arse.

i wish i spent more time looking and observing than self-obsessing about unimportant things.

you my dear, are a wonderful observer!

I used to be able to walk home from work…course, now I’m working from home, so you can’t beat that either! Yesterday we walked downtown…which was apparently too far for these very pregnant legs to carry me. Ah well. :)

This was a lovely narrative, by the way.

This inspired me. It also made me miss my old commute via metro or my mile walk to the office. Now I have a boring drive. Ugh.
