It felt so good
on Thursday to be free of constant back pain. I went to Opus and got some
foamcore — four big sheets of it for plan B building the defiant dress armature.
It was too nice
to stay home once I got back so I drove
to the park (!). I walked to the aquarium’s outdoor Waterfall Café for lunch but it was closed. The fast food joint at
Lumberman’s Arch was open though and I was thrilled with it as an alternative
because it was supurb to be in the tranquility of the park before tourist
season.
At this time of
year, inside the park, is heavenly. It’s
void of assholes; it’s all families and happy people on their own. The seawall
is too busy for me but inside the park is paradise. It’s a beautiful time of
year in the park; everything is erect and about to burst; the leaves of
everything pointing straight up.
I walked for
two hours and it was just perfect. Next time I’ll take the bus and walk longer.
I love the park and I still love walking.
Back at the
defiant dress armature in the sunshine of late afternoon I’m seeing success.
Dwight called this
afternoon from Cranbrook and Bruce calls often from Italy. Their calls remind
me that I’m blessed. I never friendships them for granted; they are my most
valuable possession. And tonight Beth is coming for drinks at six and I’ve got
a reservation for us at one of my favourite neighbourhood places, Le Brasserie…on a sunlit night.
