title says it all.

I found myself smiling while I was driving one night, and it wasn’t just that I simply like driving, but it’s that I had a pair of about thirty-dollar, leather driving gloves on.

For those of you people who are probably thinking, how unnecessary that is… All you haters! (Lol.) My response is: so what?! The reason that I smiled, was because having the gloves on while driving was just nice. That’s it. It was a small thing that I just found I appreciated. There’s no specific reason I can think of as to why they were nice to have on, they just were. That’s that.

What I’m trying to say is, try to appreciate the small things in life. And I could give another example, but I feel like it may be redundant, because for those of you who care to read this, you get my point already.

PS Sunshine: It was supposed to rain today… Or something. JFAV is today though, so it couldn’t rain. ;P (Another small thing to appreciate, if you like.)

I hate it when your iPod and phone both are on the brink of dying so your music sources are gone and you go insane.

You won’t find any Chronomancers in Palm Springs, but I wanted to use the drive to Palm Springs as an analogy for how I feel like this quarter is going (I’ll get to the Chronomancer thing later…).

If you’ve ever driven to Palm Springs, you might have noticed that there are actually a lot of interesting things to see. This is only if you really take the time to glance (I say glance of course, because you are driving, but if you’re a passenger, then you can take more than a glance, I guess). These things all pass by though, because there is another thought that overshadows these details, making them seem less significant. That thought is the endpoint of the journey, Palm Springs.

Anyway, although I have taken the time to glance at these details, they are but a blur, because I seem to be preoccupied all the time; I feel like I’m always worried about the future, and can’t really enjoy the present.

There are other thoughts that my mind are filled with, such as not missing my exit, how much gas I have left, the crazy drivah that’s going way too fast. And speaking of speeding…

That’s another one of the elements of the drive to Palm Springs that I’d like to discuss. The freeways seem really wide on the way to Palm Springs, and the land around the freeways is relatively flat, so it always feel like a crawl, because the scenery is not changing that rapidly, and I get impatient, wanting to go faster, not realizing that the speedometer is sitting at a chill 120 mph. Too fast…

And so with these two factors, one arrives at Palm Springs, just glad to be there, and not really remembering much of the trip.

The issue I have with this quarter is that I feel like I am going through it like I’m driving through Palm Springs, but at the same time, that endpoint, the “Palm Springs” is missing. How unsettling…

That being said, I would like one of two things to occur. Either I find a “Palm Springs” so that this 120 mph daze of days stops at one point, or that my days slow down, so that I can fully appreciate those things that I usually only get to glance at. These aren’t intended to be mutually exclusive. If both can happen, then I feel like it would be that much better.

Wishing I was a Chronomancer (sorry nerdy boys and girls that’s the small bit about Chronomancers, haha).

I was told by the3rdmusicroom, that I should post something, so that my page doesn’t look so WHITE!
