Peace and Quiet
After five days of constant travel and walking, we got back home last Sunday night. Now I am anjoying some peace and quiet in this nice suburbia. I could imagine getting bored just staying home, but at this point that’s just too far off to happen. I actually like doing nothing here, just watching a lot of good (select) cable shows and finally having the time to read a book, especially when I know that I will be going back to the usual hustle and bustle of work in less than a week’s time.
This place my folks have here is the perfect “quiet place”, like a writer’s retreat (except I’m not a writer). However, one cannot do much here without one’s own means of transportation – and herein lies the rub. Well, there’s my dad’s bike in the garage, but the place is just encouraging me to bum around. I might just try and bike out tomorrow. And maybe ask my siblings to go watch a movie with me.
I still would have liked to stay longer if not for work, and the friends I miss.
