Adventures
Oh the places I could go.
I woke up at five am, thinking of the usual things or not so usual things. But awake much too early.
It suddenly struck me, that I wanted to take the train to fire island and rent a bike and ride and ride on the little paths that they have (not that I’ve done much bike riding of late but there aren’t really a lot of cars there, just little bike paths which seems like a perfect place to get your riding legs). It wasn’t so much that I had the idea but that I could do it and not because I wanted anyone to come along with me, but Just Because I Could. Whenever.
To explain a little: I’d fallen into a rut. A sort of paved in the ground, falling back into the same old routine whenever the opportunity arose kind of rut. I’d become dependent on people to share in experiences with me. Not that having someone interesting around can’t make an experience richer. But its the ‘er’ that became important. It would already be rich.
And suddenly just like that I was dreaming up little day trips (and hopefully thought will materialize into action). Places in New York that I’d always wanted to go but neglected because I was always waiting for the perfect company. My little rut of ruts that I’d believed I’d grown out of but never quite had. But oh, the places. I had to make a list. I’m ready to plan for a few adventures.
But first maybe a few more hours of sleep.
