Currently Listening To: Kings and Queens, by 30 Seconds To Mars
I love good weather. Not too hot or cold. A sunny day with a cool breeze.
After a day of playing with Nerf blasters, I decided to take it easy the next day.
I overslept because of DST, but I managed to quickly shower, throw on some clothes and go down to Georgetown.
It was somewhat crowded, but I could still find seating.
Before I got writing, I had a refreshing lunch:
With the sun still high in the sky, and a cool breeze blowing, I grabbed a cold beer and soda and got to writing. Another chapter knocked out.
Also took the time to enjoy sitting near the Potomac River:
It was just great listening to my favorite albums, enjoying my favorite beverages, and watching people enjoy life:
- A young couple exercising together.
- Group of college students studying and enjoying each other’s company.
- A woman enjoying quality time with her dog.
- A family throwing bread for the ducks.
It’s time like this I truly enjoy.
Being a writer requires observation and that’s what you’re doing here. It is my favorite part of writing, acquiring that which to write about. I try to tell friends and loved ones that my inspiration is all around me, everywhere I go. All I need to do is open my eyes and the world is there.
This blog entry is an awesome reminder to me.
One of my first assignments in a poetry workshop was to look out my bedroom window, observe, and then write. Our senses are our strongest inspirations.
Thanks for the comment. Glad my post was an awesome reminder!
