I have many fond memories of going to Six Flags when I was a kid; there wasn't anything better. And of course, we had a list of rides we wanted to ride, shows we wanted to see etc. etc. Whenever we were finished with a ride, we would walk up to the Six Flags map--usually in front of the bathrooms--and decide what we were going to ride next. There was always a bright red X on the map with the words "You Are Here" typed underneath. Just in case you didn't know where you were.
We've been house-sitting for the past three weeks and we just got finished unloading our car and we're trying to settle into a routine. I feel out of sorts, discombobulated...it's like I don't know where I am.
There's no better way to be in the here and the now...than when you are writing. Even when things aren't going especially smooth, creating has a way of putting you in the moment. And the moment is really all you have anyway, so it's nice to be present.
