Like I was saying to Jess...I'm in a bit of a flaky place at the moment, the flakiest I've ever been. I'm sick, I'm tired, I'm dirty, I'm sore, my memory is bad, I don't know what I want, I've been drinking way too much, staying up too late. I'm willingly giving in to pessimist cliche, to the belief that all of life is bittersweet, that there is this tinge of suffering to everything we do. At least, that was me up until about an hour ago. I'm coming down from the proverbial roof, I'm OK, I'm making decisions, I'm going to stick by them. Life still feels pretty bittersweet but I think it may have some hazelnuts in it, that is, if life were a chocolate bar, and that better be what I find after I die because otherwise I will be well disappointed. Heaven is a hazelnut Rittersport, what do you say?
But first I need a shower.

the human behind the bean
I'm a 27 year old Canadian woman. I grew up on Cape Breton Island, although my parents and their families are from Quebec and Ohio. Currently I live in Cape Breton, in a small town by the Bras D'Or Lake.
I can make a good soup and tie my own shoes. I've worked as a nanny, a potter's assistant, a shop clerk, and a janitor. I've also worked in a library, and taught computers to seniors. I've travelled to Australia and New Zealand and across Canada by train. I spent two and a half years in university before I left. I like the way the air smells in the Fall.
Since 2002 - this is my blog, a place for me to write about life, what I experience, to share my photography and my writing. I'm glad you're here!
