Not much to say at the moment, maybe because it's late and I need some sleep and so everything that has been happening seems like too much effort to talk about. Especially since you never write back, err, I mean, shout out.
I went to Halifax for a quick day and a half, wherein I busked, kind of, and swam, really, and talked lots with old friends. I also purchased the new Gillian Welch album, against my better judgement, and some Nina Simone. This and an extravagantly red-and-orange sarong were my only treats. The other purchases (85$ for a passport, 15$ for wine for my hosts, 10$ for cheese, cherry tomatos and apples) were necessary.
On the way home in the shuttle I was seated next to Mary MacDonald, aged 65+ by her own admission, resident of Sydney Mines. We talked about drinking (her favorite is white rum, but she also likes a good Singapore Sling, and she knows her college-aged grand-daughter can drink the lot of us under the table), home baking, breast feeding, and a good lot of other topics. Once I even caught myself saying,"Kids these days!" What's happening to me?

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!
