chapter IV : where the deer and the antelope play

Its been a hard day here in Laramie. This is one of the first days that I really wish I was back in Seattle. If for nothing else, distraction. Here it is virtually impossible to separate yourself from...well...yourself. Going to play at my favorite puppy park where I would just talk to other puppy enthusiasts and watch the little furry ones play.

Here if I go to the off leash area there is never a soul there, and I'm left alone to my thoughts. Ugh. I do enjoy watching all of the wildlife here, but it is still something that is taking a while to get used to. Especially living so far away from the town I have to remember that sometimes the silence between you and nature are natural. There isn't anything coming. Even though it is completely dark, unlike any kind of darkness in Seattle or the suburbs, I need to remember that it is safe. I'm okay, nothing is coming to get me.

We have coyotes run around our yard at night, its kind of crazy. I've only seen a few, but I know that they're there. We had a bird with its head completely ripped off in our front yard the other day. Cute.

Well I'll keep updating this when I have the chance. I've just been so busy with school and rehearsals that I haven't had much time to even be eating. Hopefully I'll have time to do that as well.
