blodeueddWaking came too soon this morning, in the middle of a wonderful dream full of the smell of chilly air and crisp autumn leaves, and the bittersweet flutterings of new romance.
*sigh*
Last year, my trip to Hokkaido at the beginning of October soothed my soul more than I can say, with the season being exactly what it would have been back home. I'm more than half tempted to find out where in Japan the leaves are at their best right now and hop on a train. I miss my Canadian seasons.
Recently, I also marked the anniversary of the beginning of the end with G (not because I keep track of the date on purpose, but because it unfortunately coincided with my mother's birthday), and I've had to admit to myself that while I'm not at all the type to need someone by my side, it's been three years. Sometimes, like now, I really, really miss being in a relationship.
*sigh*
On a lighter note, the dream also included a road trip with my father and brothers; a bridge that had been built between Moosonee and Moose Factory (wtf, brain?); Masa looking an awful lot like Orlando Bloom (I think I was merging their respective characters in Cyrano and Pirates of the Caribbean, but still, wtf, brain???); my coworker's three daughters (she actually only has two); and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nekonezumi taking me to visit the company she wanted to work for, which was some sort of consulting firm whose brochure had large red letters proclaiming "PROBLEM CANDY" on the front.
After careful consideration (fine, it was a flash of inspiration), I've kimeta-ed (god, I love that word! XD) and though I probably won't officially sign up for NaNoWriMo (I'd never make 50,000 words, that's for sure!), I'm going to use November to write up all my travels since I got lazy and stopped writing in spring of 2008, which was the last time I really posted on my travelpod. I need to write about and post pictures of:
- Switzerland (April 2007)
- Kyoto (October 2007)
- Hakone (October 2007)
- Provence (May 2008)
- Osaka/Nara/Himeji (May 2008)
- Taiwan (August 2008)
- Hokkaido (October 2008)
- Atami (January 2009)
- Kanazawa (January 2009)
- Hawaii (May 2009)
- Mount Fuji (August 2009)
- Nagoya (September 2009)
- The Great Train Adventure (September 2009)
- Okinawa, Take II (November 2009)
I should also use that time to sort through all my photos and write up some Random Tokyo Fun posts (like Thanksgiving), because I've got tonnes of pictures, including many I've probably never shared with the people who are in them.
