Moccassins. Scarf. Coffee. Jason Mraz.
That four word title sums up my day perfectly. They are the words that would first come to mind if asked to describe my day. It's Autumn here now, a little bit early for the rest of the world. But I love it. This is by far my favorite time of year and in my book it couldn't be shorter...that's the only downside, it doesn't last long here. I can't get enough of the smell in the air, somehow it's different. And the perfect breeze, not too hot, not too cold...the colored leaves. They are finally their true colors (not to sound cliche or anything)...the purples, golds, reds and oranges that color the mountain sides...as if they were a page in a coloring book that a small child colored all over with, using every shade in their 24-pack of Crayola Crayons. I spent my day doing childcare at the church, and browsing Borders in town while drinking a "Large Hazelnut Toffee Mocha" from Seattle's Best and listening to my freshly-purchased Jason Mraz CD, "We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things." on the drive home in my little orange car. How fantastic. Not an every day occurence, though sometimes I wish it were. Anyways, none of this really matters in the long run, except for the fact that it describes the day that wouldn't be "special" at all, except for the fact that today means, 34 more until I leave for Uganda. This my friends, is very happy. Yes indeed.
