What a night.
Work wasn't too bad, though as it's the Christmas season the new stuff isn't coming in all that quickly, so there's a lot of downtime. Booked some time off, gotta use it before the end of the year.
Cold! But no ice on the car so I'm out of the parking lot like a speedy greased thing on fire.
I did almost crash, though - Coming down this poorly-lit street about two turns away from my own road, I find myself staring at a spot on the pavement. Nothing there but I can't help staring, but manage to break the lure of the void when my tyres scrape alongside the kerb. Fun times!
That said it has made me think of something I could put up here, but I'm not too sure about how to approach it. Basically, every so often I'm driving around, or even sometimes just walking, and I'll get this feeling... not so much deja vu, more like remembering something that never happened, as odd as it sounds.
It's mostly the same; me travelling somewhere on foot or in the car, the streets are dark, the setting is an ambiguous cityscape, the worrisome night-time is at once oppressive and welcoming as if I've known these streets all my life. It's a relaxing segue from whatever journey I'm making my way though in the real world at the time, and given how boring my local area is now that I've been everywhere, it's a place I'd like to see more of.
Just a shame I can't turn it on and off like a lightswitch, might relieve some of this boredom, this ennui. But then, anything new would, eh.
