Entry: Purple. Saturday, August 19, 2006



Today I went on a lovely trip to the Elora village. I like little shops with the funky stuff. I especially love little shops with funky stuff when I have absolutely no agenda and a little bit of spending cash. Lately, I've been throwing out stuff from the apartment and getting back to feeling a little more simple. So I kept focusing on these curly tall twigs. They were in all the stores. You see them in tall vases in corners. I particularly became fond of some that were spray painted a bright green. I kept ignoring them because I refused to pay twenty dollars for twigs. And then I saw this purple vase. For ten bucks. Then I saw some bigger cooler twirly twigs for thirteen dollars. Yes that's right. I walked around the Elora village with bright green twigs and that purple vase.

Infact when I returned home I rearranged my living room so that my purple vase and green twings would look awesomeness. I put little lights around it, put some bamboo sticks in that were hiding in a corner. And now I'm listening to Harvest Moon. Smile. I also bought sunflowers and have them sitting in the front window. My head feels just fine. I kept walking in and out of cool stores until my feet said...damn. I was quite content with myself.

At one point I sat by a bed of tall sunflowers and a shopkeeper came out of his shop to say hello. I smiled and he told me to follow him to this particular sunflower. " Look at this, a flower within a flower. Everything is crazy in Elora." I looked at what he was talking about. I saw this crazy huge sunflower and right in the center, another sunflower was growing. The charm of this little village was killing me. I saw this "For Rent" sign in a window above a shop called "Pariscope"...everything from Paris. I went so far as to inquire and learned that in order to rent the apartment you had to rent the apartment you had to rent a shop too. I sighed and continued on my way. There goes that.My feet were  really killing me. Flip Flops are not the way to go at all for long walks.

I liked Elora muchly. No doubt, I'll probably head back there soon. For now I've got to jet and get back to more chillin'.

See y'all soon.
