Going away to my favorite city first thing in the morning. Packing light, because I want to spend whatever few days I have there walking and imbibing the atmosphere and the views.

Rosa's been on the backburner for a while, not because I've lost interest, but because freeing it from the NaNoWriMo framing allowed me to explore the endless possibilities the setting and the characters provide — and it's overwhelming to try and figure out at once. It's unfair how many awesome things I have to put aside for the story to remain coherent — but also liberating, in that once I'm settled with something, going down the road is going to be much easier.

Soon is my birthday, and I've decided to take inventory of my life. "Ten Favourite Songs" is one seemingly superficial aspect that I want to write down. For me, the list is important. I heard once that the music we listen to defines us, in that it shows us what we're looking for and what we want to be.

I wonder what is there to find in the tunes that frequent my playlist.
