Pittsburgh

On Saturday I was able to cast off from the stresses of the whole grad school search thing. Brandon took Gabriel and me and Gabriel's friend to a favorite cafe near his house called Quiet Storm. It was like Casa Zimbabwe in the best of ways. We sat round a table and read and wrote all the while the snow fell silently outside. It kind of reminded me of Denmark.

I'm home now in Berkeley.. it's been a quite long day but arriving back here feels perfect, lounging luxuriously on sofas around a fire in the fireplace, falling into the hypnotic, hopelandic voices of Sigur Ros.
