Pushing the clouds away

A beautiful, sunny, chilly day here in Jersey City. A day for taking a bike ride or a stroll. I know there must be things going on in this big little town of ours but I haven't quite figured out where to find them yet. Evenings and weekends have better odds...I suppose most people are working at this time. But aren't any of them working in art galleries or anything? I think part of the difficulty is that I don't quite know what I'm looking for.

Plus I want my adventure-mate with me. And really I don't mind being solo at home, as not-cool as that probably seems. Today I will plan a real meal, shop for it, and cook it while music plays. And I'll be so happy to do it.

There are two couchsurfers from Czech Republic here with us. They go out and explore all day so we've only had a bit of time to spend with each other. That's ok though. I've needed to stay local to continue my job search, and they seem to want to explore on their own, and I'm more exciting on weekends anyway. We have two more sets of couchsurfers coming up in the next month, one pair seems to be looking forward to spending time cooking and hanging out in our home a little with us. That'll be nice, and we'll talk about Denver, and life will be good. Because life is good, and it's important to remember that once in a while.
