Fireflies

Today was another fun day in Austin. Started out with some sleeping in, and then when Heather and Emrys went to a suspension meet, I ventured out on my own. I went to Thrift Land, where I found more awesome clothes than I knew what to do with! A few outfits later, I came back and played with Elliot, the puppy, for a while. I also went through my things. I have been leaving things everywhere I go, and will continue to do so on this entire trip. It is a cleansing process for me, and really feels good. Example, I left a pair of jeans that barely fit me at the hotel in Mississippi. I was hoping the maid would like them and they would fit her. Or her daughter.

This evening, we returned to Bowl Creek with the puppy, for some rock climbing. I saw fireflies for the first time in a great many years. Then we went for vegan soft serve at this place called Toy Joy. Amazing! The flavor was Cafe Cubano, so I got it with a vanilla swirl. Cutest store ever as well, it had Hello, Kitty, and Monchichi's (yes, Courtney, Monchichi's!), and weird toys, books, and games of all kinds.

After that, we went to the shop where Heather and I got some new jewelry. I have a sparkling naval ring, and she got some ear accessories.

Now I am eating left over tacos, waiting for laundry to finish, and hanging out. Tomorrow we head to Dallas. I hope to see more than cowboys.
