kansas city missourah

day off today. that is pretty sweet. we are in this pretty amazing part of kansas city. there is this cool area with all kinds of shops and cool places. it is super mellow but it is an area that you would expect to see all kinds of crazies walking around. i have been feeling in a very classy mood lately. i don't know what it is. a girl maybe? i don't know. i have been listening to a lot of thelonius monk and nina simone. i think it could be a reaction to the trashy dingy clubs i find myself in every night. ya but, nate and i just had this classy (gay) lunch today at this our door cafe type place. very relaxing though. i am in one of those moods where i feel like i need something to jump start me. we have been spending the last three weeks (which have been wonderful and amazing) running or driving around like crazy. everything you do for yourself has to be during the small quiet moments in between sleep and craziness. it is rare to have a big chunk of time like this to do all the things you've been wanting to do. for exapmle, i got a new ukulele and i want to sit down and spend some good time trying to learn how to really play it well. ok this is boring and not what i want to talk about. this is what i want to talk about. nate and i were talking today about the importance of having people in your life that understand you. i think for myself i don't think about this much because when there is ever akwardness i usually tend to think that it is something wrong with me
