Lilie Green

i'm feeling a bit homesick for California lately. i haven't missed the US since i came here 2 and 1/2 years ago, but lately i find myself longing for things like brown paper grocery bags, oatmeal, big kitchens, big everything.
i miss the pastel shades of sunlight and sunday morning breakfasts at greasy diners.
i miss being able to wear anything i want. there is like an unspoken law against cleavage in this country. people are completely comfortable bathing in public, but god forbid you show a little boob action.
today has been a red cowboy boots kind of day. took my sketchbook and crayons out for a walk and looked for inspiration. i want to drive far, far away.
