this is sort of about taco soup {sort of}

i think the thing that i love most 

about living in a place 

where the seasons change 

is that i'm constantly changing.

changing what i wear.

what i make for dinner.

what music i listen to.

you know,

how the dark comes sooner in the winter,

and stays away longer in the summer.

getting used to those sort of things.

and it's like you're getting together with an old friend.

one you haven't talked to in awhile.

when you're getting into changing.

like making taco soup.

after a long summer without it.

and while you've been gone,

and they've been

you've changed a bit.

so when you come back,

you've got lots to tell.

lots to talk about.

and there's a type of visiting 

with your old self and new self that you do.

and it's great.

it's just great.

the taco soup too.
