Well isn't spring a time for surprises.I had made up my mind-- I was going back up north, back from where I came, leaving Toronto. It was a great idea: save rent money, and all the other ridiculous expenses of this place, and conjure up funds to meet an old friend in Spain. It's still my plan, of course, to spend the end of April till the beginning of June at a work exchange in Europe. But, serendipity calls! My landlord offers me a free place to stay, and extra money to paint a mural of my choosing, in the comfort of my own home. So last minute, I've decided to stay for a bit more of April to make some cash and paint something lovely, leave my mark behind.
Secondly, I'm sitting in the laundromat with Damien, chatting about how great the small surprises are, when an old friend calls me up. Haven't talked to her in months on the phone, so the call is a nice surprise. Turns out, she's coming to Toronto from Muskoka, and was thinking about taking a road trip south. Where? Who knows, somewhere warm I'm thinking. She asks me if I want to go, no plans, sleep-in-the-car kind of deal. Why not, right?
So I'm gathering up my passport and scrounging together some clothes to skip off to America, somewhere, for an unknown amount of time. Synchrodestiny! I was just thinking I needed a change of scenery. Farewell to you, Canada, for a short while. Upon my return I will start up this blog right, as I had intended to.
Anyway, I'm Brittney Rand. Nice to meet you. If this isn't exactly my style of an introduction to my life, I don't know what is.
