While others are lounging near their television sets today, I will be at work. And as everyone else lets the hours pass, as they fall further and further into their crossed-legged positions, I will be remembering the time before work and before president's day. The night before.
I was focused on the large field lying before me, dead grass swaying. My hat and jacket reminded me of the song that inspired this trip. Boyfriend framed each shot as I stared further out into the open space.
I had imagined this trip months ago after watching the video. I hoped for explosions and tanks rolling up beside me as I darted away, but only whispers of the Civil War remained.
I was told that I looked like Buster from Arrested Development, and I don't disagree, but my real inspiration was the Beatles and their military-inspired set. Staring out your office window will be hard when you know the field sways just an hour away.
However, I have plenty of time this summer to escape away from the city. I anticipate long trips through Virginia and Maryland, as I follow the sun.
