Dammit

I had an idea for a pretty extensive post this morning, and got sidetracked with work stuff so now I've forgotten what I wanted to say. I think it had something to do with me remembering that a year ago this week, I was beginning my stay at the colony in Eureka Springs.

Yeah, that sounds about right. I'll have to come back when I have time to ruminate on my time there in greater detail.

Things I like about Eureka Springs.

The slower pace.
Laughing at people visiting Christ of the Ozarks.
Eating Chalupas on Monday nights.
Karaoke domination.
Uninterrupted time for nothing but reading and writing.
Enjoying the company and conversation of talented writers.
Walking up and down steep hills.
Healthworks.
Cindy's cooking.
Deer.
Small lizards.
Friendly locals.
Caribe.
Walking tours.
More uninterrupted time for writing.
PoetLuck Open Mics.
The haunted hotel at the top of the hill.
The Iris Room.

I know there's more, but I just wanted to rattle off a few, since I still don't have time for a full-blown entry. I know I have a return trip to look forward to in October, but I don't know if I'm gonna last that long.
