my good friend alayna took this picture of me beneath the half moon in berkeley, california during one of our walks last year. she sent it to me last sunday on the night of the full moon

i was here in portland cat-sitting my nephew bilbo . . . i saw the full moon through the fog above the city. being here is making me feel a little sad on account of i once spent a long sad year here, and am reminded of that year. on friday i take a bus up to seattle to see jackson, and then i’ll drive to vancouver to see cera in her natural habitat before heading back down to oakland to spend christmas with the mccunes~
