i visited SF once, when I was still extremely naïve and hasn’t traveled much. Someone in orange monk clothes handed this to me when I was walking around. And then he extended a bucket which was meant for donations(?) I’m still unsure. I dug into my pocket, and was embarrassed to only have a nickel. He sighed and gave me some sort of blessing after. i Think I’ve only gotten a nickel’s worth of lifetime peace. I wish I had more in my pocket. whenever I look at it, I feel a strange mix of excitement, which I felt traveling in a big city solo, cringe at my naivety, and guilt that I didn’t offer him more. so I keep it around, because it’s a strange jumble of emotions and I like to dissect the meaning.

* Fortune card
* Virgin Mary that belonged to my grandmother
* Weird capless acorn I keep in the pocket of my princess coat (where I come from acorns are pretty uncommon so I was very excited when I found it years and years ago and it’s stayed in that pocket ever since, even after moving across the country)
* A skipping stone
* Baby Benny tag
* Leather turquoise and copper bracelet I got in Austin when I was 19 on that one trip

i came to visit my aunt who just moved to boise from california and i‘ve enjoyed it here. i was concerned i wouldn’t enjoy it but i’ve been to some cool places such as flick’s movie theater, slick rock cafe for great matcha, record exchange which is a record store with a cafe and photo booth that takes awesome picture, the downtown library where i checked out some books and made a origami frog, and the flea market at the bsu stadium parking lot which had a great selection of clothes and antiques. i leave thursday morning and i can say i’ve had an amazing trip so if you live in boise or find yourself out here these are things i would recommend. first pic is a flea market find, second is flick’s inside their collection of dvds you can rent, third are my library books and frog origami.
