Photo of the Week

O.K., so I didn't get to everything I wanted to do this week. I didn't post about The Sting yet (I promise it's coming), but I finally ironed out the trip details with my cousins and everything's booked. I don't really feel ready for either the trip or for school to start, but at least I got to see my new school in depth a little more yesterday.

I did get around to returning a jacket I ordered but didn't like. It was a few days ago, the first day after all the rainy days. I had to go up to the mall near where I used to work in a previous life, but it was an easy in and out. When I got back to the car, I noticed a leaf was sitting on the rear windshield. I approached it to pluck it off and toss it to the ground, but a closer look at it made me stop.




It looked like a heart. Was it a valentine from God? Or was Nature apologizing for dumping so much rain on my car? Whatever it was, it made me happy for some strange reason, so I snapped a photo of it on my phone and left the leaf to be worn off by the elements. It stayed on another couple days, I think, until I noticed yesterday after getting back from school that just a faint residue in the same shape remained.

I'd be more than happy to see it again another time.
