Last night, on the tail end of my northbound west coast road trip, my GPS took me off of the 101 at Octavia Boulevard. It was a stupid move that tacked on an extra fifteen minutes of traffic to my already lengthy duration in my rental car. It was pitch black and I was on city roads I didn't know. I was annoyed. I wanted to arrive at my destination. I swore at my stupid phone for being misleading and the guy behind me who was honking at me to turn (there are cars coming!) and then I turned and I was going up, up, up. And then I stopped. And I drove down, down, down. And then I stopped. And then I giggled like a six year old. San Francisco is among my favorite cities. I love it's fun, windy streets. I love the fog. I love daydreaming about living in the apartments I pass as I'm waiting at stoplights. But if you ask me what my favorite part about San Francisco is, my answer would most certainly, undoubtedly, be that I get to hang out with
this girl. And why do I love Camilla so much? Because we can sit around and chat for hours without getting tired of it. Because she gets me. Because she makes killer pizza and keeps her fridge stocked with pumpkin beer. Because we have a mutual appreciation for the art of relaxation and
winging it. Put simply, she's awesome - what's not to love?
So that'll be my day today: soaking up lots of
Camilla time and winging it in
one of my favorite cities.
And really, what better way to celebrate the launch of
the Fall issue of the Violet?
