Overcast out this morning, went for a walk to clear my head before another round of job applications.
Passed the ballfield near my place and the foul lines were freshly chalked, that bright white against all the grey. Nobody out there yet, just the chalk and the clouds and the rooftops behind the trees.
Stood there for maybe 4 minutes not doing anything. I’ve been so deep in resumes and cover letters this week that I forgot what it’s like to look at something plain and not think about it.
Back to the job hunt now but that little stretch actually helped.
