rout with the cleaning crew

you know what doesn't need to happen on a wednesday afternoon?
leaf blowing.

the harsh buzz of it's electric motor seems to drown out all happy thoughts previously swirling inside your head and replaces them with the dull pain of a headache. every time. for me, patches of leaves laying delicately on the sidewalk, clustered along the edge of a brick wall, or nestled beneath the tree from which it fell is a calming scene. a fallen leaf signifies the turn of the summer season into autumn to which we greet with open arms and cowl neck sweaters. there's no need for all this blowing-around drama. upsetting the natural flow of things;
dang, anything else?
