Man, what a day! I woke up in Solcava, and let me tell ya, it was a rollercoaster. First off, the sun was shining like it was trying to blind me. I mean, c'mon, I just wanted to sip my coffee in peace. But nah, the universe had other plans.
So, I hit up the local café on Trg svobode. Best coffee in town, no joke. I ordered my usual—double espresso, extra shot of “I need to wake up.” While I was waiting, I noticed this cute little doggo outside. It was just chillin’, and I thought, “Man, I wish I could be that dog.” No worries, no deadlines, just living the dream.
Then, bam! My phone buzzes. It’s my boss. Ugh. He’s like, “We need that report ASAP!” I’m like, “Dude, I’m in Solcava, not a corporate jungle!” But whatever, I’m a pro. I downed my coffee and headed to the library on Cesta na Korošico.
The library is this cozy spot, right? But today, it was packed. I swear, it felt like a concert. I couldn’t find a single table. I finally squeezed into a corner, and just as I was about to dive into my work, this kid next to me starts blasting music from his phone. Like, really? I’m trying to focus here!
I shot him a look, and he just shrugged. Kids these days, man. So, I put on my headphones and tried to drown him out. But then, the Wi-Fi decided to take a vacation. Seriously? I was ready to throw my laptop out the window.
After an hour of frustration, I finally got my act together. I finished the report, and I was feeling pretty good. I stepped outside, and the fresh air hit me like a wave. Solcava is beautiful, with the Savinja River flowing by and the mountains in the background. I took a deep breath and thought, “Okay, maybe today isn’t so bad.”
But then, I decided to take a stroll down the main street, and guess what? There was a street fair! Food stalls everywhere, music blasting, people dancing. I was like a kid in a candy store. I grabbed a kranjska klobasa (best sausage ever) and just savored it. Life was good again.
But then, outta nowhere, it started pouring. I mean, like, torrential downpour. I was soaked in seconds. I ducked into a shop on Ulica 1. maja, and the owner was super chill. He offered me a towel and a shot of rakija. I was like, “Why not?”
So, there I was, drying off and sipping rakija, chatting with the locals. They were hilarious! One guy was telling me about the time he tried to climb Mount Ojstrica and ended up lost for hours. I laughed so hard, I almost spilled my drink.
After the rain stopped, I decided to head back home. But as I walked along the river, I saw this amazing sunset. The sky was all pink and orange, reflecting off the water. It was one of those moments that just hits you, ya know? I pulled out my phone to snap a pic, but my battery was dead. Classic.
Finally, I made it back to my place, exhausted but happy. I plopped down on my couch, thinking about the day. Solcava, man. It’s got its quirks, but it’s home. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
So yeah, that was my day. Full of ups and downs, but mostly just a reminder that life’s a wild ride. And I’m here for it.
