“There are so many hammocks to catch you if you fall,
so many laws to keep you from experience.
All these cities I have been in the last few weeks make me fully understand the cozy,
stifling state in which most people pass through life.
I don't want to pass through life like a smooth plane ride.
All you do is get to breathe and copulate and finally die.
I don't want to go with the smooth skin and the calm brow.
I hope I end up a blithering idiot cursing the sun -
hallucinating, screaming, giving obscene and inane lectures on street corners and public parks.
People will walk by and say, "Look at that drooling idiot. What a basket case."
I will turn and say to them
"It is you who are the basket case. For every moment you hated your job,
cursed your wife and sold yourself to a dream that you didn't even conceive.
For the times your soul screamed yes and you said no. For all of that.
For your self-torture, I see the glowing eyes of the sun! The air talks to me! I am at all times!"
And maybe, the passers by will drop a coin into my cup.”
-Henry Rollins

So I'm home. Finally. After roughly a month of being outdoors.
It was alright I guess, too much family though...or step family. Too much crappy weather. Too much time in the back of a cramped car without a roof on the highway.
But I'm one kitty richer. His name is Nugget, he's wee and pretty hilarious.
Soon it's back to work and all that jazz...not to mention registering for some makeup math classes (failure here I come).
I may be moving again soon. I don't think we're going to renew our lease on this apartment, the landlords are slimey bastards and that's not cool. We might even be renting a house or something.
On the way home from the big long vacation we took a detour through Nelson BC and it reminded me of how much I want to move there and it reminded me of how much I wanted to go to the art school out there. It makes me nervous because I have two things that I really want to do...and I don't want to make the wrong choice and end up hating what I'm doing with my life.
BC is a weird province, totally different from anywhere else in Canada, it has some of the weirdest little towns and cities.
Once I get some of the picutres from the trip I'll post them and write more.
But until then, adios.
