My relationship with reality, it comes and goes

I had an excellent two weeks off. I will not be posting some rundown of the events as I don’t want people to think ill of me. All I think needs to be said is that I contributed very little to society other than lining the pockets of large corporations over the past 20 some days. I am not even certain that dumping money on big business is adding anything to society. It probably isn’t.

One thing I did have over the past few weeks was ample down time to do fun things like assess my position in the world. The only real conclusion I managed to force out was that I would probably hate myself forever if I never took some time to go travelling. Not even travelling really, just living in Scotland. So the only real decision I have now is if I should ride out the rest of this CA gig and get some letters behind my name or just try and save up enough money to jump ship comfortably. Chances are that the timing of the two of these will coincide so hopefully I don’t have to make any real decisions. I hate those.

(As a side note that is probably one of those things I mention that make people slightly uncomfortable, I just had a conversation with my parents and actually told the truth. I can’t remember the last time that has happened. I guess it is not that I lie to them, we just sort of don’t talk about anything. I need to grow up.)

That is almost it for now. The Fjords are coming on August 4th and playing at Broken City. If no one comes with I will still have a first-rate time, but you will hate yourselves for missing such an awesome show. Also, Jon may be in town then. It will be a celebration.

Peace.
