Well as usual, I'm not dead yet. I am, however, lazy. I did do a blog over at my My Space page. I may have been under the influence of the good Captain at the time. But it still holds true none the less.
Lately I've just gotten a particularly severe pang of wanderlust. I just want to go somewhere, and be away for a while. Somewhere far away. Farther than a drive. Sadly, this of all years, I won't get to go anywhere far. So I'll have to make due with the overwhelming sameness of my surroundings.
I think I get these feelings because I'm still running away. Running from everything that holds me back. Mainly my past, my present, my responsibilities. I suppose we all feel like that from time to time. I just feel so imprisoned, going to work, coming home, watching tv, sleeping, going to work, coming home, watching tv, sleeping in perpetuity. I'm not made for this, I seek adventure. I want to boldly go where no one has gone before, etc.. But, I can't.
The fact of the matter is that life doesn't really exist. Travel is expensive, and dangerous. Even if I won a major lottery, I bet something else will prevent me from pursuing my own interests.
Right now its especially hard. Many people I know are either already on, about to, or will be traveling soon to their own adventure. I am insanely jealous. I'll see the pictures soon, all the places I wish I could have gone. Where will I go? lol, I'll be lucky to get anywhere farther away than Omaha.
Oh, well. I stay sane though. Mrs. Kimpak is, as always, the light of my life. I definitely picked the right girl.
