Road Trip

One of the appeals of the old fashioned road trip is, of course, the temporary illusion of being able to outrun whatever is wrong in your ordinary life. . . . or maybe just to abandon and outrun ordinary life itself for a little while.

That's what I'm feeling right now. I have a day and a half of work left, then a dentist appointment, and then I start driving, and I keep going for more than 400 miles. The fact that a significant spiritual transition will be part of the journey is a profound part of the appeal, but right now I'd be happy just to be going.

On the road. By myself. Long, long trip.

I'm ready.
