Hello, it's me

Hello world.

My goodness, it seems life just keeps getting stranger.  "Isn't it strange to be anything at all?"  I suppose that's why I'm starting this blog.  I'm a fan of eccentricities and peculiar habits.  Life is made up of this stuff, and most everything else is just pretending to be something you're not.  Weirdness is what makes You You.  Embrace it.  Go ahead and shout out poetry while running, go ahead and swim with all your clothes on, go ahead and climb up on a rooftop or sneak into an abandoned building.  Make drunken phone calls, make paper clip sculptures, dance however you want because none of it is going to matter.  Tell someone you like them just to tell them, and help yourself to a free breakfast at the hotel down the street.

Abandon long scheduled plans, live life according to no plan except whatever comes your way and see where it takes you.  Go by foot, and soon nothing becomes too far away, too inconvenient, too spontaneous.  Your feet have no rules of the road, but rather they are not meant for a road.  They are meant for wandering, pursuing the hunt, nomadic living.  Become the peregrinator.  Go somewhere you've never been.  Tomorrow.  Today.  Now.

Maybe all this is bullshit.  But then again, everything feels like bullshit and this seems better than anything else.  Right now, everything is all up in the air for me.  But I've been up in the air the whole time, just floating along.
