hello, from michigan to the world

i'm visiting some friends up in grand rapids. came up early evening yesterday. it's been pretty good for the most part. too good i guess. i mean i guess it really doesn't take much to cause me to doubt my lot in life, but well... I can't seem to get out of this ridiculous funk of social ineptitude and unmovitated living. i need to run away. i'm half-way there as it is.

now when i felt the familiar restless hatred begin to rise at the stupidity and ugliness of this sight, i bade myself look directly at some streaky rock cut and said to myself, thundered to myself, "Think!" - Annie Dillard
