Twice in as many days. Yes, I know. It's been a while since I've regularly blogged, but it was something that a very good friend of mine told me that got me started up again. You see, my young friend James wanted to know my story, and it got me thinking about the various blogs, podcasts, and other media that I have produced in the last several years. I've said it many times before in this blog, and I'll probably end up saying it several times to come -- I'm starting to feel time catch up with me. It was probably the fact that my young friend James is now a college freshman, instead of the clingy four-year-old that I remember so well. I know I've influenced him throughout the years, but I think he might greatly underestimate his impact on me as well.
With another day remaining on my vacation, I've decided to review a lot of the material that I've written over the years. I'm beginning to wonder what I was thinking with some of these strange adventures on the road. I often wonder if anyone would ever believe that this stuff really did happen. Truth can be a lot stranger than fiction, and a lot of the stuff that I've been through does seem to be a proof point. Everyone has a story, and I never thought that mine was an interesting Indiana Jones-style adventure. However, it did appear that I have had my share of mystery, intrigue, and pure strangeness over the years. If I did have a lot of time on my hands, I might put everything back together and write my story, just for the fun of it.
But the story isn't over yet. Even after all of the adventure, and all of the "fun" on the road, you always have to come back to do the paperwork. In my case, it's coming home to a lot of mail and catching up on the standard household responsibilities. Yes, it's back to the daily grind, and it has absolutely nothing to do with coffee. See ya.
