i think my furnace has a small gas leak. i can smell it and it's giving me a headache. it was left on low all day and my cats are still alive, so that's a good sign. i may just be paranoid, but i turned if off just in case. warmth is wonderful but i'll take the cold over carbon monoxide poisoning.
someone almost ran me off the road today. i knew the guy saw me. he just had a bigger car and bullied his way in. traffic. smog. rude, rude people. cement. noise. lack of stars. why am i still here? i've had a wonderful desire to sell most everything i own and move to a working ranch. i'll break in the horses and bring cattle down to the lower fields and spend the evenings watching the stars come out, with dust on my boots and the smell of sage in my hair. what's holding me back?
i'm so discontent lately. i'm hungry for a change. ready for an adventure.
the idea of traveling back to zimbabwe in late spring/early summer is getting stronger and stronger. regina and i were e-mailing back and forth about it today. i want to take a month off work so i can not only help her out in vic falls, but take some time to travel. there's even a possibility of visiting the coast of mozambique. wouldn't that be wonderful?!
two songs i can't get enough of right now:
-brand new day by van morrison
-the love you save by joe tex

“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!” - Jack Kerouac
“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls." - Mother Teresa
