YOU WILL KNOW IT WHEN YOU READ IT BECAUSE YOU WILL HEAR THE SOUND OF YOUR MIND
SHATTERING.
YES, IT IS THAT GOOD.
No, seriously. It is. Its basically someone giving a name to my patron gods, and not too bad a face either.
And now is my time to get philisophical, so I suggest you just skim through this. This is just me putting thoughts to internet.
I have always loved travelling. I have always loved being the drifter, the one with no roots, no ties, outside the margin, beyond what you consider your world. If I see myself growing up to be something good, its in the caravan of merchents with a Winnebago and a trailer, drifing from one flea market to another faire. Its in the vagabond that makes money as they go, no ties, no address, no fucking phone number for all the world to find you. Its following the seasons, visiting places and people that you have never seen before, and may never again. Its something new every day, something scary, something that no one can take away. Its the rolling scenery, the wide open, empty highway, the grunge of sleeping in your car and washing your hair in a public restroom sink. Its brooding over a cup of diner coffee, in no hurry to be anywhere, because you have no one claiming your time, your presence.
I have always hated affluence. I hate having money just sitting there, doing nothing except weighing on your mind. I hate the idea of designer clothes that you only wear once, jewels you leave in a vault, cars you drive just to look good. I hate going to faires, circuses, markets, because I always feel like I am on the wrong side of the table. I shouldnt be browsing through earrings, I should be back there helping unload the truck.
I had a taste of that a few years ago, and while I hated the cause, the sense of being outside looking in was perhaps the best in the world. I was below notice for most everyone, and I didnt care.
I pretty much figure that if I was ever stuck in an office situation, I would crack from the monotiny of it all. Thats one of the reasons I started dying my hair all sorts of colors, piercing my own ears, splattering paint on my walls and clothes. To have some change, something new and different. The same, but not.
Unfortunatly, the only occupations I can think of that would accomidate that lifestyle is that of a trucker, or running away to join the circus. And Cirque de Soleil has pretty much ruined the classic circus for those who actually have bones, so thats ruled out.
Theres always being homeless...
Anyway, I have found my dieties. The Gods of the Highway. Bring it.
