It’s finally happening. In two weeks I will be leaving my bum job and trip-trapping off to Putnam county, NY to grow vegetables on a little family farm.
I can’t wait!

I can’t wait!
I gained a few pounds but weight gain is reversible, while emphysema is not.
I did some serious soul-searching in the first couple months because I’d found that, after smoking since I was twelve, my whole image and ideas about Coolness were all tangled up with smoking and I had to find a way to rework that. But that was an awesome residual effect. (and it helps with another one of my Things: Stop Trying To Be Cool)
It was my birthday, it was 4AM, it seemed like a great idea at the time. For a while I had a Chelsea but that got old, and I quickly discovered that I am not cute enough to pull off the pixie thing successfully. Took two years to grow it out until it felt normal again.
Which does NOT mean that you shouldn’t do it. Anyways, come to think of it…. I don’t think I would take it back if I had the chance.
