So I have the kind of job everybody wants when they hit their midlife crisis. I work on boats, at a marina, on the beautiful Maine coast. Outside all summer long, blah, blah ,blah. It’s a young persons game. I want to be able to enjoy the summer ,instead of busting my ass helping other people enjoy the summer. I want to do something spiritually meaningful, I want to work with emotionally mature humans, I want to create, I want my work to not be location dependent.

writing out

Maybe nobody reads my blog, maybe I don’t even keep it up on a regular basis, but suddenly I am writing in a public forum. I start paying attention to my style, my voice, my subject matter. I start writing out in other public forums. No longer do I want to be a writer, now I am a writer, because I write.

It was the weaning off the cigs. I was starting to experience nicotine wd as I was cutting back. So I just quit. Two weeks later, almost to the day, BAM! slept like a baby. Yeah…
