2012
Year of less stupid shit and more of what I really want to do.
Move to stupid cheap rental house around here. Take deliberate trips to certain parts of the country. Pick the best place and move there next January.
I hate this part of Florida. Everyone is self-obsessed and socially retarded. There is nothing that I would a call a music scene.

weird dream
Had an intense dream where I was in a huge castle that shared a lot of similarities with Walmart. I was with some rowdy person who convinced me to try and escape. We were caught and sentenced to execution. The top of the castle building was flooded with about 5 feet of water that all executees waded through and lined up against the wall. You could choose to stand under a part where a giant blade...

dream
I had this dream that lasted for most of the night where I was in India and came across a tea stand where a monkey would serve you. It was like chai tea x1000, super good. There was an assortment of fancy brass cookware and I watched as the monkey brewed some syrup-like tea, added fresh cream and a mix of spice and dehydrated fruit. My parents were there and found this all to be disturbing and...

All of the obstacles, fears, irritations and otherwise negative aspects of your life are very important. They are not something to be eradicated, ignored or dissolved in some way. They are what you throw a saddle on top of and ride until exhaustion. These things are what carry you, often painfully, into a more complete experience of being alive.
You should never reduce a person to a generalization.

Oh my god
There is something to this whole body/food pH thing. I don’t know if alkalinity is necessarily the answer, but holy crap I need to know more about all of this.
Stop buying things from giant shitty companies. Make your own stuff and ride a bike or something. This would accomplish more than an unorganized protest, I think. There are people camping out in tents they bought from walmart…

If most modern Christians were to meet Jesus, they would write him off as some sort of new age hippy and tell him to get a job. Or call him a terrorist.
