Home again... I'm home from my trip. The sad thing is that I don't want to be here; I didn't want to leave. Maybe I'm just getting burnt out on the left coast, and SoCal/OC/LA in general. Maybe it's because the whole time I was there complete strangers were polite and friendly and I never heard a single gunshot (five minutes after I got home I could hear small arms fire coming from a mile or so away). Maybe it's because I found a damn fine reason for wanting to stay. It's nice to have my Mac and DSL line, but there are more important things in life and I guess I prefer being in someone else's world to being in my own. It's funny, usually I can't wait to get home after a vacation. Now I can't wait to go back.

Cheeseheads I went to Wisconsin for party while I was up at my sisters place in Illinois. What the fuck is up with all the Herringbone necklaces? That has to be the second strangest thing I have seen (fireflies being the first). People wear those silly ass necklaces like status rankings or something, sort of like ancient tribal peoples. Apparently the bigger the necklace the higher your status. I kid you not. I felt like an anthropologist, visiting a strange tribe for the first time. It was a very different culture. Nothing to be afraid of unless they start swapping hunting stories, then it's best to get while the getting is good, least you be bored to death, unless you're into that sort of thing... The coolest thing about going to Cheesehead land was that I finally got to see a shit load of fireflies outside. They were all over. It was one of the strangest and most beautiful things I have ever seen.
