Tomorrow

Jul 13, 2009 10:14

Is the day that Chrissy, Corey, and I leave. We're hopping out of the train yard and headed to Montgomery, and then Birmingham. I think we're going through Memphis or Nashville...I'm not entirely sure. I don't know the directions or where the trains go because I've never done this before, but Lord have mercy I am so excited. I can't wait to head up north it is waaaay too fucking hot here. I am not, however, excited about cigarette prices. Ahh well, they are a luxury I suppose. I can't believe that I am actually doing this, that the time has actually come for me to leave. It all sounds so backwards to some people, but I seriously cannot wait to be homeless, and a vagabond. I cannot wait to see what it's like to have nothing except what I can fit in my pack on my back. I cannot wait to sleep under the stars, then having to wake up from a deep slumber to chase after a freight train to take me to where ever it is I want to go. I take so many things in my life for granted, especially money, and it's going to be a real eye opener when I'm living this lifestyle with absolutely nothing. I really truly believe you can't appreciate the true value of anything unless you have nothing at all. That's mostly what my journey is about. That, reinventing myself, seeing different states and towns, meeting new people, and drinking with those new people! I really need to get a camera a.s.a.p.

Tomorrow I chase freight trains with my best friend.
Tomorrow is going to be the day that changes the rest of my life.
