Okay, ugh ugh ugh. I am in my own personal hell and can't even post an entry. So this is my therapy for the day: post an entry. Try not to make it sound suicidal. Form complete sentences. Go on, you can do it

It is! You will totally recharge, relax, have fun and get good sleep that will set you right up for a new charge at the Battlements of Employment.

Also, Stefan says that the whole switch-in-the-head thing is just a myth.

I'm not sure I'd take Stefan's word on anything, you know.

I feel that a change of scenery will invigorate me. I need to stop saying I can't possibly do this or that, and make it happen because travel makes me feel alive. It's not like I would ever PREFER to stay at the Ritz if you know what I mean.

I *did* once stay at the Ritz (won a raffle) and it wasn't really all that.

When I used to go on business trips, I would sit down with a copy of the local freebie paper the Yellow Pages, and the bus map, and scope out tours of second-hand bookstores, thrift shops, and yard sales, so I got to explore lots of obscure neighborhoods.

Of course the prevailing opinion is that I'm kind of whimsical in the brainpan.

I'm totally down with that method. I usually just pick one bus or subway line and ride all the way to the end and just walk around to see where regular people actually live. I especially love visiting hardware stores in foreign countries.

This trip is made of whimsy, actually. I love hardware stores, book stores, random bus and tube rides... hopefully I'll be off the beaten track a bit.
