That is the order of the day. I'm headed back down to Los Angeles today. I need to pick up my pills, check the mail, call some friends, call the hall, get gas, and get on the road.

And I don't want to.

I've spent the last month on the road. And it's of my own volition mind you, I have noone to blame but myself for the series of events that are currently taking place. I chose to quit Gallo for health reasons. I chose to return to the waterfront. I chose the part time jobs that will bridge the income gap during the slow season on the docks. And I am Grateful that I have the opportunities that I have in LA.

But I don't want to leave today.

I've only spent five days with my wife in the last four weeks. I miss her terribly. I miss our apartment. I miss our friends here already. I miss our cats. And DAMMIT if it isn't the nicest weather we've had in months right now. Perfectly blue skies, no heavy wind, no pollen, and about 80 degrees. I'm forced to remember a comment I wrote to Pook when she was in her final days before returning to LA from back east. It's the town's way of saying 'Hey, it was nice to have you here. I know you have to go, but here's a nice few days for you to remember how good it can be here. Come back and say hi whenever you want'

So, I'm procrastinating, because I really don't feel like leaving.

I will, because this is the path we've chosen, but I'm certainly in no hurry today.
