All Things Wolven
Well, went to the Doctor today, been dealing with intermittent pains for about a month now and was finally able to have it looked at. Much to my relief, it looks like it's nothing serious, just an infection caused by riding my bike too much. Some anti-biotics and a move to a more comfortable bike seat should clear it up. In other news, grabbed a PS3 since they're down to 500 dollars until August, no real good games for it yet, but the thing makes a great up-converting DVD player.
Been giving a lot of thought to the subject of dreams lately. Not actual dreams really, more like, grand motivating ambitions. Specifically, I'm been trying to determine what things I would like to accomplish in my lifetime. Well, after thinking about it for a good long while, I've come up with a bit of a list.
I would like to bike around North America, I'm thinking the toughest part of this is going to be going through Canada actually, theres a lot of Bear Cubs that run out to the roads in Northern Canada, and with their mother not far behind, being on a bicycle is going to be more than a little dangerous. What I'd REALLY like to do is to peddle around the world, but unfortunately getting over the ocean in a paddle-boat seems almost impossible at the moment.
I would also like to build a cabin in one of the more remote areas of Alaska. I'd prefer it to be on a lake, and I would not want it so remote that I would never have company during the summer, but I would absolutely LOVE to have a place I could go to, to get away from the world at large.
Finally, as a lesser dream, I would like to learn martial arts. Not a martial arts master or anything like that, but I would like to be competent and capable of defending myself against most threats with just my hands.
Okay, I guess those sorts of dreams may seem a bit silly to many of you people, but, I cannot help it, the idea of riding around the world, or claiming a quiet corner of the world of my own is just, so darn appealing! Anyhow, would love to hear from you all, so if you feel like say, sharing some of your dreams, feel free to do so, I'm all ears, really. :)
