That's what I do at every age.

Talk to people about how you aren't sure if you exist?

Well, not in the specifics.  That's a pretty stupid position to take.  But the point is I might argue about it as if it mattered more than the average bowel movement.

 VISION QUEST to the WEST has entered an extremely drift-y phase.

I have EXHAUSTED my WELCOME in DESERET, and found Oregon a little UNPLEASANT although parts of it were QUAINT


I am now turning east back to the lands of the homeplace- extremely transient and subject to change but I intend to at some point or another arrive in INDEPENDENCE, MISSOURI

Also I think I am getting a lot better at the VISION QUEST, nothing will EVER BE THE SAME

I was foolish to grow discontented with the South, but it was necessary that I leave my beloved home to realize its greatness

I wish to compose a tragic piece in which Deseret applies for statehood into the Confederacy but prejudices on both sides leads to disaster

Also I have given it contemplation, and the state best suited for settlement by JAPANESE COLONISTS is NORTH CAROLINA, and I will store this idea for later

I'd like to thank languish for being OUTSTANDING, but I regret I am much too busy to be on a computer much- I am keeping a written journal which will eventually find its way here, but it is sort of sparse as well, making log only of wonderful encounters such as the hobbit from north carolina or derek the dark one and so on.

What happened in Utah?  People annoyed with your weird musings?  And yeah, we all told you that going to the West coast wasn't going to fix your problems.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Why is Lettow writing in Victorian style?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

He always does.  Nobody knows why.

Not always.  That post is an egregious example, though.

I think you meant to say:

Good, my warning worked, now we can go back to being ourselves.

 The VISION QUEST has come to an agreeable end. Or rather, is coming to an end; I have yet to return to Tennessee, although I intend to do so shortly.

There was significant improvement! Interesting people were met, a plan was drawn up for the next year, and life is happier than it was on the departing. More importantly, the foundation for a stable and happy existence has been lain.

Also, the dakimakura is on its way.

Did you or did you not buy a bike in the end?

 No, no. Biking is actually a lot less viable for wandering around the west than might have been previously expected. And Salt Lake City has never heard of bike rental. (In fact, bike rental might be a mark against a city's character. File it under the subversive traits column)

Expenses were pretty light, though. Lighter, I think, than if I got a bike. And I saw a lot of places!

I can't imagine living in any of them. Tennessee is home, even if I didn't know anyone there.
