I’ve been so tired lately… mentally worn out. I just want to go. Go…. somewhere… anywhere. Get out. I’m becoming obsessed. The goal of this vacation is a little shining star of hope. My only concern is getting the finances together to make it happen soon enough. It’s not that I’d implode or anything, but I want to step outside of everything, and shake loose this weary feeling.

Don’t get me wrong. I love my job. I love my home. I love my beasts. I just feel like I need to take a break and get away from things. Just… not worry, and not have to do… anything each day for a couple weeks. I’ve got two national parks, a friend, and a father to see, and that’s it. No real plans beyond traversing the space between those points, and making it home, within two weeks.

All I have to do is figure out what the “bare essentials” I need to stay “safe” are, then figure out how to afford them. The process itself is quite intriguing and gives me something different and new to focus on. “Do I really need a top-case?… Should I really spend over $300 on good new tires for the trip? How much later would I have to leave if I do?”
