It's been a dream of mine to totally out of the blue, without any planning, to get in my car and JUST DRIVE. anywhere. aimlessly. On an on, until I was done, until I landed somewhere. I did it once before, NY to LA, alone, though it was somewhat planned, and involved a boy. Yet that drive was perhaps the most peaceful time in my life. Once I arrived, of course, it became a different story... But, as I'm sure you know, you can't leave emotional baggage behind, nor can you erase memories (without some serious ECT treatment, of course). As they say, "wherever you go, there you are." I've moved around enough (every 2 years or so) to know that this is the incontestable truth. It's just not possible to run away. All I have is a moped right now, and I don't think that it's going to get me very far. If I had a car, I’D DO THAT IN A SECOND.
