Vacuosity

Far, far away

Julia and I have always kicked around the idea of moving away; far away. This weekend was the first time that we talked about it seriously.

There are so many places that I've never been. Do you know that I have never been west of Windsor, in Canada, at least that I know of? That's pathetic! I'm 28 years old and I've barely been out of my own province. I've never seen the Rockies, the Grand Canyon, or Old Faithful. I've never been in the Arctic circle, hell, I've never been north of the tree line. If I ever saw the statue of Liberty, I don't remember it, and I have yet to visit Disneyland or Disneyworld.

I've been on a plane only three times in my life. I've never seen a whale or a dolphin in its natural habitat. And I haven't even started on real travelling, as in Europe, Africa, Australia, and every other continent I've never been to. I want to climb Mt. Everest. I want to visit the Louvre. I want to box a kangaroo. I want to eat chinese food, that is, food from China.

I can't, at least not right now. But I can move. And we may.
