Peace out Sin City!
Bored and on spring break, I decided to flee the city of sex, gambling, and drinking, for a short and unplanned trip to San Francisco, aka Gay Mecca.
I've been here for about two days, and so far, I'm having a pretty good time. I've been to the California Academy of Science, China Town, some great stores, Japantown (big surprise haha), the Asian Museum of Art, and a few other places. I also got an amazing massage and have met some pretty cool people. (I've also met some pretty rude people which I had to school about proper museum and aquarium etiquette, but that's a whole other post haha)
My trip however has been oddly without the drinking, partying, and clubbing that usually fills 20-something trips out of town. Sigh…I'm so old beyond my age. haha
Anyway, as I was eating sushi and reading my People magazine during lunch today at this wonderful Japanese restaurant, I though to myself: How great it is to be able to just pick up and go on vacation; to be able to follow my whims and dreams with no attachments or restrictions; to know that I have made a difference, and will continue to create change. I felt so truly blessed and fortunate to have exactly the life I want.
Yet as a sit here in a luxurious hotel on yet another vacation with limitless options ahead and an impending move abroad, I somehow find myself yearning for attachments and limitations to ground me. Am I living life, or am I escaping? Am I being brave and adventurous, or am I just lonely?
Hmmm…
Deep thoughts: far too deep to contemplate while on vacation…I think I'll watch Harry Potter on TV instead.
Peace
