It's funny how tiny, insignificant events can trigger strong emotional reactions. Today on the way out the door for work, I happened to glimpse on the kitchen table the US road atlas that I study obsessively. This atlas reminded me of my desire to just get in the car and drive to all kinds of places I've never been, and that reminded me that I can't do this because I'm shackled (however temporarily) to a job I don't really like in an overgrown town I hate working for someone who values routine just for routine's sake.
As you might imagine, focusing on work today is kind of tough.
