I wish that I could fly. Up to the sky. So very high. Just like a dragonfly. I’d fly above the trees. Over the seas. In all degrees. To anywhere I please.
Oh. I want to get away. I want to fly away. In my DeLorean. I’ll be having fun. Cars I will out-run. Please forgive my pun.
But at any rate. I want to tempt my fate. Then I’ll pick a date. And I’ll drive 88.


When I was in Florida and living within the confines of the Hampton Inn, I was always on time. I flossed and brushed twice a day. I went to bed at a decent hour.
The hotel room was immaculate. I was aware of every item in there that was mine. As it stands right now, my house is full of junk. I have to refer back to
something I said last year in my blog about ”if I am not using something, I probably don’t need it.” It is hard to get rid of my baggage. I think I can
name the most important elements that I’d like to save in case of disaster. My piano. My dog. My clothes. My cars. My CDs (both audio and computer backups).
My pictures. I think that’s it? That’s 6 things. I hope that day never comes, but it is interesting to entertain the idea of only having a few things to
keep track of one day. In truth, I doubt it will ever happen. Storage is just TOO convenient, and it beats the hell out of just having your memories of things.
To actually still have something from the past and to touch it. There’s a connection that you can’t lose. That’s why people go to old buildings or to movie
locations or famous landmarks. Those are places that we are all aware of. We have memories of them, but to actually touch them makes it more personal.
Even more interesting is being able to touch a celebrity. True, they are still just another person. But the media has gone out of its way to introduce you to
them and give you information about them. Would it be weird if we were all celebrities? All you had to do to find out about someone you’d just met was
to look for their fan site on the internet. A few celebrities that I have touched (shaken hands with) include:
George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, Rachel Hunter, and Oliver North. I’ve also spoken to Bill Murray. I’ve seen a ton more in real life, but didn’t really interact.
See? If you’re not collecting momentos and other junk, you’re collecting memories. You only live once, though, so you might as well do as much as possible
while you’re here, right? Now, please
excuse me while I go touch my high school yearbook and my Batman costume.
