\"20130222-092710.jpg\"<\/a>It’s funny, when I created all of them last year I though “dang it’s going to take forever for these to be used up. I hope they don’t bore people.” <\/p>\n

Yet here we are, they’re done and I don’t really have a good idea about what to use to replace them, or even if they should be replaced.<\/p>\n

It’s been weird, the last few weeks, I’ve been less & less interested in doing anything. I feel really bored and yet I should be pushing hard on a couple of fronts.<\/p>\n

It’s like my drive has left me and even succeeding at things like securing insurance brings me no satisfaction.<\/p>\n

Arguably, obtaining insurance should have made me feel better because it represented a victory against what I had come to feel was an unfair system. <\/p>\n

The system is still unfair and it should be burned down and replaced with something that is more fair. Obamacare is not the replacement I think is appropriate but that’s another story all together.<\/p>\n

I’m sorta thinking that I’ve been cooped up in the house too much and that’s given me a real bad case of cabin fever.<\/p>\n

The problem is that with gas prices soaring I don’t really want to drive anywhere that I don’t have to. I guess it’s going to come down to me deciding that driving someplace to assuage the cabin fever is a “necessary” trip.<\/p>\n

Spring and Fall are my two favorite times of year I should be getting happy about the coming Spring. Yet I’m feeling disconnected about it.<\/p>\n

I suppose I should bite the bullet, pay for the gas and shake off the late Winter blues with a couple of short day trips. Changing the view might help.<\/p>\n
