Why do fools fall in love..?
echos myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?

Y tu que has hecho?
Preacher was a talkin' there's a sermon he gave,
He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved,
You cannot depend on it to be your guide
When it's you who must keep it satisfied

Yes! I am in Tierra del Fuego. Yesterday was lovely, but it's been snowing all day today. On the plus side, it feels like Xmas morning. Except not anymore, because it's dark out.

Doesn't it feel utterly brilliant to announce 'I am in Tierra del Fuego'? If only I could... I must get there at some point.

I'm excited enough just by the thought that I'm being read in Tierra del Fuego!

Is that where there's volcanos and stuff, it would be cool to hike down into one.

Um, I don't think there are volcanos here, but I could be wrong. I haven't come across any tours offering that package, or I'd take it. Right now all I want is a silboat ride through the Beagle Channel, is that so wrong? Do I not deserve that? What have I done? Why is the weather so dreadful? All I want to do (after Internet) is curl up with a cup of hot chocolate and my new Julian Barnes book...

You deserve it you deserve it. Just becasue it's exotic it doesn't mean that it's pretentious or phony or anything like on those reality survivor shows.

Just do wet. Nothing like getting all wet and messy hair and rain down your cleavage on an adventurous boat ride with strangers.

That may be true, and I've never let a little precipitation interfere with my precipitation, but they cancel the boat tours when the weather is nasty!

I've hired my own small row boats on a river. My friend would bring his own outdoor motor and we'd fish and stop the boat and snorkle.

I've hired my own large commercial aircraft to take the boy and me to Washington DC tomorrow. Okay, really just two seats on said aircraft.

The i got even hungrier, and made another toasted ham, cheese and tomato sandwich and had another coffee. Then I started watching Stanley Kubrick's Lolita while eating easter eggs.
