Day 336: Disappear

"Don't you sometimes wish you could start all over again? How difficult would it be just to walk away from your life, and begin afresh somewhere else? Test the waters by spending the day on the run from your friends, family, and colleagues."

Since I have a job that I'd much rather keep than lose, I don't think I could disappear from work for a day and not have it be a big deal. Plus that fact that I'm rather enjoying the way my life is now and I don't think it would be all that easy just to walk away from. Things are going well for the moment, so let's leave them that way.

Day 335: Become a Master of Wine

"Why remain a philistine when you could enjoy your drink more and impress society with you savoir-vivre."

I already have a pretty great appreciation for good wines. I was probably a little bit spoiled in Italy, but I still enjoy a good glass every now and then. While I didn't the luxury of a full tasting with notes and whatnot, I did enjoy a nice glass of wine after my shift at work and boy, did I need it.

Day 334

"Send roses to your long-suffering mother."


There we go, that should do the trick.

Day 332: Tonight, Date Yourself


"As Oscar Wilde noted, to love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance. You know you're special, and you deserve to be treated as such. Who better to cater to your every need but yourself? So today, come home early, run yourself a bubble bath, crack open a bottle of champagne, and treat yourself to a candlelit dinner where no one will bore you with selfish talk of themselves. And if the evening is successful, may we suggest you retire to the bedroom. Who know, you might get lucky..."

Unfortunately I had to work all night, so I gave myself a rain check. How sad is it that I have to cancel a date with myself?

Day 331

"Hitchhiking has had a bad rap in the past, but it is one of the better solutions to the environmental pollution problems posed by cars, and a great way of generating a sense of community as well. Follow our guidelines to ensure safe and peaceable hitchhiking and hit the road."

In my driving today, I didn't see anybody hitching so I didn't get to pick anyone up and it was also way too cold out for me to unnecessarily hitchhike anywhere.

Day 330

"Today, kiss someone where they have never been kissed before."

Today I kissed my girlfriend on the elbow. As awkward as the act itself was, asking to do so was even more so.
