It's been forever...

And it seems the drift life has all but vanished from my day to day reality. Life has taken it's turns, abruptly and alarmingly so for me, and I find myself without a car, without a direction, and without any real purpose. On top of that all, I'm no longer up in the Seattle area, which means I can no longer chill with my homies or do anything I used to love to do.

I know I'm the only person who reads this blog, I'm not even sure Devin does anymore. but man.... Life is a cruel thing. the whole "coming of age" really means the beginning of the end. It's hard to keep it in perspective and try to remember that I'm blessed with more than many; even the gift of life on this earth is more than I deserve, and some poor children and lost souls have never made it to their 21st birthdays, which I just had a month ago. Still I find myself ever more bitter that things have turned out this way, trying to stay positive without a direction or sense of purpose or place of belonging seems and feels impossible to me.

I guess it truly is the story of a lonely drifter....
