I tell you what, though. I wouldn't be half this knackered if I hadn't gotten so dang addicted to going and doing in every random corner of the country. We have so many wonderful places and people here, from the homemade truck nuts of Texas to the gluten-free toasters of Oregon to the ukulele-enhanced worship services of Ohio and the feral beach-chickens of Hawaii.
It probably shouldn't be surprising that we have such trouble feeling like one united nation sometimes. And silly as it sounds, I really feel like we would treat each other so much more kindly, if only everyone had the luxury of visiting their thousand-mile neighbors on the regular.
But don't
despair, guys. I'm gonna make those mega-millions any day now, and when I
do, I'm handing everyone a fat check so that you can quit all that
awful day-jobbing business and come romance the open road too. And we
will love this country whole again, from sea to shining sea.
