I was on the phone a couple days ago with my friend Hayden. After hearing about my plan to continue up to San Francisco, he predicted that within a year I would be living “somewhere posh”. I doubt it. I really just love living in this RV, and can’t imagine circumstances that would make me…

I gave raw food a try a while back for somewhere around forty five days. I bought a dehydrator, made a lot of my own foods, and bought the rest from the Whole Foods raw bar. In the end, I didn’t stick with it. Here’s why: It’s monumentally inconvenient. It’s really easy to eat apples,…

San Francisco has been calling to me. Maybe it’s the fact that the temperature rarely goes above seventy or below fifty, which makes it perfect for RV living. Or maybe it’s the fact that all of the smart young techies have congregated there. Maybe it’s the cheap(ish) flights to Japan or the abundance of healthy…

The other day I signed up for a 10 day meditation class/retreat/experience. Way back when I was in LA a friend of mine raved about this particular practice, Vipassana. I meant to go, but ten days was a lot to spare and I didn’t get around to it. Since then I think of doing it…

  If there’s something I’m known for amongst friends and acquaintances, it’s that I tend to do things to extremes. I can’t just do speed dating, I have to work my way to the top of the pickup food chain. Instead of moving in to a smaller house, or even a big RV, I buy…

I got a last minute email from one of the guys in the Austin Society, a local pick up group, saying that a speaker had canceled and they were looking for someone to fill in. Awesome. I love public speaking and have actually been meaning to do more of it (in fact, I’m thinking about…

I had a smug outlook on life. I was twenty years old and other than my ineptitude with women, things were good. I had my own house and enough money that I never thought about whether or not I could afford something. I was making my money gambling, which I considered to be quite an…

I picked my RV up from the dealership. My axle was reportedly broken, and, as far as I could tell, it was now fixed. Good. The cost was over a thousand bucks, money which I forked over, wishing the whole time I didn’t have to. A few weeks prior I was at an airport, desperate…

During the past two weeks I’ve waffled back and forth on whether or not to continue to posting daily. Half the time I think it’s a great idea, and the other half I’m checking the calendar to see how many more days of this bedtime-extending hell I have left. Some pros and cons for the…
