last shots.

slim it down and get over the others. a three solid months in DC was better than I could have predicted. But once the sparkle and flare died down, I realized it's still the same. Transient and apathetic. Faceless and ambivalent. Selfish and histrionic. Small picture people. Some people are still in high school, and some, well, I guess they never leave.

I am not proud of my regression back into this social circle. So I dig and scratch and move from side to side and it gets me nowhere...

...until I realize I can just go up and over it.

So there are the handful of people whom I care about seeing on a day to day basis and another handful of people who live hundreds or thousands of miles away most of the year anyway, in which case distance isn't much of a problem. Outside of that, I'm good.

Back to Baltimore in a month. Until then...

Montreal.
Northwest.
Philadelphia.
Nashville.
[insert location].
