"If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on now
'Cause there's too many places I've got to see...
...And this bird you can not change.
Lord knows I can't change."
Allen Collins, Ronnie Van Zant
I was driving to work yesterday (thinking, thinking) and, blessedly, Lynyrd Skynyrd came on my radio. Wanderlust is tugging me, pushing me, sending me to places as yet unknown.
I'll give in to it. I always do. I haven't started collecting moving boxes - not yet. To put it off a bit, I have another E ticket in my inbox and a voucher that’s good until May of this year. That soothes me some. A little.
I wish I knew what it is I'm seeking. In the meantime, I'll crank up the volume and sing at the top of my lungs while I drive. Soothing comes in different ways on different days.

An attempt to pull it all together in one place. Let's see how long this lasts.
About Me
- Michelle
- Houston, Texas
- Kansan transplanted to Texas. I started distance running in my 40's and ran my first marathon at 52. I started collecting running injuries and decided it's no longer the hobby for me. Writing and photography provide escape from the escape that running was supposed to be.
