Heading Up North to the Land of the Pines

This is just a short note to say that I will be absent for two+ weeks. I'm going to the woods. I won't have any Internet connection, and my phone service will be spotty at best. I'll miss you, my friends!
I will climb a mountain and thank someone for my life.
I will jump stark naked into a freezing pool of water in the shadowed woods.
I will play music for children, and paint, and run for the sheer joy of it.
I will abandon fluorescence.
If I get eaten by a bear, please send flowers. (Just send them here, because that's where I'll be. In the belly of the bear. In the great gulf, remembering everything, owing nothing.)
