so I am a fan of travel, that is nothing new....however I have had the first hints of not wanting to travel. I am 6 days in to my 10 day trip (Vegas --> Cali). While the places are fun I just want to be home. Something about your couch, your toilet, your TV - your friends.
It has something to do with being alone. It is good and all, but I have had some moments I just wish someone was near me.(took me an hour to find a parking spot at this one coffee shop - i stuck it out to find crappy coffee and expensive internet - i spent 5 minutes there, ergh - i somehow think it would have been fun if someone was with me)
I have used an analogy at work lately related to technology, so I will change it some so it can apply - - If I had no friends, none, I would never have drama, never get hurt, always get my way, the toilet seat would always be down in my house (what you get when you shared a BR with your sis growing up), etc.
Flip side - I would never listen, never get comforted or listened to, i would not be able to give, I would be completely self seeking, rome solo all of the time, laugh little, experience less, have no witnesses, no freedom.
away from home.

Not to read too much into this, but interesting what Seth Godin recently posted on his blog: http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2007/06/everyone_is_lon.html
Coincidence?
Even the most intrepid traveler will eventually wish he hadn't gone to Hell.
Come back soon.
glad I can be a part of your life, leaving the toilet seat up for you buddy! :)
i was wondering where the passion went. now i know. i'm glad you are home. i am near you.
