The Obvious Answer

So, what does one do when one quits one’s job but still has one day before heading out to walk 2,663 miles?

Well…go to my first rave, obviously.

Skrillex was a great show.  We were twenty years older than pretty much everyone there.  And we were actually wearing clothing, unlike all the young ‘uns running around.  And I had both ear plugs and ear muffs on to protect me from the loud music.  And I didn’t feel old for one second.

We plowed through the crowd of pulsing, half-naked twenty-somethings until we were nearly at the stage.  I wore my Wonder Woman Onesie, did the one-hand-in-the-air jumping thing that everyone around me was doing, and I felt so, so happy.

Feelin’ the music

Sweaty, exhausted, and beaming, we went to Awful-Awful and waited half an hour for a basket of fries, and then Ubered it home.

‘What a great send-off’ I thought, as I peeled off my Wonder Woman Onesie and slipped into my soft jammie-jams.

I love my life.
