a few things i want to do/see. i want to see the guggenheim museum in bilbao, spain. i want to watch "seven samurai" and "rashomon" by the great japanese director, akira kurosawa. i want to read alice in wonderland. i want to jump off a semi-high cliff into the water. maybe. i want to get super rip roaring drunk and do crazy things that i won't remember the next day. i will, at some point in my life, skinny dip in the ocean. on some deserted beach, by myself (with possibly one other person doing it concurrently at a different beach), with no clothes on. thus, the skinny part. i've been inspired by the recent naked excesses of a friend and i think about the thrill of walking into pounding waves fully free and unencumbered. i'll tell you how it goes when it happens. maybe we can have a group freedom session if this first experience goes well. why run naked if you can swim naked?
