I am committed to going to New Jersey for three weeks starting next Monday, acting like nothing's up, but I just have to face it that continuing on this path is – it's not unbearable, it's not pointless – it's simply not what I want. Which is interesting since that inherently conflicts with moment-to-moment . . . wants.
There may be a fundamental flaw in my metaphysical thesis that I may have to work the kinks out of.
I'm swinging from vine to vine. This N.J. trip is another vine.
But I told work that I'm not coming back after I come back to Taiwan. I want at least a two month break. So I effectively gave notice. I've set something in motion. I don't think I can tolerate listlessly going day-to-day in this isolation. So I'll see if there's some other vine after I get back.
