run away

A county sign showing escape routes from a house in case of tsunami or other flood-type event read: "PLAN YOUR ESCAPE." But instead of educating me, it just made me think of all the things you could plan to escape from. I have made a list. Forgive me.

PLAN YOUR ESCAPE! from:

- cardboard boxes (possibly the type that contain refrigerators)

- conversations that are
a. tedious
b. too personal
c. insulting
d. interesting

- Celtic music

- knotted up aprons
a. straight from the drying machine
b. shoved into a drawer
c. in a plastic bag (as was mine this morning)

- too small shirt sleeves
a.(this list is drawn from personal experiences)
b.(painful personal experiences)
c.(as you can tell)

- wedding photos

- all photos

- strangers with judgmental eyes

- tourist traffic

- enslavement

- Cormac McCarthy novels
a. THE CROSSING!!!!!!! ANYONE? HOLY LORDY.

- sugar high

- commitments

- ambiguous decisions

- current situations

- coffee shops with "bad atmosphere"

- phrases like "good energy"

  1. Yes, ALL PHOTOS!

    I'm afraid of strangers with judgmental eyes.
