Lonesome Tides (Saturday, March 31)

I went out by myself. I needed to think. I needed to hear myself think. I thought I was going to Target. To browse CD's and jewelry and purses and scarves that I don't need and can't afford, but when I pulled into the parking lot and saw how packed it was (Saturday afternoon, drizzly day - duh) I realized this didn't make any sense.

I sat in my car for a few minutes and watched people come out with huge bags of stuff. We are minutes from a beach. And this is where people are spending their time (and money).

I started my car and drove there instead.

I could hear myself think. But my head mostly thought "What am I supposed to think?" Sometimes I feel really lost.

The ocean was a good choice though.
