Always carry pistols and pens

Wow, I just realized that it's Saturday, or rather, Sunday now. Tomorrow will mark a week being in D.C. with two more to go I think. Anyways, D.C. has been good to me. I've been, in a sense, relaxing. I know that it was a good change up from L.A.

Looking back on alot now, I've realized that I came to a heavy low some time ago, and the cynisism and negativity it bred into me was actually truth. All the good things that happened to me while I was taking a break was not only actually bad for me, it was enough for me to regret coming back to L.A. I came and broke all of my own rules, and it kicked me in the ass pretty fucking quickly.

I know now that I do not know a place to call home and I honestly don't care.
I know what my responsibility is not only to myself, but to my family.
I know that my responsibility ends with me.
I know what it is I have to accomplish.
I know I have to leave this country.
I know being content is not in my nature nor is it in my future.
I know what it's going to take to be happy.
I know I'm going to drive myself crazy.

So far with little Van

So today is Van's three week birthday. We took him out on a walk for the first time.
