Escape the Okie Zone

this a personal creative non-fiction journal about a traveler and his evolving life. He saw the waning warmth of humans through his puppy's eyes and now he see the world through his child's eyes. He thought much of our country's warmth went dormant when Bush held our country hostage! Some of my hostile readers suffering from overinflated egos might actually think that I might be writing about them on this blog! Get a life please ;)

I was reading this other blog , Prosperityblogspot.com about Post AVATAR DEPRESSION ....
folks get depressed because they cannot live up to this fantasy in the movie... I haven't seen it yet
but my wife is really looking forward to it with the sky high movie prices in Oz!! $21.00!!
the prices in this country could easily depress any family or at least put an American family into an economic depression...

when I was stuck in the Arkie Zone with the in laws, and I was playing musical bedrooms,
the only thing to do was flip the channel for something interesting
or most of the time suffer through what the relatives wanted to watch or go outside
into the below freezing weather for some fresh air and maybe be be brave enough to risk frostbite bicycling rather than suffer more cabin fever in close proximity with folks that seemed to only apreciate our charismatic Colin (unlike his parents who overstayed their welcome long before Thanksgiving)... I would often dream about being here in Oz swimming in the surf and playing with Colin...now the fantasy has become reality, but there's always something to rain on our parade... even when living in paradise, realize that shit still happens...
but it sure is nice dealing with life's crap when you are looking out onto a beautiful ocean!
