May 2012

One of the things propelling me was a threat by my mother to sign me into a mental institution.

I ran all the way to Boston, a town that's known for its tolerance of crazy leftist atheists, and I found out it was them, not me, all along.

The geographical cure usually doesn't work since we drag our problems along with us. It did work for me, mostly because I found out the problems didn't lie with me.
