national geographic

Today is a day for thinking about travel. For thinking beyond myself, my empty wallet, my rusty car. For looking up hostels in Barcelona, just for fun. For googling maps of Northern Canada, and for thinking about untamed wilderness. For wanting to walk all day and come home exhausted. For wanting to see things.

It's because I feel cooped up in my office/storage closet. There are no windows. I think I need at least one window, or to at least have access to a window. Even a dreary parking lot would look better than the plain white walls or the stack of boxes containing files from 1992 and last year's Christmas decorations.

Obviously, I've been unproductive at work.

I feel the same way. Except that my office is actually a board room, and is filled with a large roll of corugated cardboard and yellowpages from remote northern locations. I also looked up hiking in the NWT.
