I get happy sometimes when I take walks. My best walk ever was one night in art school when my roommate was REALLY getting on my nerves, and there was nowhere to go in the house to just be alone. It was pouring out... thunderstorm. I grabbed my walkman and just left. I walked for about two hours through streets no one was even driving through, soaking wet, listening to Gamma Ray's "Man on a Mission" and Helloween's "Eagle Fly Free". I don't think I've ever felt so much like I could just take off into the sky and armwrestle Thor. Big smile, practically yelling along to the lyrics. I didn't even care that I got lost. I've been walking recently (same music in my discman) and it's just a fantastic experience. Positive but aggressive music about freedom and overcoming tyranny on a dark road in New England early fall weather, thinking about plot developments for my story hour. That's nice. No wife or kids to smile at me, but sometimes I don't mind.</blockquote>
