The plan goes something like this:

Step 1: Sell car. (Check.)
Step 2: Buy car with towing capability. (Check.)
Step 3: Freak out and wonder if this is a good idea. (Check.)
Step 4: Have crappy laptop you just bought a month ago stop taking a charge. Call tech support and cry when you are told to mail the laptop to Texas and wait for its return 7-10 days later–3-6 days after you’d planned to leave Seattle. (Check.)
Step 5: Buy travel trailer. (This is an updated plan, since motorhomes are apparently unsafe for potential projectiles, like dogs, and their targets, us. Eventual.)
Step 6: Download WordPress app and use iPhone to update blog while in-house tech support, also known as my wife, tries to fix computer. (In progress.)
Step 7: Wonder what the Universe is trying to tell you, or if the Universe has any interest in your petty concerns, or if it has any knowledge of electronics, or if it even is capable of knowledge or consciousness. (Ongoing.)
Step 8: Remind yourself that it’s nearing 11 p.m., and you might as well think about all of it tomorrow.
Step 9: Stop writing and sleep.
