Yeah, I know. I wasn't going to make too much of that, but I nearly had a case of wanderlust kick in as I typed out that scenario. But then, I'm comfortable living out of a tent or a boat anyway.

And in fact, I'm looking at tonight's storm forecast (6-10 inches of new snow in the Twin Cities, 25-35 mph winds) and thinking about tomorrow morning's snarled commute to my cubicle far away in another galaxy. A few seasons' worth of tides, beach scavenging and painting in salt air might be just the kind of character-building experience I need to sign on for. Maybe even meet a real Irish mermaid who'll be my Muse.

As the travel folks say, you won't know if you don't go.
