It's a good time to travel in California since gas prices are low. But when I discussed the options of traveling with friends, I put it to them this way: What am I gonna do? Write another story about a town I've already visited which will still cost me around $100 in gas? It's cheaper to stay home and work.
The trouble with that philosophy is that you can easily burn. I lost an entire day of work yesterday just playing. I went to Corona del Mar and wandered around Inspiration Point, the beach below in the cove where they've filmed lots of movies, and discovered it's now the climbers' favorite to prepare for the big trips.
I didn't sit down at the computer till after 11 p.m. and felt really frustrated, knowing there's so much to do. But I had such a great day. Sure you can work yourself to death. But when you do, you're dead sooner and for what?
