SoConfounded

Changes to my professional life have left me considerably more flexibility. So, now I find my mind wondering about wandering.

I'm strongly considering an open ended trip around the US and/or Canada by car. As in, just start driving and see what happens. No schedule. No committments to be somewhere. Though, I'd love to, and likely will, have some planned but unscheduled stops or visits along the way. Anyone taken trips like this? Anyone want to chat with the potential for a visit during my travels? I'm currently open to ideas. Well, I always am. But, you get my point.  

My profile lacks much substance. So, I thought I'd share an occasional thought here.

I have been termed an Epically Overenthusiastic Optimist which I do not deny. In what seems to be a period of my life where I've lost many of my tethers, I choose to look at the world of possibility instead of doubt. Though choose isn't exactly the correct word. It's simply how I'm wired. Sure, there's that little voice in the back of my head saying "You should probably be more concerned" (or "AAAHHHH" when I've had too much caffiene). But, the majority of my grey matter continues to dominate what rattles around up there with "Everything will work out. It always does".  

Perhaps unfortunately, it means that I rarely pay any attention to geography when looking here. I do travel often. But, really, I'm much more interested in the right match and everything else can be figured out. The obvoius question then is to define the right match. Unfortunately, that's harder to define. I can't list out a bunch of stuff that I want or expect. That's not me. It's the connection and trust required for my submission (or ownership) to really work. If that's there, what I want would be fairly irrelevant anyway. 

My location currently says CO. But, I travel a fair amount. I'm partial to, and most frequently in, NY, CO, VA, and WA. Though, I'll go virutually anywhere, particularly overseas, given a good reason. Most of my travel these days is either work-related or to visit with a friend. I rarely go anywhere JUST for tourist type reasons anymore. Though I'm searching for a new homebase too. So, I may start going to more places with that in mind.
