DirtyDan's Riviera

I've been pretty bummed lately and not really motivated to do anything. So much is on my mind, work is so busy I hardly have any time to think. I'm a simple man and the fast paced rush of this life is getting to me. My thoughts are cluttered and I can't seem to relax... I'm in one of those "sell everything" phases. I think I need a break from everything. I need a break from reality. Maybe a long drive would cure this. I find myself fantasizing about driving off into the desert at sunset on a bad frisco style chopper all day long, with nothing but a sleeping bag, some food, matches and some good homegrown. Ahhhhhhhhhh. Fuck everything and everyone, just me, freedom, the open road and escape.

Last week I sold my daily driver and my '63 Impala, Montezuma's Revenge. That has really eased my mind. I feel better already.

I've been trying to convince myself that I should snap out of this and keep my '63 Riviera and start working on it again. It's been on the backburner too long and I think it's time to step up or sell it

Its sitting in my grandmothers garage and I think I might take some time to pull it out this weekend and start getting the ball rolling. I'll take her for a spin and hopefully put myself at ease.

Dirtydan's Riv has been my inspiration this week.
