Taking a fishing hiatus...

[MuskieBait]

I am going to try going cold turkey...but it will be extremely difficult.

Meeting Alice just reveal a side of me that had long been forgotten and buried. I've been so fishing crazy in the past few years that much of who I am and what I loved to do was put aside for the sake of fishing. I just want to have some fun with other things again and live while I'm still young. The fish will always be there...but my clock is always ticking.

Alice was 12 years younger than me...she's just finding her way and she has a lot of dreams, hope and a huge sense of adventure...meanwhile, being stuck with this graduate degree has squashed a lot of dream, hope and imagination for me...just waking up everyday dreading another difficult and failed experiment...it's not a life to live...I need to do something else to reignite my passion again (aside from fishing)...I need to look for something new.

Sometimes things happen in the weirdest way.
