I woke up around 5 am this morning. Last night, I couldn't sleep. I was so wound up that sleep didn't matter. When I closed my eyes, I was back out on the plains where the pronghorn were everywhere, and I'd wake up to check the time, just to see when my dream would come true.

If there's anything I struggle to write, it's my daily life. I know that sounds strange. How hard is it to describe daily life? Well, for me, it's very hard. Almost every other time I've tried describing my life using words, people have gotten very confused. Some think I literally have to wear 60 pounds of gear every morning and evening. Others have thought I have to vape to survive, which they question, and then it ends up confusing both of us because we're on two completely different topics. Whatever it is, there's always a lot of confusion when I try putting my daily life into words, and it's a brick wall I hope to break through one day.

I caught my first bull snake when I was seven years old. I don't really know where I was or what I was doing, but the look of horror on my mom's face is branded into my mind. The snake wasn't aggressive. He was fat and sunning himself. I remember picking him up by the end of his tail with one hand, and with a finger from my other hand, I slowly moved up his back, careful to not rub his scales the wrong way. I found the base of his head, and then pinched his mouth shut. I couldn't hold him straight because he was so long. That's as far back as I remember, but my mom said I bragged about it, and then let him go in a field near the path.

As much as I hate politics, my involvement in them in inevitable. I took a long and much needed break from the political world, but now that I'm getting near the voting age, I've been pressured by many people in my life to get involved again.
I don't expect to necessarily change minds or opinions. This is just how I see it. I will present a few facts here and there, which is what I base my opinions on. But, this is just how I see it, and I hope everyone can keep an open mind.

Note: Since I spent Saturday sleeping and taking pills, I've gotten a lot better. I'm still not 100% sure what was really wrong with me, but I'm glad to be almost completely better. To celebrate, my dad picked me up and we decided to go up to the mountains again, and drive up Cascade Creek as far as the Xtrerra could go. We expected it to be rough, but we didn't expect it to be dangerous.
