Mermaids and shit

Hey everyone. It's Monday night. Monday nights in the latter half of the year are my chill nights. So it's blog time.

First off, the song Enough is Enough by Avicii is the song of angels. Holy shit. Art.

The lake this weekend was a huge success. Everything I said about wanting there to be a swim up bar at the lake was cool and shit; but real talk, this weekend was clutch enough as it was. It was the best moments of day drinking ever. So glad my favorite people could join me in the trip.

I wish I lived in the ocean. In fact, I wish everything lived in the ocean. Like there was no land on planet Earth. It was like the planet of Europa covered in water and there was only an ecosystem deep in our oceans. And humans were all just mermaids and shit that have developed the same way just underwater and were friends with fish and shit. I say this for a couple of reasons.

One, I'm convinced I was some sort of fish in a past life. Between having frequent, vivid, and awesome dreams of having the ability to breath underwater; feeling perfectly relaxed underwater; and having talent in the ability to swim; I'm close to certain my genetics have some fish in it somehow. Like I was cross-bred with a dolphin.

Two, the oceans are the least explored place on the surface of Earth, making it fascinating by nature. If we were all mermaids and shit we would have the ability to explore endlessly as much as we wanted. Imagine not being bound by interstates and road signs, but instead being completely free to explore your world in three dimensions. On land we're able to divide our planet up, because of barbed wire fence and "No Trespassing" laws we aren't really able to explore much anymore (not as much as I would like to anyway). It's impossible to go out into the woods and find something no one else has yet seen. If we lived in the ocean the sense of exploration would be one like none other into the world we currently live in. It would be fascinating.

It's almost mind boggling to think about the vastness of the ocean. Looking at a globe, the ocean is very very big. And almost none of it is explored. It really makes me want to grab a scuba tank, take a dive, and check out what's down there.

But I can't. I'm left to explore land instead. And even though it may not be as fascinating or outlandish as exploring reefs for the rest of my life, I can live with it. And luckily with my career field I'll get to see quite a bit of it. Until next time...
