					<description><![CDATA[This morning I hiked out to Laurel Falls, and on the drive out to the trailhead I stopped for gas. As usual, I was going to fill the truck up, but as I was pumping gas I thought &#8220;No, wait. You&#8217;re not going to use a whole tank of gas before you leave here!&#8221; So &#8230; <a href="https://monkeywrenchyourlife.com/2023/10/11/fill-er-up-no-wait-dont/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "Fill &#8216;Er up!

					<description><![CDATA[Have I complained on this blog about the sorry state of pizza in most of the United States? Maybe not. But it is a sorry mess. Having grown up in Connecticut, halfway between New York and Boston, and 20 minutes from Wooster Street in New Haven, I thought everybody had access to great pizza.

					<description><![CDATA[Okay, this&#8217;ll be a short one. It&#8217;s 2023 already, what the heck happened to 2022? A lot happened in 2022. At the same time, not much happened in 2022. I tried to settle down here in northeast Tennessee. I rented an apartment. I bought some furniture. I traded in the AdventureMobile on a travel trailer. &#8230; <a href="https://monkeywrenchyourlife.com/2023/01/02/its-2023-already/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "It&#8217;s 2023 Already?"</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In my last post, back in September, I talked about my yearning to settle down. As it turns out, that wasn&#8217;t just idle talk.  I&#8217;ve slowly come to realize my discontent with nomadic life comes from a pretty deep-seated loneliness. As a deeply introverted person, it takes me a very long time to make friends. &#8230; <a href="https://monkeywrenchyourlife.com/2022/01/01/new-year-new-life/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "New Year, New Life?"</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When people ask me where I&#8217;m from I have several answers I might give depending on the context, and sometimes just my mood. I might say &#8220;Wherever I am, that&#8217;s where I&#8217;m from,&#8221; which is my I&#8217;m-a-full-time-vagabond-free-from-the-confines-of-everyday-life answer.

					<description><![CDATA[Monkeywrench your life. What does that mean? According to Merriam-Webster, a Monkey Wrench is: 1: a wrench with one fixed and one adjustable jaw at right angles to a straight handle 2: something that disrupts  It&#8217;s the second definition I have in mind; something that disrupts. And yes, I know it&#8217;s weird that I write monkeywrench as &#8230; <a href="https://monkeywrenchyourlife.com/2018/07/03/monkeywrench-your-life/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "Monkeywrench Your Life?"</span></a>]]></description>
