Yeah, I remember reading this post. It was the one that inspired me to shamelessly sing my big-city-blues in last week's QOTW. I just wanted to say how much I can relate to it: the escapist practices, such as videos and cannabis are certainly there, as well as the physical activity (or lack thereof). As far as meditation is concerned... it's there, it's coming, or conversely I'm going towards it. So, no worries about your venting. If anything, I appreciated the excuse of doing the same.
