- For me, the urge comes out of this big time resentment of the fact that I have
- to carry around all these little bits of metal so I can get into the office,
- safeguard all my stuff in the apartment, open my mail box and get my bills out,
- and all this trivial crap. I feel like if I really were above the little
- annoyances of my life, I would be able to just huck my keys off the Walnut
- Street bridge and it wouldn't matter. Of course, I'm not that bold, and I
- wind up just feeling kind of weak about it.
-
- Weird, so many people trying to lose their keys...
