Just Close Your Eyes and Point

Sometimes, when it gets too much--all the lights, the noise, the constant attention--she disappears.

She drives to the airport and points at the departures board at random.

She just needs to get away for a while. Disappear under the radar of the media. Ideally pop up in a small town where no one has heard her name or her voice.

It's never for long--just a month or so to get her back up on her feet--but it's well-deserved and well-spent.

She stands in front of the departures board at Logan International and points.

And that's how she ends up in Amsterdam.
