Look out! It’s your boring life! Your depressing job! Your annoying chores!

Has life got you down? Do you ever look out your window wishing you could be somewhere different, doing something else, as someone new?

Well then, this is the place for you. The Mental Houdini is a blog dedicated to helping you escape the doldrums of life.

Escapism is defined as a way of avoiding an unpleasant or boring life by using a variety of methods.

In this blog, I will document my attempts at using common methods, as well as coming up with a few of my own. Some you might see here are: reading, writing, music, video games, cooking, role-playing, travel, and anything else we may discover along the way.

So join me, and together we can free our minds.
