I just finished "A Pirate Looks at Fifty" by Jimmy Buffett. Not that I'm such a Buffett fan, but someone said I might find a few parallels with my own life. Yeaaahhh... Diving, sailing, flying (yes I have a seaplane rating!), Panama, Costa Rica, Colombia, Fredrick Church... OK, so I'm not an obsessed fisherman, I've never lived on St. Barts, and I don't have a...

Me too although I think she rebuked the naked part and the dancing Ive heard no before; it usually doesnt stop me from asking againusually I prevail.
Maybe once we start pouring the Martinis she would be more likely to consent. Make mine really Dirty.

They rocked. and it was LOUD! 
They rocked
. and it was LOUD! - Well, the girl finally dropped me for good. My stomach hurts and I feel like I'm stuck in molasses. It was, of course, the right decision. She's looking for a life partner, and thinks it might be me. I'm looking too, but I don't think it's her. Doesn't really make sense for either of us to postpone the inevitable. But it was a comfortable...

Awww, that sucks. Even if it was the right decision, it's never fun/easy. So sorry.

Just checkin' in on you --- it's been a while.
- Talking sailing makes me miss it... But then again so does talking about flying, diving, biking... Too many expensive hobbies, and not enough time or money. No wonder people are suckered into buying lottery tickets! Europeans have the right idea: six weeks of paid vacation ~ WOOT ~ !

See, I have to live aboard or else I COULDN'T afford it. But now my other hobbies are too expensive... hoping to buy the equipment to make it less expensive.

Sometimes I wish my dating life wasnt so interesting! Yeah, Id go back to Belize in a heartbeat. Its not supposed to be a high risk malaria place, but I suppose it only takes one mosquito . . .
And I know what you mean about expensive hobbies . . . I keep trying to figure out ways to maximize the amount of horseback riding I do with the least amount of $$. Paying to ride once a week puts a dent in the budget. And yet I want to ride more!

When do I finish school? Officially my last exam is Feb 28 but I don't actually walk thru ceremonies until March 11th. (Honestly, I think my parents are more excited about this whole thing than I am! 
) However, I'm not finished teaching until mid April. If normal life doesn't start up by that time, just check me into the rubber room.
Wearing three hats is getting old...

It's a winter wonderland again! Maybe I should take the kayak off the roof, and put the ski rack on this time... It's been fun being a kayaking icebreaker though! What do you think?

Go on! Live dangerously! I say load up the ski rack and get busy freezing to death. May many hot buttered rums await you.

It's been snowing like a banshee here in old Denver town! Terribly frigid! My webbed feet have begun to develop a layer of perma-frost!
In answer to your question: Back in Sept., I picked up stakes and moved from Portland, OR. to Denver, CO. (My beau lives in Denco.) Been a bit of an adjustment, needless to say. Homesickness waxes and wanes.
Like the moon...

Hope yours was an enjoyable one! (Or at least relatively painless!)
Ingested way too much chocolate, myself. Let the fasting begin!
