I'm going to Hawaii...in 7 days! Woohoo...I'm very excited.
Aaaaah...it feels good to go on a little moto ride. Something I feel completely comfortable and competent to do.
SCUBA diving is fun but I still am not sure that I fully comprehend all the crap I need to keep track of and all that. Basically, I still feel a bit dumb even though I've had quite a bit of training by now.

I'm back from the emergency room and I don't have an embolism but I was probably experiencing some level of decompression sickness. Thank goodness I didn't have to go to the hyperbaric chamber.

first step (pun intended) is to find your peroneus longus:

and have your ol' man or somebody run their thumb up and down the fucker with some pressure until it stops hurting like hell (and it sure will if your ankle is weak believe, you, me). that alone will make a hell of a difference if you can live through it

How are you healing? I hope quickly. Is your bike straightened out yet? I'm wishing you a string of great luck, like finding a winning Powerball ticket on the sidewalk.

Some days you should just not have gotten out of bed.
Second ride with all the new parts on my moto and I fall down and go boom again on the side that was just repaired. %$!@$#% & !@#@!#*% I was none too happy about that.
The brand new faring got scraped up but didn't crack so that was good. I hadn't put the blinker...

I dropped my new bike in deep sand at martha's vineyard. No damage i can see, but what a pisser.
I now stay far far away from dirt/sand roads with my moto. I gotta get a dualsport for such outings - where's that Aprilia dealer when you need 'em?

We got to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium for 4th of July. That place is even cooler when there's hardly anyone there. Instead of watching fireworks we walked around and looked at the fishies and absolutely no one was in there.
We saw a tank that we had thought only had 1 octopus in it, but there were actually three and they were all...

Yah, moto is all fixed. I even got to ride it around a bit yesterday. Weeee, I love my moto.
We got our research diving assignment yesterday. Flop and I get to research metridium, which are pretty (usually) white but come in some other colors too anemone that have a stalk and fluffy top, they look like an underwater flower. Cool.

anemones gotta eat!
I feel bad that they have to just wait for food.
anyways-
I dont dive, the critters I see live mostly in tidepools on the oregon coast.
I think I'd have a panic attack if I dove.
I would try snorkeling though.

Have fun in Hawaii. It'd be great if you could rent a bike and tour around Kauai or the big island. I've heard both are wonderful.
