I am leaving Atlanta in less than 2 weeks headng back to Texas then off to Mokpo South Korea for a year or so to teach English. It will be interesting as I know I will be the only white guy in the province with a purple suit & gators.

Well, I shaved, both my head and my face. I look like I did for some of my time in the monastery, except for the extra 75 lbs. Looking in the mirror I see the blatant need to drop 55lbs of bad weight and put on 15lbs of good. I also realize that I am also no longer buidt like a heroin junky.

All of the things that could go wrong have, and yet I still live. It has been "an interesting time. "

I am drinking a bottle of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey that is dated 1978, it is a wonderful thing, that old school candy style with a smoothness of a maser distiller, that is sadly no longer made. It is a touch of the best...

I celebrated my first day of unemployment with a cuban cigar and some 10 year old scotch... ok so it is child abuse but I didn't buy it.

In just over two weeks it will be my birthday. The issue I have is most of those close enough to me to realize how odd it is that I am still alive are all over 800 miles away, or so caught up in their own lives that throwing a party that goes past 2 am would cause them confusion. I have thought of returning...

I have realized that my CFO is having what we used to call "senior moments." That is what we called them in my family when I was growing up, the little episodes that show the early stages of senile dementia, or Alzheimer's. The beautiful thing is he is unaware of it as is his family.
