The trip is the point......

So if you're like me you like to travel. You like to plan a trip, anticipate a trip, coordinate where and when you'll stay, for how long and most importantly, you like the getting there and being there.

Here I am, it's been a year since my last decent trip and where the hell should I go? Greece? Which island? Isla de Margarita? Will that be boring? Phuket?...I think we know what misgivings might be there...but that's really not a reason...so, what about Mauritius? Always wanted to go, but it's a hike and at most I've got a solid two weeks (including travel time)...so...? Africa...don't know if I'm ready for that yet...too deep. Plus...not so much into nature to be really turned on by the less involved version.

Oooo...Oprah's on!

The truth comes out...

So clearly, I've run out of gibberish to spew onto this blog, so maybe I'll just start with some yappy ideas that have just come to me....well there's....uh....crap, I got nothin'.

I've just spending my days trying to sleep. A recent visit to my gp and I've found that now even my favorite activity in the world...SLEEP is now being added to the list of things getting affected my ridiculous aging. It's just so unfair. I never ever worried about growing old...always thought it was better than the alternative. But if this is going to cause issues with wonderful, blissful sleep....well...that's unacceptable. I simply refuse to age gracefully! I will fight for sleep. It is worth it. I love it, the resting, the relaxing, the dreaming...the dreaming is the best part.

Belief

So this morning I need to believe. There is no way a gay football player would EVER be ok with coming out while still in the NFL...but this morning...I need to believe. I need to believe that he would and would do so proudly. Not only that...I need to believe that he would do so with his family behind him 100%. Black, white, latin, asian...it wouldn't matter...but, sadly...I know it won't happen...no matter how many friends say it could. I want to believe that he can do it...but...I know he won't.

the past...wow!

So, yea...that was the guy and there he is...married, a daughter...wow...years and years...better him than me. I suppose I should be more in that..."turn a different corner" mode, but I guess...I'm more...yep...this is me now. Couldn't have been that with him...would never have worked...even a little, huh? The chapter is close...for sure. On ward and up ward.

videotape, lies & more lies

it's kinda funny...people work really hard to keep from hurting other people, but lies ...actually...truth or lies...if you hurt someone...it hurts...no real reason this has come to me, but since it has...just thought I'd say it.
