I'm off for the summer. Sure I have some work to do here and there - but that will keep me sane. This has already been an amazing summer....and it is only going to get more amazing. I've re-met up with a surprisingly varied cross section of old friends from high school, college, and even old jobs, and we've been hanging out and enjoying the varied nightlife of Syracuse and all the wonderful summer-fests (Brewfest on July 11th. One of the best in the Northeast. If you're up this way, stop by!!). It's amazing how people change for the better (for the most part) as they get older. Half of the change is in myself too, I gather.

 

My friend just bought a boat, so we've been spending ample amounts of time out on the water, enjoying the day, and of course fishing, which is my forte. Now I have someone to tool around with on my jetski, which has been out a surprising number of times this year. I've found that when one is good with finances, and does not maintain debt (I literally have about a thousand dollars in debt right now - all from student loans) you can still afford to enjoy things that use gas.

 

As many of you know I will be going to Peru in August. Between now and then, I have some camping trips planned up to ADK with friends who are flying from around the country to go to. Should be fun. One of the most important parts of this summer is training because the Inca trail is a 3 day 30 mile hike that is for the most part above 13,000 feet in elevation. I've dropped a few pounds to get myself in good shape and I've been hitting the stair master and mountain biking like an animal. I just had all my shots yesterday (Yellow Fever, Thyphoid, Hep A) to get ready.

 

And that's about it. I don't normally blog about my doings, but I just felt like it all hopped up on caffeine with nothing to do today but whatever I want.

Got me thinking
laughwithme got me thinking with her blog entry about the old mooniethecat blog. What fun times those were when blogging was so new, so in, so....exciting. We've lost so many people along the way. Some can claim you've lost me for the most part. I've mellowed out, toned down...tuned out...whatever. It was something about the community that was built, the lives that were touched. Blogs, which are people, fall by the wayside. They don't leave us with good-bye's....

They fade out. Maybe they don't mean to, but they do. Lets look at what they left us with.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, this is sick and disturbing: they are daring to slander a war hero.”

 

Who said this, and to whom was he or she referring?...

.......

We banded together to form the original 13 colonies, but they aren’t us.  They don’t think like us, they don’t see the world like us.  When are we going to realize that their views and our views are different?

 

And when is that going to be considered reality, as opposed to the fantasy that Hannity and his callers have absorbed?

Hiatus

I think that's long enough.

 

You really don't want to take the cake out of the oven before it's finished rising, or it falls and you wind up with unintentional brownies.  Or yellowies, or whities, depending on the recipe.  Poke it with a tootpick and...

 

Yes, I do believe it is done....

........

In the meantime I fuck the biker chick, the executive, the pin-up model and the fangirl.  Then I look for a new job.

 

Bonus points if I can manage to do them all at the same time (and believe me, I intend to try).  Kinda makes me want to watch American Psycho again.

adieu

adieu, lovely people, interesting people, thoughtful, witty, edgy, kind and gifted people.  quiet, gentle people.  It's been a pleasure, but I've got a booda baby and the yin to attend to and a tale to write. 

 

I'm sure I'll drop in to read your fantastic musings and observations, so I'll keep this blog (such security measures). 

 

I wish you all genuine happiness and passion and action.  Being totally engaged in your life. 

 

Adieu.  Peace.  And a great deal of respect.

So you wonder, where did they go? What is going on in their lives now? Are they happy?


I suppose it's not too different from real life. People fade. Memories remain.


I miss you all.
