Why
OK. I have not been doing a good job of posting updates in the blog. I've been working on the Website part of it first. I've made some progress there. It's been tough because I have been working way too much (as usual). I put in almost 75 hours last week alone. We had a big meeting on Sunday at work and I had to do tons of work for from presentations to all kinds of printed material.
I went out Friday night with Pamela and Karen. I should not have gone at all because I had so much work to do on Saturday for the meeting Sunday. So I was going to only have 1 or 2 drinks and come home. We were having such a good time I said screw it and had too many martinis and took a cab back to Pamela's place to crash. There was this interesting table of cute guys when we closed down the bar. Pamela and I walked around downtown to see what was going on. We were drunk and having a great time and following those cute guys to see if there were any interest. But alas, they spilt up got in their cars and went home.
I really needed to do go out and let loose. I've not really been in a good mood. I don't ever sleep much, have been like that since I was a baby. However, sometimes I go through extreme periods of insomnia. I'm in one now. I can't sleep and it gets me so mad because I am tired... but still 2, 3, 4:00 AM comes and I'm still awake and have to get up for work at 6:00 AM. Normally I'm up to about 1 AM. But falling asleep around 4 AM and getting up at 6:00 really sucks. Anyway, that's not why I'm cranky. I don't really know what it is. But right now I'm simply not happy. Maybe it's because I don't have my house on the market yet. I need to finish the couple of items holding me up. I just never have enough time. Maybe it's because I lonely for a lover. I don't want someone to smother me, but someone to hang with and fool around with would be nice and then see where that goes. Slim picking where I live, small town and all. I'm not happy with the way I look either. I've was never overweight as a kid, or a teen, or a 20-something, or an early 30-something. But something has changed and now I am a little heavy. Not totally fat or anything but I still don't like it. I will beat it, it's just taking longer than I though.
Pamela is going to Mexico with her girls for a few weeks and staying in our condo. I wish I could go but at this time there is too much to do. I really need to get my house on the market so I can get it sold and get working on my house in Mexico. I need the cash from my house sale here to build there. It's not that much really when compared to the US. I'll still have enough money left to live off for about 10 years without working. However, I want to keep working for a few more years and then take a very early retirement and just enjoy life.
I don't know what I'm doing for the 4th of July yet. I like to go down to the beach and float in the gulf as the fireworks go off above me. They are launched from the city pier which is landmark we are known for. Sometimes I got to a party at that some member of my adopted Cuban family's home. I met some wonderful people here in Florida, a few of which are of Cuban descent and their family has taken me in. Anytime I'm here for a holiday I am with them. I am so lucky to have them in my life. I hope that my lawn guy has come when I get home. My grass is like way too tall. I don't know where he has been. But if he has not come today, I'm going to have to cut it myself tomorrow. OK... I don't mind doing it. I actually kind of like it. I just don't have time to keep up on it. During our rainy season (now) sometimes it needs cut 2x a week and I just can't fit that in with all my work and stuff. I have 1 1/4 acre yard, it does not all get cut but enough that it takes me a few hours to cut both the front and back yards and trim work. Speaking of which... back to it.
