vaca day 1

hi. vacations can be funny. it depends on how you take them, who you take them with, and why you take them.
i am not sure why i took this one. it sounded good in the middle of january when i was overwhelmed with work and wanted to get away from people and work.

i am in PNX AZ and it is currently 117 degrees outside. I don't think I have ever even felt 117 degrees, but let me assure you, coming from someone who likes it hot--ITS FUCKING HOT.

so here I am again--at the computer. as soon as I get done here, I am going to take a nap--fo show.

if you are like me, vacations alone as very inticing. i like the flex in a solo trip--for instance-- what is the first thing YOU would do once arriving at destination known? yes--go to the workout center and THEN the bar and finally the pool.

Had I brought a companion with me-I would be grumpy--having to skip the workout for frivilous things--like eating or something.

when i travel solo i eat the minimum requirements to survive in order to save for other things...this is something I wish i could change, actually, because apparently I am missing the local fare in each and every city whether dometstic orimport I have ever been...example:

"God the food in Paris was so incredible. The best food I have ever eaten. I must have gained at least 15 pounds there."
My thoughts--- "Are you kidding me? I don't remember the food being all that extraordinary. But the wine! The wine was awesome!"
'nough said.

Still, I miss my girl and my best pal and wish that one or both could be with me now..

I have read 2 1/2 books so far and bought another just in case. They make good bed fellows anyway....
