A note to you while you are in the bathroom.

Its hard to act cool in front of you because whenever I see you, my brain is like, "This person is so wonderful, now say something stupid" and I'm like, "Awesome idea brain" then I say something stupid....because I'm an idiot.

Honestly, I am having a wonderful time with you. You are heading back this way. Got to go. 

Something big is on fire at the airport.

Update from Daddy class

So the perverted hippy nurse tells the Daddy Class that we will be watching the process of a child being born tonight . This is fine

This is fine. I have seen the old high school health shock flicks on the subject. No surprises here. The young man I have been partnered with tonight however must have skipped that class while he was knocking up his 16 year old girlfriend. 

About midway through the crowning section of the film, I look over at his face and see THIS. He was in total shock of what was about to happen to his little girlfriend. 

Randomness, I know. I just though I should share. 

Found online.

1. For the last 5 years, I have had a Linux server running in my office for random file storage, running the motion sensors on the back doors, and monitoring the temperature of the aquarium. At a draw of 4 Amps, that is almost 700 dollars a year in power. It took me this long to calculate that. Today I took it all down, transferred everything to either a stand alone netbook or hosting on the Amazon Cloud and powered off the tower. 
2. After writing the post the other day about the LLee, there has been this deep feeling of regret sitting on my chest because I let her go. Tonight, when my paperwork was done and I was just sitting in my favorite chair reading a book, a powerful urge to sail again hit me. I want to leave from Savannah, and hold a course of straight east until the lights of America drop below the horizon. I want to go where when the sun goes down, there is nothing but the black. I miss the deep rumbles of thunder in the night as the waves lap at the side panels. I want to lay on the deck with someone and look up at the milky way as we pass through the universe. 
3. I am fighting the tail end of a sinus infection. How bad is it if tomorrow instead of going to lunch, I head down the street to my gym and just sit in the sauna for an hour? Im at the dry sinus stage which hurts in this cold snap we are having right now. There is no way I am contagious yet I am worried about someone getting all pissed off at me if I let a cough go in there. 

Cleaning out the photo folders on my server tonight, I happened on this photos from the last trip I took on my boat. This was the end of a long trip down the coast of Florida for a delivery to the new owners.
When I pulled port that morning, the sun had not even begun to rise into the sky. I knew that I would never feel her shudder after going over the top of an extremely tall wave. That was the one time I was afraid for my life as well as having the best time. We would never race a pod of dolphins in the wash of the Savannah river. We would never again pull into an international waterway for shelter from a strong thunderstorm. Those were fun.
This photo was taken as I sat on the pier, waiting on the couple to show up with the rest of the retainer payment. I had sailed all night non stop just to make the deadline for delivery. It was the best night on the water I had ever had. That boat pulled me through the hardest mental part of my life up to that point. She was what I needed in order to retain my sanity.
I never should have let her go.

I say fuck you, she was my sea.  "

 I just picked a piece of asphalt out of my cheek.

24 years old asphalt .
That crap has been in my face for 24 years and I didn't know it.
I wrecked my skateboard on Dogwood Trail's largest hill my 8th grade year of middle school. The skateboard which I was on was not set up correctly for speed and about halfway down a speed wobble threw me off balance, I then hit a stone which in turn sent me face first into the blacktop and skidding into the creek at the bottom of the hill.
The scars were all over my face. When I get hot or excited, you can still see where my red face does not match up with the rest of it. I took off a large section of the my upper lip, above the right eye and most of my chin. For years, I would occasionally feel some coming out of my upper lip.
Now apparently, I have to worry about it still in my cheek.
