Hi folks, I'm back! It is Tuesday and I am starting my work week pumped and ready to attack after a long weekend. I had a great time and did some summer activities that were much needed. Saturday was beach day with some gal pals. For those of you who are unfamiliar, Brighton Beach is also known as "Little Russia by the Sea". Russian storefronts as far as the eye can see and teeny tiny speedos, as it turns out. What is it with eastern Europeans and banana hammocks? So confusing. Aside from the obvious lack of eye candy, the ocean was just what this Florida girl needed. This was the first time in my life I have been at the beach and felt like I was at a ball game. Every minute or so there was someone yelling about pretzels, beer, water, nut crackers (we never did figure out what those are) and jello shots. This is the beach, New York City style. Panhandlers and loiterers welcome!
Moving on.
I have been extremely social lately and decided that I needed some alone time Sunday and Monday. Without getting into tedious details, I have been spreading myself thin by trying to meet the needs of friends, my job and what my spiritual path requires of me. Hence, the last two days have been a SATC marathon, home cookin' and lazing around in general. Sometimes you just have to slow down and appreciate creature comforts and the sweet embrace of solitude. I feel spoiled.
