Why is it Sunday night again? There should be a law banning it.

Oh good, the (checks calendar) July 12th fireworks are going off right on schedule... Sigh

i stand corrected

One of the horrible people actually died!! Can we make it a twofer?

It's amazing how much better life feels after 10 hours of sleep and prescription strength hydrocortisone cream!

Between the canker sore, lip blister (from the sun), the poison ivy rash , and getting little sleep last night d/t getting home at 1 am (thanks lightning storm just after wheels down), I am very uncomfortable and cranky today…

Nothing says "Welcome home" like a trip to urgent care

I hate the approach returning from vacation

I just had a front row seat to an ugly American being ugly- in an airport lounge no less-- and my first reaction was 'Why is she so angry? Did she think that going through pre-clearance meant she was back in America? There are still, at least. 4 more hours until the anger re- manifests...'

I forgot how much the Aruban airport departure experience sucks

I'm gonna miss this view...sigh

Watching all the World Cup stuff reminds me of me of my (very) brief Soccer experience... it was too much work-- running up and down the field all the time...

Dinner place is playing 'Caribbean Queen ' Yes, yes I am

There is something about The Pouges, that makes one dance and sing along in public....

Nothing says 'happy vacation' like the forced text message AND email from Cologuard reminding you that it's time for your next test.... FFS

Current view

Nice to see Morocco, the first country to recognize the U.S. independence, defeat the hosers who stayed loyal to King George III on July 4.

Today would be a great day day for someone horrible to die...

I didn't get to SuperFoods today and my day feels incomplete- will have to make an extra special trip tomorrow.

Everyone is always so surprised when I say I'm traveling alone-- I don't get it -- maybe because I traveled a lot early in my career and my dislike of most people, why would I saddle myself with an annoying traveling companion?

Said as someone who loves the Mall and has always wanted to see the fireworks from there: Please do not go to the National Mall tomorrow. People are going to die. One bottle of water allowed and four "hydration stations" for potentially 150,000 people when Real Feel temps are 100° at 6 PM is madness

The streets of Brooklyn and Queens must be empty, because most of the inhabitants are currently here in Aruba…

Ahoy!

Breakfast place is playing 'Caribbean Queen'... yes, yes I am. Today's theme song has chosen me.

Happy Friday, from this happy island....

I had a reservation for a Chef's table dinner... I thought it was for tomorrow, it was for tonight... I'm at the completely other end of the island and waaayy underdressed, so trying to go was not even an option...at least I wasn't charged. FFS

Apparently I go the grocery store every day i. Aruba....unrelated, it's become apparent that I now rely on heavily on my back-up camera...

After sitting at the edge of the water for ~20 min, letting the waves hit and ebb me, I no longer need to pay for a body scrub..

Pre -10 am beers- well earned after swimmer after swimming after turtles

Morning thought: I wonder if I can change my return flight...

Ran into Rockville guy again-- we are now officially ignoring/avoiding each other

I ain't nothin' but tired Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself Feelings brought to you by The Boss

Current view

Breakfast view

I fled the DMV , traveled over 1500 miles,and the person sitting next to right now at a bar in Aruba is from fucking Rockville....

I am an idiot

Baggage Claim, the travel equalizer

"I hope I locked the car...". Random thought when I absolutely nothing about it

Let me tell you a story, an Epic , really of a girl who has been making poor choices for almost half a century...

How is it 2026 and the people movers at IAD are still a thing?

In just over 12 hours I am boarding a flight to Aruba, it might be just be a one-way flight

On one hand, super glad to be away during the upcoming hellish weather (and holiday nonsense), on the other hand, more than a bit concerned that I'm leaving the HVAC.unit unmonitored/unsupervised during the hottest week of the year...

Power naps at 515 am , a horror story

It’s too early in the morning to be this annoyed 😒

In a mad fit of rage I used the 'C' word (censorship) during a meeting today, I'm only half kidding when I say that I somewhat expect a gang of men in balaclavas to show up at my door soon and rendition me to a Central American jail

On summer solstice, remember every day in our current timeline is the longest day.

You can work from anywhere! Yes, but I can be lazy in even more places.

I may have gone a little overboard with the shell peas from the farmers market market this morning..,,

Being this angry all of the time is probably not healthy..… Sigh
