Well, (Hey did anyone else ever notice how many times I started my blogs with 'Well'?), here I am offhore again. The weather is chilly willy for the Gulf of Mexico. All the harsh weather up north has brought high winds and rough seas to the Gulf Coast of Louisiana. I've fended off my mania for the time being. Feeling really good, but I don't know how it will go when I get back on land with all of the construction near my apartment.
A friend of mine was buried the other day. He was 36 years old, and sick with some form of cancer since he was 24. They tried everything, but all it did was extend the inevitable. Really a damn shame too. Its almost a relief though that he has passed. He was not comfortable for the last several years. So I'll raise a toast to Bunz when I get back on land.
My mother was down in town for a week at the begining of the month, and she was excited to have driven down from Wisconsin for the first time since her retirement. Had a lot of good food, and even got to see the Santa's Parade with my niece. It was the first one she will remember (I hope) Anyways. Everything is going great, and my writing is going well, but I need to resolve some of the bear portion of the story before I move back to Lit-Net 9...I hope everyone that celebrates the holidays of any kind enjoys them... Christmas, Hajj (I know it is a pilgrimmage and not a holiday, but is it not also to be celebrated or rejoiced?), Kwansaa, Hanukkah...anything I'm missing.
Later, B
