Three-forths of the year I BEG for summer. I beg for the warm, sunny days that are encompassed with birds singing and flowers blooming when in fact all you see in your mind all those months are things you read about in books or see in movies. This week has been the true summer. When you are so hot and sweaty you live to take a cold shower but dread it at the same time because you'll know it won't be long before you're once again sweaty and probably twice as bad becuase you never truly dry. This week is when the air quality is gross, the blue sky is crowded by the haze, the wind doesn't exist, and the sun is so hot that you can't even go outside. But being trapped inside with the AC drives you crazy because you know that while you're sitting there feeling cool all you see is $$$ ... which is precisly why I don't have it. But it's not bad enough for me to wish for winter just yet...I'd have to be pretty freakin miserable for that!

If the Thunder Showers stay away tonight Jason and I are going on a 3 hour cruise around Portland Harbor with Casco Bay Ferry Lines. It's the sunset cruise and one of my favorites. Hopefully it will be a good night for us as we need a night together not at a race track or involved in some racing activity. I love being on the water ... I'd live in a house boat if I could. Always loved Sleepless in Seattle for that very reason. Add a boat to the next list of things I want to get.

That makes...

• Camper
• Motorcycle
• Snowmobile
• Kayak
  
• Boat

in no particular order....

Man what I wouldn't do for a vacation! I'm trying like hell to get my credit cards paid off before I leave for Florida in September but I'm not sure it's going to happen but hopefully it will so I know that I have a cushion to use down there if I get in trouble...I'm not really saving much before because I'm trying to pay those off ha-ha so that will help since I won't have any extra spending money! I know bad idea but you never know!

I still need to get to the doctors to check that spot out on my back...he wants to cut it open and do tests and stuff on it but I don't have the money for it and while I know they will do it and bill me I still don't want that extra medical bill on top of all the others...

Oh well ... back to work and get shit together ... I have to go home and do laundry and stuff done since I don't know what this weekend is going to bring. Lee on Friday night and Thompson on Saturday just not sure if we are coming back in between or not.
