Hawaii, Here We Come!

July 22, 2008

After the most grueling six-month stretch of my professional career, it’s time for a vacation.  On Thursday morning, I board a plane in Orlando along with my girlfriend, Lisa, and my daughter, Alexandra, on our way to Honolulu, Hawaii where we’ll be staying seven days on the North Shore.  It’s going to be an incredible [...]

Vacation Out, Reality In

April 12, 2007

So I’m back at work today after being on vacation for a week. I guess you never get used to the first day back at work. Any time I have more than a two-day weekend, I question why I’m working in Sarasota. Once I come to the conclusion that I’m here for [...]

FabFour Mania and More

April 9, 2007

Yesterday we decided to get out and see more of the Vegas strip.  So we started walking south.  Lisa wanted to visit Paris and ride the roller coaster at New York, New York, so we did.  While in Paris, we gambled a little.  After about an hour of playing Blackjack, Lisa was up $25 and [...]

The Mirage, How Dumb Am I?

April 5, 2007

After a very long but on-time flight, we arrived in Las Vegas.  It’s been quite a few years—5 exactly—since I’ve last been in Vegas.  Besides the major construction changes, it appears to be the same-old city.  Full of expectation, I’m sad to report that our first night here at The Mirage was miserable.

Vegas, baby, Vegas

April 4, 2007

Well, it’s been a long long time since I’ve had a proper vacation.  Sure, I’ve taken days off from work, visited relatives and such, but I’ve not taken five or more days, packed a suitcase and been somewhere with no other reason than to get away, relax and have fun in about 7-8 years.  After [...]
