Wednesday and not much going on yet. No surf to speak of but that may change by early next week (I hope). I’m really looking forward to heading home this weekend. Here’s the plan so far… Fly in Friday and arrive around noon in Columbus where Sheizka is going to pick me up. From there I’ve got 5 hours to kill until she gets off work so I’ll be joyriding around in her car I guess. Friday night I’m heading to Mom’s house and hanging with the family all evening. Saturday I hope to get on the road by 11 so I can make lunch with Surface, then off to Party Source for the liquor and beer run. Party starts when we start drinking at that point. Looks like there’s going to be a good crew in town, even Matt in Atlanta is coming up. Sunday’s still up in the air but Bryan’s got a few party options for the fireworks though I’m not sure I’ll be doing too much partying. Flight leaves mid day on Monday and I’m back in the heat of South Florida. ‘Just hope no one breaks into my pad again when I’m gone. Should be... Continue Reading

Mark and Jordanna finally made their move to Ft. Lauderdale last week and invited me down for dinner and to explore the bar scene in their new hood. Mark’s place is amazing. Penthouse on the 22nd floor of a building right off of Las Olas Blvd. within walking distance to the primary bar district. Right on River Walk – lucky bastard. Mark’s little 17 year old brother ,Greg, came down from Boca as well and the challenge became trying to get him into the bars with a less than convincing fake ID. After dinner at Mark’s (the restaurant, not his... Continue Reading

I got the call around 4:15 this afternoon from Mark, the condo manager, that my condo was broken into. What the hell!??? Yeah, some local delinquents broke into my house using a crowbar on my front door. Broke the door lock, frame and door itself to get in. They then proceeded to snag my $1,400 Canon Digital Rebel (and case and card) off the counter and completely trash my bedroom. Emptied my drawers, dumped every box in my closet and went through everything looking for cash, drugs and guns. The police were on the scene when I got home and... Continue Reading

So I was in attendance at our last condo association meeting the other day because they were going to announce the new “Special Assessment” fee. Granted this assessment fee will put new roofs on a few buildings and treat all of the buildings for termite damage as well as a few other things but damn man. We just finished paying off the last assessment for the canal cleanup that the city of Boynton Beach made us pay. This one is much bigger though and a much bigger hit to the wallet. Imagine your rent going up $450 a month for... Continue Reading

The surf came and went just as quickly and the Surfline forcast isn’t showing much in the next few days at all except maybe some unrideable 1-2 slop. Not really much going on other than that either. Eagerly waiting for next weekend but that’s about it. Dan’s in Georgia for the next two weeks and when he gets back I’m outa here until after Labor Day. I may have some cool business travel stuff coming up (if Bill let’s us go) but I’ll hold off on that one. The cough is still around and going strong. I actually had to... Continue Reading

Finally some surf. Saturday evening before the sun went down the chop came up. Meager 1-3 ft. wind chop but it was so good to be back in the water. Sunday’s surf was a bit mushy because of the high tide during mid day but it was still fun and rideable none the less. I met up with Dan and Mary down in Delray and we surfed for a couple hours before the tide really crapped out the surf. Met up with Christine and one of her friends after Dan and Mary took off and we headed to Shore (a... Continue Reading

Yay, I don’t look as old as I feel (sometimes). It was actually kind of odd but hey, it made me feel good. I walked into ye’ olde’ liquor store last night to pick up a few things and walked up to the counter with my stash when the girl behind the counter began giving me that look. Like she’s not quite sure I’m old enough to be buying such hard alcohol – or any for that matter. So, she asked… and looking in my wallet I remembered I left it at the club in South Beach last weekend knowing... Continue Reading

Surface is throwing a bash at his house</a> on Saturday, September 1. Motorboatin’ is the theme this year. “Hey, what were they like anyway? They looked pretty good, are they real? Are they built for speed or comfort? What’d you do with them? Motorboat? You play the motorboat? You motorboatin son of a bitch! You old sailor you! Where is she? She still in the house?” – I’ll be there!... Permalink
