Destiny 7:19 PM I知 sitting on the deck of Destiny. The setting sun is reflecting off of the water. It hits me in the face as it passes by the US flag. Uncle Bill just left to go to the yacht club meeting. He is the purser/financial guy. Aunt Mary and Sean are at the movies. I am alone! Unless you count Toto, their dog. He痴 sleeping at my feet. We finally had a beautiful day. It痴 been a while since I致e seen the sun. We went ashore to shower. Then it was off to lunch at another club. I had a good chicken sandwich. They had chicken salad that looked pretty good. Sean had pizza. We then...

Weekend

Posted by on Aug 15, 2004 in Journal

Chelmsford, MA 10:25 AM I am sitting at the dining room table of my Uncle Bill and Aunt Mary’s condo in Chelmsford (north of Boston), MA. It’s a rainy Sunday as Charley has made his way up to town. He’s not hitting like he did in Florida but I still wish he’d get out of here. I was supposed to be in Martha’s Vineyard this weekend. I pushed it back because of the expected rain. I may push it back again because its %80 chance today and tomorrow. You don’t want to be at Martha’s Vineyard in the rain. I may go with UB & AM to their sail boat in Boston Harbor. But, it’s...

Kinko’s

Princeton, NJ 11:30 AM After an exhausting two and half days in NYC, I’m back near Princeton typing at the Kinko’s. They want to charge .15 per minute here for the Internet. A little steep in my eyes. But here I am, feeling proud of my time in the Big Apple. I will admit I was drained physically and mentally from my time there, and went to bed near 10 last night. There is so much to do and see and I tried to do it all. I think all tourists are intimidated by going to the city. I had been there a couple of times but I had always had a tour guide. This time I was on my own. Joe showed me...

NYC 12:27 PM I am in the public librbay on 79th. I’m in NYC. My time is short as they only allow 15 minute internet intervals. My CPU is pretty much fixed. I was at Comp USA from 9:30 AM until 6:15 PM on Saturday. Doug and Steve took care of me. I satyed in the back and they helped me when they could. WE had to install a new hard drive. not something you ever want to do. I got back, packed a bag and headed to the North Jersey shore with Ginny and Michael. Their entire family goes there pretty muvh every weekend. In a two bedroom house there were the 3 of us, Nana and Pop Pop, Walt,...

Princeton, NJ 5:47 PM Another busy day in Jersey. I woke up after a great nights sleep and did some emails. My email system is delayed because it is now all web based. I had an interview at 10:45 and made the five minute drive. I was greeted by a mean sounding dog, Wallace. He turned out to be a baby. He wanted to be petted the whole time I was there. I think he was a chocoalte lab. Very cool. I was interiewing an OR Nurse, Janice. She had some great insight into the field and some interesting stories to tell. She’s the kind of person that likes fast paced action. An operating room is...
