Distractions
Man, it's hot today. Fall's on the way, though. I love the mountains in the fall. Is that a guitar I hear? I hope we have pizza later. The last pizza I ate wasn’t hot when it got to the house. This coffee is hot, though. Hot coffee is the best. With cream and sugar. I shouldn’t use sugar. I don’t need the calories. Wonder what time the gym closes tonight? Hope that smelly dude doesn’t show up on the treadmill next to me again. Maybe I’ll run outside if he’s there. I need to cut my grass. And finish putting up blinds. Man, I have to pay bills tonight, too. Gonna be a late night, I’ll probably end up brewing a pot of coffee. Where’s my coffee? I could have sworn I poured a cup.

I saw an article on the TAG Heuer Meridiist in the latest issue of a certain men's magazine (the kind with articles, not pictures, thank you very much). I couldn't help but check out the website.…
The Ultimate Rental

Everybody laughed at us. Not with us.
Five Minute Vacation
There is nothing quite like being on an island, knowing that beyond the rocky outcrop on which you stand is an extremely large expanse of water populated by colorful fish, roving boats, and the occasional nuclear submarine. It's a good feeling to know that given a serious episode of not being able to read a map, the worst you can do is travel in…
