I just put Icy Hot on my hip.
There is a Dutch family with a small Dutch boy (unsure of any relation to the Dutch Boy of paint fame) playing in the pool outside of my porch right now. He has not stopped speaking in the last hour and I do not know how he can sustain such a constant high pitched conversation with himself.

Do you ever get so many thoughts and ideas in your head, that it feels like there aren’t enough places to put them? Your hands can’t type fast enough, or there isn’t enough ink in the pen to cover all you want to say, or you can’t even translate what it is you’re trying to convey. It would only make sense to you.

Phew
My car smelled way less like Dude than I thought it would after the epic 4 day road trip. All that remains are broken glass under the front seats, empty Red Bull cans, and change the Craig left behind all over the car. Now if I could only get my front window to roll all the way up.

Oh, Lucky Charms. Sometimes I feel like you’re the only one that understands me.
I just had my car broken into in San Fransisco. City living is tough. We’re not in Dana Point anymore.

This is just a quick shout out to my readers in the UK and Iran. I don’t know who you are, but it’s great to have you!
