guess who's back, back again

cozumel, mexico
grand Cayman island
ocho rios, jamaica

the cruise was sweet. we didn't get to spend too much time in cayman or jamacia but it was real cool. got bombed in mexico, we went into town and got loaded at senior frogs and um... the one below it, crazy charlies maybe? i don't remember. i stole a stapler and a staple remover, thought it was ironic. i was throwing the staple remover at paul and kept missing him from 4 feet away, just too drunk, so greg threw it and nailed paul in the face, hilarious, he was bleeding and everything. the roommates i had were not what i expected. megans brother wasn't able to make it so one of gregs cousins, paul, came. he's 19 and kind of a punk. he was alright but we had to buy his drinks the whole time. Megans friends who came where two people i've never met so i was thinking maybe they were a couple of her hot friends. sadly mistaken. one of the girls was someone megan had met at her massage therapy school, she had a boyfriend and was kind of cute but a little wide (not fat, wide, you could take a 1" slice out of the middle of her vertically and put the halfs back togeather to form a normal person) the other girl was her fat friend, both 20.

it was funny to see how everyone handled the time away from home. none of hte people i was with (with the exception of megan, who still started to tire towards the end) had not really gone off to school or spent any time away from home. once the cell phones stopped working, they became lost. the home sickness bug set in quick for them.

didn't get to spend too much time at each of the stops. mexico was the longest, we left cayman by 4 and jamacia by 3. the days at sea were a little long but not unwelcomed. not quite as much to do on the boat as i expected but i filled the time well (there's a sauna who's ass i couldn't kick).

In jamacia we went on a river rafting tour. Real good, one of our guides brought over a leaf and said that if we smell it too much it will get us high (it was allspice). Megan asked if there was anything we could get to really get us high. The guy looked at us and said “we’ll take care of ya mon, don’t worry”. The guides were supposed to be takeing the groupe of 50 or so people down the river safely, like keep them awayfrom the edges and stuff. Out of 10-11 guides, there were constantly 5 of them around us at all times, giving us the vip trip down stream. While floating down the river the group made a stop and we all got beers to drink while floating. That’s when we got a nice little bag for 50$. A little farther down, another guide came up to us and said we got ripped of, he’d do us better for cheeper. We met him at the end in this little hut were we got another bag of the same size and stuff for 20. good enough, we had about a 1/3 of an ounce for two days at sea. The guides treated us like kings the whole time, it was really funny. When we got back to the boat, paul rolled a massive cuban blunt and we all got baked! A cruise ship can be one of the funnest places on earth when ripped. I saw a vegas show, played blackjack and videogames, saw a comedian bomb, had unlimited access to all the food I could think of, and the hallways moving is an adventure all in its own.

Is anyone else completely devoid of the christmas spirit this year? I could truly care less about the holidays at this point. I skipped thanksgiving this year and didn’t miss much. I had a turkey club sandwhich in amsterdam. Good enough for me. I’ve been getting bothered by religion lately. This whole “merry christmas/happy holidays” thing is mind boggeling. If those lunitics ever showed up out side my store and boycotted me I’d shoot every last one of them. It’s just not right. Its helping to taint christmas for me. I really think we’d all be better off celebrating it on a random day every year of in the middle of summer. This whole holiday season crap gets worse every year.

The religion thing is getting me because I just finished reading two Dan Brown books dealing with religioni (angels and deamons, the devinchi code). Both very good books. They help to re-enforce a lot of things I’ve always critized religion for. I’ve always known the church was crooked and creepy, these give me more reason to think so. The symboligy lessons in these books are very fascenating.

Anyone calling my house anymore seems to need to identify themselves right away, my family is getting bad at taking messages. All I get is “someone called”, no more. Tank empty.

seeing as how i've covered a good chuck of europe and taken a cruise, i've covered a few items on my "to do" list, next up is some kind of safari or jungle excurtion. of course, these maybe the only vacations if get to go on for the next two years or so, so we'll see.
