Paradise With Traffic

For those of you that thought me dead, I'm not. Some days I might wish I were, but along with being thin and winning the lottery, the death wish has been ignored. But of course if I had my choice of which to stop ignoring, it would be the lottery. And Florida is paradise with traffic from October thru mid May. Then the humidity spikes along with the tempature and you feel like you are trying to breathe soup. And of course today is the first day of hurricaine season and I swear there is some sort of a hurricaine union somewhere with a calendar because there is one forming as I type. On the first damned day!!!



The drive to work each day is a good one. Little traffic on that causeway and bridge which I don't understand. I go across at 70 miles an hour and they pass me like I was sitting in a side ditch! However, I drive aprox 12 miles over water each way and it is so pretty. I go 4 miles north, then 8 miles east and it is all over water. And the water smells so good in the morning. Some days it smells like fresh rainfall.

I find a true enjoyment in listening to the cry of the seagulls. However, as I watch them swoop down near me, shades of Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" races thru my mind and I desperately look for a building to duck into.

My sister and her family are here visiting and that is good. My neice is 16 now and is she gorgeous. I'm sure her dad is ready for prozac and a good antiacid.

Did you know: What do bulletproof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers and laser printers have in common? They were all invented by women.

I will try to keep a better handle on blogging and you all have a good June.
