I wanna vacation! It's not like I'm overworked or anything, but the ennui is setting in bigtime. I'd probably just waste vacation anyway sitting around. Never had much of an imagination that way. You'd think vacation would be a big deal - it's like free money. But to use that money one has to spend more money. Maybe that doesn't sound like a contradiction or a catch 22 to you, but it does to me. I've got all the free time I want without vacation, but it's in daily bites, rather than a lump. To do a lump I have to go somewhere. Otherwise the small bites are fine.

Going somewhere doesn't much appeal to me. I'm going to Virginia next week and in a couple more, to Tel Aviv. But I'm a shitty tourist. There is such a thing as a "couple of tourists" but there are few individual tourists. Why look at stuff if there's no one to talk about it with? I suppose I could go look and tell you about it, but given my silver tongue you'd have no reason to go anywhere yourself.

A friend is traveling to Bali and Thailand with an eye to retiring there. He says the girls all like older men. I think the some of the girls like money. I hear it rains a lot in that part of the world. Certainly did in the Philippines. I guess I wouldn't bother going because I couldn't see myself living there anyway.

Sigh.

Toyie, in a photo where we tried to get the feeling of another photo I did with a girl named Cory a long time back. It is partly successful.

You should really try Bali.....I lived there for about 3 years. Loved it.

"Why look at stuff if there's no one to talk about it with?"- Funny, Iv'e been thinking about this. As one of India's few cycle tourists I sometimes ride and holiday alone. I do like it when someone comes along but its all right if they don't. There's a very good post on this point on a blog I frequent:
