I Swear if I Find One Leaf, I'll Get Him Fired

I can relate so much as to how this cat must feel right now.

I really love the ocean. To my friends at UNCW this must come as some surprise since I never seem interested in venturing out to the beach, but it is true. I think there is something about it that really strikes a particularly striking chord in me. Maybe it's the wide open expanse that seems so open and free to be explored. Maybe it's the ambient sound as you stroll along a bay side walk. Or maybe it's the fat man in the swimsuit he's had since 1988 who is just realizing how unwise it is to feed a seagull, for the first time.
Whatever it is, I can't deny it. I think that I will always be near a large body of water, or at least visit one often, for the rest of my life. Things seem so much simpler. Sky and horizon are finally allowed to meet without all those pesky trees and shrubbery getting in the way of things.

I just realized how much crap I have to do over the next 2 weeks and it's kind of frightening the crap out of me at the moment. so as the cabby in Collateral, taking a minute to look at the ocean and go on vacation could do a lot to help a brotha out.

...and no, I'm not at liberty to explain to you why my roommate keeps petroleum jelly next to his bed.
