Lord, we're all old!

I got to thinking more about it and there is a difference in doing what you love and having to do what you love. That's where I am getting sick of it.

Not that I have to do any of this. It's a tough choice though. My problem is really Hukilau. Even though for the most part, things are going well this year, it has still absorbed normal life. Not to mention several hundred dollars and all our vacation time.

We'll access after the event, but my vote is to stop doing it. We have so much support for next year already, but man. I want my life back.

I used to go to the gym 3-4 days a week and I realized that was sucking up all my time. I quit that. Gained 40 pounds and cholesterol at 247 and sugar at 500...

Anyway. Enough bitching. It's tiredness mostly. Yes, a vacation will be good. We can't wait to go to Chicago in August and be the guest instead of the host and just have fun. Can't wait to get to Mexico in November. Can't wait to have nothing required for the evening but putting up bamboo in Shangri-La and mixing all the drinks in Intoxica poolside... It seems too far away though.

Forgive my damn bitching. Vacation. That's the ticket. I work to pay the bills and drive my nice car and live in my nice home, and to get a good vacation. If I didn't work, vacation would be pointless!
