Beach Adventure

Just gotback from the beautiful beaches of Clearwater, Florida. Saw some sting rays and my personal favorite, dolphins. They are so beautiful and graceful, and for some unkown reason, they actually appear to like people. Now, beautiful and graceful I can do nothing about, but I'm trying real hard to model the third leg of that triumvirate. It's not always easy. Other people aren't always the biggest problem, ether. I find that more often than not, when a human being lets me down, that very person is me. For instance, I have a problem with money. The less I have, the more I feel the need to spend. It's infuriating. And then I'll go and do something stupid, like lock my keys in my trunk,and I'll set myself back another $400I don't have to begin with. I'm usually okay at the time, I don't panic. I just take care of business, cause what else are you gonna do? Turn back the hands of time and not set down the keys? I would LOVE to have that talent. But.... And Alohomora just doesn't seem to work without the wand. So there we were, stuck in the parking lot of the condo, waiting for the locksmith to arrive, when I came to the realization that my problem with money has to stop. I've taken steps to grownupdom, like opening a savings account and clearing up my credit report, but the reality of being a good money manager has yet to sink in. And it needs to change, soon. Cause right now I'm worth more dead than I am alive. And that bites.
