After two stops on my 2019 midlife crisis tour – Atlanta and Orlando – it was time to head to the final stop in Miami. Monday around 1pm, after some work calls, I was in the Caddy heading south. The drive towards Miami on the Turnpike was much slower than the ride north, made seemingly much slower with the lack… Read more »
I’m back in Austin (for a few days anyway) after spending a week or so in South Florida. As mentioned in my previous post, I was in Key West for a wedding of a good friend of mine and since we flew into and out of Fort Lauderdale, we spent some time with my college roommate and her husband. They… Read more »
Be warned, this is going to be a vent-post… In a few minutes, I have to get moving and get ready for my friend’s wedding down here in Key West. My friend Renee and her fiance had quite the adventure getting here. They were supposed to fly down Monday morning but then we saw a Facebook post from her fiance… Read more »
I know it must feel like I’m in Florida every other week. And maybe because it’s pretty damn accurate. I’ll be heading back to South Florida next week. However, this time it’s for a wedding of a friend of mine from back in the day. She was one of my best friends when I lived in Ohio. Even though I’ve… Read more »
I’m in Miami right now, staying at my college roommate’s house. We had a great weekend boating up to Ft. Lauderdale and back on the Intercoastal. I had lots of sunscreen, swim shirts, long bathing suit coverups, a hat, and massively oversized sunglasses on for the vast majority of the time on the water. Which was fine with me as… Read more »
Now that SXSW is over, I had thought that my life would settle down for a few weeks at least. While I had a lot of fun running around, listening to a bunch of live music and discovering some new bands, I’m not going to lie – SXSW is not a time where you get to relax. And I’m paying… Read more »
I’m back in Austin and back at work. I am having a difficult time getting motivated to be a productive worker bee even though I have a ton of work to do. I think I’m in mourning because I really had a great time over the past couple of days and it’s hard to believe that it’s over. Adam Ant… Read more »
OK, now that I’ve checked out of that hotel, I need to warn all y’all about staying at the Sheraton Jacksonville… Do not be deceived by the nice newer furnishings. As evidenced by my last post, that place has the worst insulation between the walls of the guest rooms. I’ve stayed in Motel 6s that had better sound proofing. Yesterday… Read more »
Currently sitting in a hotel just south of Jacksonville and since I finally got done doing a super-critical, last-minute work document, I figured I would recap my last couple of days in Florida for what I’m billing as my midlife crisis concert tour – for no other reason than I have the laptop fired up and I need to create… Read more »
So, I’m hanging out in my hotel room in Clearwater pretending to get ready for a work meeting I’m having in 20 minutes. I should be out running around checking out the beach and finding lunch but instead, I’m updating my blog… Seriously, I need to get my priorities in order. Actually after this meeting, I have to check out… Read more »
