I'm back in the states and back to the Internet. I just spent the last week falling asleep to the sound of the ocean and waking up to the sunrise over clear blue Atlantic waters beyond the palm trees. I am less pale and my clothes smell like coconut because my bottle of Bacardi smashed in my suitcase. So thanks for that, Us Air. I smell like I bathed in Banana Boat.
But I had lots of fun in San Juan and would love to go back sometime. I even had a dream one night that I plan to turn into a short film script. I'm pretty sure it was inspired by the combination of spending the week at the ocean with my best friend and having watched Paris, Je T'aime the night before. That was a damn fine movie.
I'm in NC for now because flying a detour to visit my parents is a lot cheaper than making a separate trip. And Mom will wash the rum out of my clothes without even asking for quarters.
And I ate at Bojangles. I love LA, but they don't have Bojangles.
Two more weeks and I go back to work. I'm almost ready.
nice. glad you had a great time there! I'm going to Saudi Arabia on November, I hope it'll be interesting.
ReplyDeleteYou do know that San Juan, Puerto Rico is a territory of the USA, so technically you never left the "states," right?
ReplyDeleteWelcmz Bak!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fucking awesome vacation.
ReplyDeleteActually, Anonymous, since San Juan is the capital city of Puerto Rico, which is not in fact a state, I did leave "The States". Most Puerto Ricans will tell you they consider Puerto Rico a country.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, it was a fucking awesome vacation. You guys should all go.
