At work I have what I consider to be my secrect bathroom. It's a room on the other side of our office building where I can "go" freely. This bathroom is special to me because it doesn't get a lot of traffic and people can't see you go in and out and know how much time you spent doing your buisness.
Well today was different. There were at least 25 amazing looking girls waiting for thier auditions right in front of my bathroom. This forced me to use the far inferior upstairs bathroom.
I did walk by twice grinning.

Me and the Internet
Sometimes I wonder what life was like before people had internet at work. I've experienced my whole working life with some form of the internet available at my desk.

Places
I was just reading this article in a series of articles from Allan Weisbrecker http://www.surfline.com/surfnews/article_bamp_400_v03.cfm?id=22079. Weisbrecker is one of my favorite writers and his tales of travelling, surfing, drug running and cosmic travel never fail to entertain.
His current Surfline piece is on the many places that he's actually lived and surfed in. This got me thinking about all the different places that I've lived in for an extended period of time.
West Hartford CT, Santa Monica & Hollywood CA , Boulder CO, Tel Aviv Israel (twice), Buenos Aires Argentina, San Jose Costa Rica.
This short list makes up the places that I've resided in for at least a month. Once the bags are unpacked the time in a place seems to slow down and I've had the pleasure of getting into somewhat of a groove in each of these places. Now, the groove I've been in back when I was a tot living in CT was a little bit different than as a 16yr old living in Costa Rica and so on and so forth. As I get older these long stays get into a deeper meaning for me. The experience taken and left in each of these places has a special place in my heart and mind. I often remember random things, people, tastes and sights from these sojurns. There is no favorite place and I don't know if there ever will be the ONE place that tops my list.
I love to travel and experience new places. Hopefully there will be many more.
