Ok, so please don't just roll your eyes and skim this post...I'm in need of some serious support over here! You know I'm a big Kenny Chesney fan, ok, you all get that, right? I think you knew that already, but just in case you didn't, there it is.
So, yeah, as you can see by my countdown over there on the right, there's 26 days until I see Kenny in concert! That kicks off our Kenny vacation...3 shows in one week, traveling across 6 states, you get that too, right?
Well, here's my problem. I'm excited. Really, really excited. And for fuck's sake, I'm crying again! Yes, I said crying. Whenever I think about it, which is pretty much every second of every day, I start crying. Not boo-hoo like a baby crying, but my eyes fill up and there are tears. Real tears. And, I can't get ANY work done. No joke. I haven't done anything all day, and trust me, there's plenty to do. The next couple of weeks at work, I'm going to be completely swamped...problem is, my brain is so scattered and excited for Kenny that I can't concentrate. Not to mention, there's a constant excited knot in my stomach that just won't quit. And let's talk about how I can't sleep at night. Oh yeah, I was up at 5:00 this morning...wide awake. And usually, when I go to bed, as soon as my head hits the pillow I'm out like a light...not now. Now I toss and turn and lie awake in excitement.
I knew this was coming...the same thing happened last year, except that last year I was only going to see him one time and I had floor seats that were pretty far back. Do I need to tell you again that I'm going to see him 3 times that week with fantastic seats each time, and even front row one night??!!??
I'm excited and happy, but seriously, how am I going to make it through the next three weeks? Help!!

Her Favorite Story Is The One She's Living Right Now
Since both my vacation days and my vacation funds are already spoken for during 2007, my inner traveler has now begun planning trips for 2008. And I've come up with what could quite possibly be the best one, EVER!! Departing December 26th, 2008, off we go to celebrate New Year's in St. John, USVI!! Are you so excited that you can't even stand it, cause I TOTALLY am!!
I'm not talking about some fancy vacation where we're going to stay at The Westin, St. John, although it is quite lovely. No, we're thinking more along the lines of the Cinnamon Bay Campground where we can, at least for a week or two, live the authentic island life! I want to lay on the beach, eat at all of the whole in the wall shacks, and drink the homemade rum at places like Foxy's (BVI's) and pound beers at Woody's, and drive a Jeep around the island on the wrong side of the road! We're going to take day trips over to the BVI's and experience the tranquility that these islands are.
Oh, and in case you were wondering why we're going over New Year's? Are you freakin serious? Foxy's is home to one helluva NYE party! A two day NYE party! (And Foxy suggests a third day for recovery!) They say the biggest amusement on New Year's Day is watching all of the hungover people searching for their dinghy's out in the water. People, I can't wait! And I'm pretty sure there'll be tears when Foxy and I actually meet. Seriously, read this to get a glimpse of who Foxy is and how he lives. Amazing, truly amazying!
You might be surprised to learn that I, Miss spoiled brat who gets freaked out by bugs who's afraid of the dark and can't stand dirt, is ECSTATIC about a vacation like this, but honestly, simply thinking of this vacation puts my soul at ease. I could totally live the island life...forever! Don't be surprised if I shack up with the locals and refuse to come home, cause I'm seriously considering it!
And while you might be wondering what the title of this post has to do with the actual post itself, let me fill you in on what's on the horizon: Kenny Vacation, Kenny again, Girls cruise to the Bahamas, Florida trip with the kids, Key West, USVI's and BVI's...seriously, I'm a pretty happy, travelin' kind of girl!

It Came Upon Me Wave On Wave
By now you should all know that I live near the ocean, and more importantly, you should know that I HEART the ocean. Heart, heart, heart!
Yesterday was an anxiety filled day...nothing too major, but some lingering stress from the night before just kept brewing and brewing. I figured that once I got out of work, instead of emotional eating which is my most favorite past time, that I'd try something more productive and go for a walk. (Hello, going to see Kenny in 6 weeks...need to lose some pounds!)
With the mood that I was in I feared that I might be like Forrest Gump and keep on running and running, (except in my case it would walking and walking, because right about now if I ran too far I'd have a heart attack) so before leaving I set a limit for myself. I decided that I'd walk to the beach that is directly to the East of my house (yes, there is also a beach directly to the West of my house!!) and back and that surely a trip to the ocean would cure everything! And I was right!
Ok, so I set out on my walk, iPod in hand, and sorry to all of the bikers that, in passing, got to hear my stressed out versions of Kenny's island music. (Side note: do yourself a favor and buy this cd. Even if you're not a country music fan, this cd is a must have. Kenny wrote all of the songs about stories and people that he's met during his time spent in the islands. The music is amamzing and has the ability to take me away to a different world in an instant.)
So after walking for a bit (and a brief attempt at running) I arrived at the beach...the sun was just starting to set, and there must have been 150 people at the beach. There were over 50 people in the water surfing (I counted) as well as many locals playing ball with their dogs, frisbee with their buddies, and I even noticed one lady who was laying out (at 7:30pm??). Anyhoo, I approached the water while still listening to my iPod, and if you know me at all, you know that the ocean and the iPod are my two favorite things, so at this moment, my stress started to slowly fade. I stood there for a while taking in deep breaths of ocean air and letting them out slowly while staring into the ocean as far as my eyes could see. This is the beach that I was at:
Although I was starting to feel a lot better, it wasn't until I walked into the ocean that I felt completely whole again. I walked right in, sneakers and all, and my feet played and danced in that ocean for the next few minutes. Who needs therapy when there's an ocean nearby? Miss Cupcake summed it up best when she said 'it's funny how something so illogical can feel so right.' Normally I would have whined and cried about having wet, spongy shoes and socks and a 20 minute walk ahead of me, but last night, it was the best feeling in the world.
So as I breathed in the last few breaths of ocean air for the evening, I exhaled and let all of my stress leave with it. It was an awesome feeling. And then me and my wet feet started the journey home, passing all of the quaint little beach houses along the way. I smiled, I sang, I inhaled fresh, clean air, and my happy, wet feet danced the whole way home.

God didn't promise days without pain,laughter without sorrow, or sun without rain
But God did promise strength for the day
comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Happily Ever After...
The happy marriage, two perfect kids, the nice house, the nice car, the dog, and the white picket fence = happily ever after, right? HELL, NO...that's what I say!
Don't get me wrong, I truly believe that marriage is a beautiful, beautiful thing...I really do. For those of you that are happily married, I say congratulations, becuase it's wonderful. But, I wonder how many people are truly happy...really and truly, true to your self, true to your soul happy. I've been there y'all...I've been married, and although it didn't turn out the way it should have from a marriage stand point, I truly believe that it turned out exactly as it should have for me.
Now, being single for the last year and a half has been fun...lots and lots of fun...probably too much fun, but hey, I need it! And I've come to the conclusion, and slap me for being skeptical, but men really do SUCK!! Seriously, I love them dearly...great people, great friends, they have good hearts, and let's not forget about the obvious...they're great in bed! But alas, let me get back to the reason that they suck...men cheat. That's right ladies, men cheat. Husbands cheat, boyfriends cheat, and the single ones, well they'll probably end up cheating on someone someday too. And I'm not being all bitter...this has NOTHING to do with my ex-husband, but everything to do with the boys that I've come into contact with this past year. I don't hate men...in fact, I love them a whole lot, however...being single has opened my eyes to a lot of things, and quite honestly, the more I see of men in general, the more I realize that my own happily ever after isn't going to consist of the whole 'white picket fence' scenario.
This WILL BE my happily ever after:

This WILL BE my happily ever after:
- A beach house = a cute comfy house, a slight breeze flowing through the open windows, sun beating in, and a nice porch that opens out to the soft, white sandy beach.
- An Island = I'm not sure on which island this is going to be, but rest assured, it will be on an island. Some cute shops, local restaurants, watering holes, and plenty of local folks who share their life stories.
- Girlfriends = plenty of girlfriends in the 'hood to shop with, lay out with, dream with, and chat about the things that only girls can.
- Sun = I know it seems obvious, but in my happily ever after, the sun will be beaming every single day, with temperatures varying from low 80's to high 90's, and of course, no humidity.
- Margarita's = Ah yes, plenty of Margarita's. And plenty of my girlfriends' adult beverages of choice. This is quite important for the...
- Nightly soirees on my porch = Each night, the girls and I will gather on my porch to reflect on the day's events, and to relish in the dreams for tomorrow.
So for all of you happily married folks, I sincerely wish you well and am in awe of the relationships you have created...it is truly admirable.
But for the girl's out there like me that have witnessed too much wrong to think that things could ever be right with a relationship...please, pull up a chair on my porch, and what can I get you to drink?

Song Lyrics...
I am a huge music lover...HUGE. It accompanies every single moment of my life, and I don't know what I'd do without it. I don't have time for a big post right now, so I just want to post these two lyrics from songs that I was listening to on my iPod this morning...can't get them out of my head!
"We come here with nothing, take it with us the day we leave, the first and last breath don't matter, it's all the ones that are in between." ~ Sugarland "Happy Ending"
"How do you keep your feet on the ground, when you know, you were born to fly?" ~ Sara Evans "Born To Fly"
Oh wait, here's another good one that I was just listening to...hehehe...
"Oh Darling, how I'd love to lay you down..." ~Kenny Chesney

You're Only As Strong As...
The tables you dance on, the drinks you mix, and the friends you roll with.

Yup, a little bored, so here's my post for the evening...not all that exciting, but I actually like these things...
1. Where were you 1 hour ago?
Same place I am right now, in my living room, playing on the 'puter. Might have taken a break to clean up poop off of my bathroom floor. Yup, good times.
2. Have you ever laid underneath the stars?
Yes, most recently last summer in my back yard with Heidi listening to the iPod.
