Learning How to Live


After my very spontaneous weekend of driving down to Cocoa Beach to check out their annual surfing festival, I can say that I am truly learning how to live! Who needs plans and reservations and crazy stuff like that!?!?! Just get in the car, pick up a friend and drive down to see what trouble you can get into.

I didn't actually get into any trouble mind you, but I did enjoy getting to the beach and checking out the HOTT surfer dudes. If only I were a few years younger. But I digress. The weekend was great and I even got a little sun and some much need time to relax on the beach.

The water was too turbulent to swim much, but the weather was great once the showers passed. The surf was so loud that even the sounds of the Marleys (Bob and Ziggy) pouring through the ear buds of my ipod could not drown it out. (Thank you Tropical Storm Hannah and Hurricane Gustav!)

All in all, even with the crazy weather in the Gulf and the Caribbean, it was a great weekend. Eating amazing food and drinking great beer on a beach can't be beat. Maybe that's why they call it paradise?!?!?

That's living my friends!

Oooo that sounds like a lovely way to spend your time....I am the queen of spontaneous...hate being booked/reserved etc. It's a blast to just get up and go. Problem is sometimes it's not so easy to find someone else to do it with you.....
Good for you, livin, it's the way to go.

Myself- yes, I do have a problem finding willing participants to be completely spontaneous with me, but I can't help it. If I can't find a friend to hang with me, I'll go alone damn it! ;)

AGAW- Damn skippy! ;)
