Vacation
Do you ever find yourself sitting at your desk at your job thinking about a beach?
You are sitting out on a lawn chair or an out stretched towel way out on some pristine white sand beach
watching the tide pull in and push away, pull in, push away. You find youself watching the
wet sand change shape as it errodes carefully and smoothly away into the sea. I guess we should
blame all those Corona commercials for conditioning our brains to long for that restful, warm,
perfect climate where we throw our cell phones out into the blue and watch the waves crash in towards us.
I have recently found myself thinking about Cabo San Lucas' Club Cascadas beach on the Sea of Cortez
side of town. When I was a boy I used to travel there with my family almost every summer, but I never could seem to just sit there and rest. I was always doing something or going somewhere, or playing; I could
never just sit and relax. And now I want nothing more than to go back to that same beach; maybe I'd sip a few cocktails, maybe read a book, you know, just take it easy. I think that means that in this stage of my life I need to have a nice, calm, and relaxing vacation. I tell you what, I don't even need to go to a beach; I will take a nice calm river camping trip instead. I think the stress of the job is finally getting to me. I don't know,
what do you think?

a night it rained
I love the rain
lost focus and baby cries,
the scream of a tree
scrape lost above crackle of tight
rolled thunderous roar
"Honey it sounds like,
the roar of a lion,"
the deep grumbling bass, and
roll and bounce off dropplets
dropped off of rumbling bouncing
carports and rooftops
tick-tacking the sky with ease
and melody. I love the rain!

Disclaimer
I just wanted to take the time in order to warn you that I haven't been writing much since I got out of College six years ago, so it will take me a while to regain my flow and figure out what is worth writing about. Therefore, this blog will be more like a journal of splatter-thoughts. If you find yourself reading this and it sucks, then just click away somewhere else, but try not to stay gone for too long because if I do find my way thru this maze of creative junglousity mist you just might miss out on the early stages of my career. Thanks and enjoy!
