I am back in my suite five minutes later and just want the world to know they are blessed to bump into ladies like her. Shout out to the lovely Jennaly (sp?) who is also friendly and adorable. Love the price and value of my items. Check em out.

But for now I'm in Sarasota and it's party central and dreams of the continuation of sugar plums and a bright tomorrow still dance in every head. This above statement, although a bit rigid, seems to be the predominant head space for our lovable assembly at the church of Never-never Land where you never have to think adult thoughts and I remember those days well. I just needed cheap sunglasses having misplaced my expensive ones and I need to cut the glare for my eyes and protect myself a little from these lovebugs having sex on my face. I know it's their season and all, but get a crack in a door of a room or somewhere a bit less intrusive. And two conversations behind my head are on the Sillyland Express going fast track to nowhere about young love, which is sweet in theory but being bastardized in verbage. I couldn't resist to ask "Who is John Gault"? - Ayn Rand in Atlas Shrugged - ziiippppidie doodaaa - to me for invoking a colossal and misguided literature missle to the solar eclipse archetypes. They miss daily sunrises and sunsets but are consumed by a moon that's only an alien observation post, and it's getting more and more common for me to wish for an abduction and To Serve Man is the book I find upon their spaceship, it's a cookbook. But capitalism isn't broken yet here and doesn't show signs of failure quite yet because my sunglasses are ten bucks with about seventy cents of tax. They're sturdy at the hinges and appear to be Costa del Mar-esq in style and lense coloration. I still love beach shops although this one isn't exactly near and beaches. The shell necklaces, shot glasses, red Lifeguard sweatshirts and tye dye as far as the eye can see. A fine shopping experience in the end of times here in Sarasota.
