Hot and muggy
Wow the temperature around here is getting hot! The humidity is so high as well.
At times despite the heat I have had the urge to get up and exercise. I try and wait till the evening at least, but I have started running again. After 5 weeks of not doing any running at all I have lapsed somewhat, but I thought I did pretty well considering the heat and humidity. After the run my foot was bothering me, so the healing is still not complete.
Summer semester is over. I did well in my Macroeconomics class. I am not positive that I got an A. I was at 92% before the final, but the final is 1/3 of the grade, so a few too many wrong and I will drop down to a B. Either way it is one class down and 12 more to go before I complete my Associates in Applied Science (Accounting) degree. I am taking 2 of the 12 in the fall semester plus a beginner Japanese class just for fun.
Now that classes are over for a few weeks I am taking a vacation the second week of August. I have kinda aimed at driving down to Florida and doing some sight seeing. This should be interesting as I have never really done anything like this before. All my previous vacations I would spend the week lounging around the house not really doing anything. Now I plan on doing a little snorkling, lounge at the beach doing some people watching, maybe do a bit of shopping, try some local food. I hope to summon enough courage to stop by a few bars and mingle with people while I am there. I might get a bit wild and stop in at a barber and get a trim, maybe even a shave. I think to get the most out of my vacation I will need to interact with people and maybe with the location being so far from home that I will likely never see any of them again it should be easier to deal with them. No repercussions with having to deal with them in the future.
On the other hand, I just noticed GenCon is running like the 11th to 13th, the last part of my vacation. I almost feel like attending GenCon instead, but I feel like that would be shirking the unknown, the uncertainty which is to tell the truth kinda fightening to me. I think if I go to GenCon, the most I will do is make a stop on the way home on Sunday.
I am looking forward to my vacation as it feels like this will be my first real vacation. No being hauled around with the rest of the family, rather I am free to do anything that I want.
