* whew *

me not dead,
yet
.
..
'tis 9:30 am
Jamaica time

thursday was a rough-day
for me
'cause
as you remember
i had been up all night

but i survived
.
.
the birthday thing-y
was cool
...a intimate likkle gathering with
some of that yummy-yummy Jamaica-style cake
with ice-ing

there's *something8 about the sugars, flavorings, ingredients, etc that they use down here that makes things taste soooooooooo much better/different, than what i'm *familiar* with.

down-side of the birthday party:::>>> it was on ""soon-come"" time
:-(
.
.
i was TOLD 3 pm
...didn't happen 'til 'bout 5:45 pm

* sigh*

this 'soon-come' thing takes a while to get use to
..in short, for the most part, in most instances,
it's not about when it happens
but
that it DOES happen.

* sigh *
.
requires a bit of *adjustment8 for this from-foreign old-man
.
.
.
this thread will be a rambling thing-y...
.....going with the flow
..............chilling today
...................catching my *breath* [[[ figuratively speaking ]]]
