"I noted that the conveyance was much too large for its intended cargo. Its contents wobbled and jostled freely about within, like two tomcats fighting in a silk pillowcase. (think C cup on an A sized boob.)"

This line has me laughing out loud. After a tough week, thanks for the laugh.

Today I got up late (9:00) and went for a beach walk and swim (yes, I’m a creature of habit). Because I was two hours later than normal it was freakin’ hot on the way back down the beach. I had to re-lather three times from my likkle portable SPF30 bottle.

Saw the cock-sock dude again (can I say that?). I almost stopped and asked him, “What were you thinking when you packed that thing?” in my best Dr. Phil impression. I mean, it’s all floppy and wobbly. . . people behind him were snickering. One guy had taken a picture and was showing his wife and they were having a good laugh.

There’s a HUGE yacht anchored off Negril today – I’m talkin’ really big - like Arab Sheik sized. I’ll try and get a photo of it.

I went into Hi Lo and picked up a few things including a bottle of Red Stripe Light -Ginger. I wanted to try it. Also went to the Cambio and stocked up - (2nd time already! WTF?). I need the J$ cash because ‘you know who’ will be here late this afternoon and the burn rate is gonna go way up.

The weather here is crystal clear, with a light breeze, and it’s hot. I’m going on the Pub crawl in about an hour – looking forward to it.

Never thought of it as finding a groove, but know what you mean.

Oh the "pub crawl" I wish they would have back on realnegril again....this is fun reading, it makes my days go by a little faster until my trip

[poolguywindsor]

There was a picture on Facebook earlier of a white guy passed out in front of No Limit, hope it wasnt Kahuna3.

[irieworld]

ha ha I saw that pic on FB too! But I think it was posed--to take advantage of the signage "No Limit" and saying maybe there was a limit

[Kahuna3]

That FB photo of the guy Passed out at he No Limit bar wasn't me. . . but I was talking to that guy just before he 'passed out'.

I left the pub crawl (which was a blast!) early so that I could be back at the hotel when Fabs got there. I hung around the office for a while, then went to the rec. area and shot a couple of games of solo pool – I won both games.

I heard a bus pull up and went out to the driveway. I could see Fabs inside the bus. He yanked the sliding door open and yelled, “Hey Mon!” he yelled.
He looked as if he was stepping from the pages of GQ. He sported a crisp hairstyle and was smartly dressed – nothing outlandish – just everything he wore was casual, coordinated and complimentary. He had a bit of a tan from the ‘fake bake’ sessions, and I knew that he’d been dieting for the last month and going to the gym four times a week, doing his ‘beach-body’ workout. His teeth would be freshly bleached, his back, chest and eyebrows newly waxed, his nostril and ear hairs harvested, and his finger and toe nails spa mani-pedded.

He'd probably clipped and trimmed in other places too, but I’m not going to take you there.

As he stepped out of the van, Fabs was the poster-child for detailed, head to toe man-scaping.

Which was in stark contrast to me; it’s not that I don’t groom, I do – but it’s not the first thing I think of when I get up in the morning, especially when I’m in Negril. My tendency is to neglect my toenails. I’m six foot, two inches tall, so my toenails are a long way down – an out-of-sight and out-of-mind type situation. For me, the chore of clipping my toenails is somewhat like cleaning out the garage – a task that I’ll get around to . . . someday.

When I saw Fabs in all his resplendentry, I reached up and scratched at my two-day stubble.

There were a couple of young women, a blonde and a redhead (and I looove redheads) on the shuttle who pulled the windows open and waved goodbye to Fab’s, saying, “See you at Rick’s for sunset in two days.” So - Fabs had already been at work.

Fabs and I shook hands and did the one-armed, self-conscious, ‘hope-nobody-is-watching’, guy-hug thing.
After Fabs got all settled in his room, he came down to the beach where I was anchored, pinned there by a particularly strong concentration of beach-gravity. He’d sparked one up in his room as he unpacked and was all mellowed out. We hung out on the beach until sunset.

OK 'jeannieb', I've thought it over and decided to post a photo of Fabs:

Haha...Fabs has a strong resemblance to Matthew McConaughey LOL

[Guirigay]

That's funny Kahuna! Damn, Fabs might be the Sexiest Man Alive...
