Lazy Days while Joyce Works

Monday Jan 19th 7:06 pm AST St Croix Well we have been here for 3 days..While Joyce is ashore slaving on her Dive Instructor Course the Capt has been lying low. Recovery from the Battery Olympics has been slow. For the last 2 days ...complete slug...have done nothing physical.. pain levels have been down except in the AM..Made a pot of gumbo yesterday,,,,not bad...even better today. Today I started the day with 1/2 percocet....was a nice day; except got nothing done...internet was pissy...had to refresh the wireless interface anytime I wanted something to happen. Bummer living on free internet. Joyce left me with a pot of hot tea....(still have a little Kidney stone thing if I don't drink enough fluids...and the reminder in the early AM ..I could go on to why the am...screw it...but followed instructions to go heavy on the water. ) Decided to get a month of low level Graboid to get current with out TV favorites. Due to internet speed....simple things take an hour. By noon I wanted to listen to Rush...very spotty...5 min on ....2 off unless I refreshed the connection.....Just think..we took Matt to Bushes inaugural 8 yrs ago. Too cool...last I was at was Kennedy's back in 1960. Now I would rather watch cartoons than this fisasio. When the country is hurting money wise this clown spends 2x as Bush on his party......and the Balls...they ride high wile the country tightens its belt. Heard today that he plans to increase jobs with his 800 billion to 1 trillion stimulus package. He was going to increase jobs by x million....someone put the numbers together....each job was going to cost the taxpayer $ 171,000. Now that is change!!We are going to pay some Mexican illegal to fix our roads, give his family free health care, put them in government housing, educate his children, enroll them in our failing Social Security system at the taxpayers expense: so he can get reelected in 4 yrs. And now you wonder why I plan to be out of the country for the next few yrs. Sorry..OFF THE SOAPBOX .Joyce will get some pics and other news when she gets time...in 8 days...
So far the Instructor Course has been a killer....she gets back to the boat about 5pm...whooped..and then has to put in 3-4 hrs of bookwork....me I get to have a few cold ones and watch the tube...you guys will have to wait for her update
