Well other than the fact that Costa Rica has some of the most beautiful women in the world, I just love living here.

While the rest of the world worries about terrorism, Costa Ricans fret over who will win the Soccer game tonight between Costa Rica and the U.S. My best bud Gregg invited me to go out tonight (I think he feels sorry for me because I have been alone for the last 7 days - hehe..), anyway, not sure if I am going. He has not called to confirm yet, and going out with Gregg can be dangerous for a married man.

You see Gregg insist on going to places where women like the one on the left hang out at. Friendly... very friendly, versions of her. And after seven days alone, and last week's bachelor party... Eh... Let's just say, "Lead me not into temptation."

What I am in the mood for is a good steak, or perhaps some good seafood. One of my favorite seafood places in Costa Rica has a great plate called the "Mariscada," or sea food fountain.

Instead, knowing Gregg, we will probably end up at someplace like this. (NSFW) Hehe.... Not that I am complaining... Much...

You know, the more I watch CNN and the coverage of the Rove thing, the more I realize just how lucky I am to live here. I mean it is ridiculous watching Right Wingers spin the issue. Now some idiot Right Wing Talk show host has decided that this issue is just not important to the American People...

Interesting, considering that at the moment, there are over 43,000 post being tracked on Technorati on the Rove issue, and over 8,000 on Valerie Plame... Seems to me there is a lot of interest pal.

I miss my family. It's always nice when they go up to the family farm for a few days. It gives me a breather from my kids, allows me to work late without getting harassed by the wife, and of course, gives me the opportunity to hang with my buddy Gregg until ungodly hours of the morning. But after about five days I start missing them, and the house seems oh so lonely.

The funny thing is, my health goes to shit while they are gone. I eat poorly, smoke too much, and don't get enough sleep. Besides that, I need a vacation myself.

My wife is always ragging on me to go to the farm with them. I don't think I could handle it if I did. I mean ME... without an Internet Connection? It was bad enough when I was working on the project at Pension Santa Elena, at least until we put in the wireless network there. But the bottom line... INSECTS... Yeah that's right, Insects, you ever seen Costa Rican Bugs? Let's just say Spielberg chose Costa Rica as a setting for Jurassic Park for a reason! And the location of our Farm is famous for two things, heat and bugs!

So for the time being, I think I will stick to the city, have myself a nice tall glass of Iced Tea, and watch CNN in my bug free (for the most part), house!
