Hah... I guess you could say I am selfish. But then again? Who isn't? It jsut had to check it out, and in celebration of actually looking up not one, but -two- words in a dictionary, I posted them here. Pretty snazzy, huh?

Anyway... Had my first charter of the season yesterday- what a trip!! It was Tonys group- so of course we know that it was hilarious- George, Joel, Tony and some guy Dave they brought along- Insane!! I always have a great time with anyone Tony brings, but yesterdayw was especially fantastic! It started off not so great, what with it being cold (all day long) and really windy- can i jsut say I love how weather reports say 2-4 foot seas and 10 kt winds, and you get out there to 3-5 foot seas building and 30 kt winds? FANTASTIC!!!- and the rigs being kinda stuck in tubes from when dad got mad and shoved them in there without checking where the hooks were...

It ended up well, after all that. we caught 5 blues, all good eating-size fish, and two stripers about 15-20 pounds apiece. Everyone was happy, except Tony, who was sick from something the night before, and it was a good day. *Grin* The best part, by far, was the barbecue... haha Dad's workplace was having a partay for all the guests and customers and staff, so we stopped by on our way back and we all got to eat some hamburgers, hotdogs, etc... The guys got beer, I got soda! And Leis!! 3 of them! Red, Orange and YELLOW!!! Oh Oh OH!!!

Anyway... haha Nuff about that. Then I came home, watched Hitch, which is still a funny movie- I cracked up like I did in the theatre, kate!- and got in some quality computer time. haha

And now onto today! Which is blisteringly hott, no breeze in sight, and I'm attempting to hid out i nthe basement... My conscience is getting the better of me, even though my back is screaming... *pout* And I'm sunburnt. Like whoa! But only from the cheekbones up... How do you like that!?
