    Oh darn...I hate when life grants those wishes, when you ask for them. This August 7th I leave the U.S. and fly to Rio De Janeiro and will be coming back late January or should time provide, mid March. I dread staying untill March, because of Carnival...I know, I know...terrible, absolutely terrible. To make things worse, I'm staying with in-laws who live 1 and 1/2 streets from Copacabana beach on the north end. I just don't know what to do...that sand just gets in to everything. Bare with me please, for it even gets worse...I already have a job teaching business students in advanced english 4 days a week. I mean, come on! What can one do for the remaining 3 days of the week in Rio? I'm perplexed...confused. Can you feel my pain?

    My wife will be staying in the U.S. and will come visit me and her family in December for 3 weeks, so we will be apart for nearly 5 months. That will be tuff. So...come August, I'll still be posting occasionally. I've invested (finally) in getting a digital cam and will post pictures, so you may empathize with my feeling the hot sun beating upon my shoulders. That you may, share the tears in my eyes as I resist the tempting warm water of the Atlantic ocean. I've got to share my pain, don't I?

    Aaah hell....I'm excited.

    I could leave July 28th...but, I arranged it so I'd leave Aug. 7th so I can attend Princess & Family's apostofest. I need SOME good memories before leaving to Boca de Inferno.

    Be careful. It has one of the highest incidences of AIDs in the world, or so I heard on TV. There is always a fly in the pie somewhere.
