Random Thoughts

I woke up to rain pounding the roof of my cabin and a strong desire to pee. Unfortunately for my soaked self, the bathroom was 50 yards away. Outside. Boo.

I just checked the weather forecast...we get a lot of rain here in Hana (usually every night, and morning and late afternoon/early evening is common), but the forecast says it is supposed to rain every day. Day. Not night or morning. It only showed until next Wednesday...I'm hoping for some sun, but the future does not look bright. Oh, duh. It's rainy season.

We took some cuban red bananas last night and tried to make yummy plantains with butter and brown sugar--miserable failure. I can bake, and grill a freakin' awesome steak, but I suck at cooking. Their gooey mushiness would probably taste awesome on ice cream, but that's not really any sort of success.

My loaves of banana bread are being weird, not baking like their usual selves--i think it's the humidity. Bleh.

I'm going to try and go to the bank today and open an account...they only have Bank of Hawai'i here, and sending wads of cash through the mail to my sister doesn't sound appealing.

I miss bartending. I miss doing shots with my regulars (and my fellow employees/managers). I miss talking about Irish whiskey, and how expensive a shot of MacCallan 30 is (47$!). I almost bought a bottle of Jameson last night and was going to sit around and watch a movie and get wasted. I went running instead--how good am i?!

I am looking at flights to SF and New York right now...i miss both of those cities terribly and wouldn't mind shelling out some hard earned cash to visit either one...I was also wondering if I went back to SF if they would let me guest bartend at the Chieftan for a day (I would totally work for tips! hee he).

I just bought myself a birthday present today, this awesome sterling silver necklace with mother of pearl...it's sweet. Happy birthday to me!

My sister comes out on Saturday for four days--I CAN'T F***ING WAIT! Woooo hoooo! She is the best ever and i think we are actually going to be able to go to the other side and party...who knows, maybe have a night out?! God, I can't wait...

Tomorrow is my day off....should be nice...i try to spend every Friday at Red Sand beach...perhaps my favorite spot in Hana. Love it.

Well, I have lots of other random thoughts, but I'll keep them to myself for now...hope you all are well, and whoever comes to visit me first (besides family) gets a prize! hee he...no, really, i'm not kidding, hurry up and get out here! :)
