What's The Skinny?

I am going on a cruise in 3 weeks. I should be joyful about this and I am, except for my issues about my appearance. I will admit that I look good fully dressed. I am not too sure about my appearance in just swimming trunks however. I have been going to the gym, and I am seeing some results, but I'm not sure if I will ever achive the physique I so desire. I am afraid it is just not in my genetic plan. I may just have to settle for just being healthy, which is a good thing, but somehow just not enough. I spent the first part of my life being way too thin, and then once I was the proper weight I have spent the rest of the time feeling too fat. I just want a hot body!! Is that too much to ask??

In other news, I did a lot of lawn work this weekend. This is the first time I have owned a lawn and it is a lot of work to take care of one, yet it is worth it. My mom has been helping me fertilize the lawn, set up planters and plant bulbs. I am in the process right now of getting my garage and my basement all cleaned out, as the former occupents left all sorts of worthless junk in both places. I have enough various lawn and bug poisons and other chmicals to wipe out my whole town if I were to be so cruel and devious, which I am not.

I also must announce the arrival of Sonny and Cher, my two new parakeets. Their owner was relocating and they needed a home, so they have come to live with me! I love them, they are a lot of fun and very talkative, and I will try to post pictures of them this week, if I have time before I go to NYC for my friend Anna's wedding.

And so, I will repeat, when you come down, drop me a line. We will drink the beer and I will drive you insane.

Do you have my number? Same 718 number as always. I haven't moved. In fact, I barely get off the couch! Ha!

I believe I have it. What time do you get done with work on Friday?

Posted by: Adam at April 27, 2004 02:03 PM

THIS Friday? Probably around 5.

By the way, that's cool that you have 2 parakeets. I've always wanted parakeets or cockateils or a parrot or something.

E-mail me your work number, maybe we can meet for drinks Friday, or if that is not good Saturday night will be fine.
