I'm so bored again (sung to the rhythm of "On the Road Again")

This hurry up and wait game is brutal! After having more than a month of steady, if mind-numbing, activity, I’m back to having little to nothing to do.

Check whether houses in the neighborhood have sold, read Washington Post, read NY Times, read about Virgin Islands, read friend's blogs, do a little work, eat lunch, remember personal errands and do them, read more internet, do a little more work, walk around, do the hokey pokey and turn myself around, is it 5:15 yet?

This picture is really cool, though. I can’t wait to see one in 16 DAYS!

What the heck is that? And how big? It's actually pretty cool.

It's a squid - you'll see LOTS of them, I promise, ranging in size from a couple inches to maybe a foot.

The coolest part is when they cycle through camoflage color variations - it looks like they are flashing a million different colors in rapid fire succession.

Think calamari!

can we eat them? maybe pan fry a bunch w/ some garlic for a calamari appetizer?

If you can catch them... I think they are a bit fast though.

Come to think of it.. I have no idea how they catch squid for calamari. Fish and shrimp and crabs and lobsters and clams and oysters and mussels, I know.

Squid - I have no idea.
