Does South Carolina really close at 10pm?

When we last left the Crazy Black Man he was in heavy contemplation on what how he should take this blog....

I think I've come to a decision...The first thing I am going to do is start writing more than a couple times a month. This could possibly mean that it would cut my talk time at night or put a halt to my "quiet time" after work, but I think it's best. I've actually been missing this, and the comments I used to bet as they would start very interesting conversations. It made me come out of my box and think about things I would have never dared bring up.

The next thing I'll do is start discussion current events and issues that are important to me. As I have been reading Ricki's blogs it makes me realize there is so much out there to examine and spread to the world. I know I am one voice, but lots of people have moved mountains..so why not me??

Isn't it awesome when a plan comes together??

Anyway, last week about this time K and I were on our way to Savannah en route to Myrtle Beach for some MUCH NEEDED R&R. The trip wasn't as bad as I thought. I remember her telling me once before that she didn't like being in the car for long periods at a time, so I was glad that she drove so we didn't have to worry about that.

Thursday came and we continued our trip to MB-SC. I got a chance to meet her friends. As with any first meet it can be slow to get to know them, but I think we all hit it off after drinks..plenty of them.. :) We walked around and went a really cool aquarium that is sponsored by Ripley's. We had a blast in there and I got to pickup creatures..which is always fun. Since we had no camera...no pics of the black man. Dinner was fun as we did Hibachi and then off to a bar for drinks and darts..and more drinks..and more darts...then it was time to leave so I had to steal a nice glass... :)

St. Patty's Day was rough for me to get going because of the night before, but we did some pretty cool things. Going to a haunted house and playing mini-golf forever was a nice change of pace instead of drinking til I puked. I think K liked it too cause she didn't have to take care of me.

Saturday was travel day back to Tally, but we stopped in Darlington, SC..so I could go to "The Mecca". Darlington is where the first "Super Speedway" of NASCAR was born, so of course I had to stop. I know K hates NASCAR (or NECKCAR as she calls it), but she was a good sport and humored me as I took pictures and she took pics of me in Victory Lane and other places around the track. I had a blast.

Bojangles is without a doubt the best fast food place in the world..'nuff said.

Sunday was sad as I had to see her go, but then I knew there was so much to do here I had no time for tears...and I've been busy ever since.

This weekend I was planning to go to Tampa, but my plans have changed, so I'll have to adjust it a week. Please say a prayer for Vic and his family...they need the good vibes.

I was going to rant on a subject that's near and dear to my heart, but after talking to my GF it doesn't really seem that important now, so I will end it here for tonight.

Take care of yourself and tell someone you care about you love them. You never know if it's the last time.

I love you all...even the one I hate.

Later.
