Enjoy Jake.
You wuss. The humidity ? I want a second opinion.
82-T/A [At Work], your thoughts ?
Texas City is right on the Gulf of Mexico. The humidity would be higher there. How could it be much different than Florida ? You get acclimated to anything.

The Gulf airstream Cliff, is different in Fla than on the Tx coast. I've lived in Fla and of course Tx. Tx Gulf Coast humidity is higher than Fla for sure. Humidity in the Houston area (including Texas City and here where I live) is higher than further south down the Tx coast too. IMO, none is worse than South Louisiana tho. One big sauna. Or at least the parts of the environment that humans feel.

My sister really has her heart set on me staying close to Ohio. Honestly the last three years I don't know what I would have done without her. But I do have to live my life I've been living my life for everyone else it's time to start focusing on myself. I really love Florida but there's a lot of bad memories down there. Honestly I don't hate it here in Indiana I just don't know anyone. If I had a good group of friends then perhaps things would be different but I'm just here alone and people are not as friendly here as they are in Florida. So I'm going to go spend a couple weeks in Florida and try to make a decision.

Can't say I really understand that...
In Miami and Fort Lauderdale, it's incredibly humid... I mean, the second you step out of your house you become wet. A walk from the front door to your driveway, and you'd already have sweat beading down off your forehead... even if you're in excellent shape and very thin.
Miami never gets too hot... I think that's the big difference. Miami always has a cool breeze off the ocean, and regularly sits around 85-90 during the Summer.
South Florida has higher humidity than Texas does during the Winter, but apparently not during the Summer.
Hard to imagine humidity worse than South Florida, but I guess it's so. Here in San Antonio, I'm still wearing jackets some mornings...
But... as soon as my family moves down and I finish the house, I'm going to start checking out the state.. rather than just going back and forth to work, hitting Home Depot, and then random Mexican restaurants. Not much of a life...
So how is this for a curveball I met a beautiful woman Closer to my age I'm really trying to be cautious But things are moving really fast In the short time I've known her she is uplifted my spirits more than anyone I've ever known She lives in Chicago And is currently in London Taking care of her father's final arrangements I'm going to go pick up Monday at the airport and we're gonna spend a couple of days together So get out of the way now Tell me I'm making a mistake Get out of your system Do whatever you do but I have real feelings for this woman
So for those of you that don't have that in your heart Wish me luck this could be the one There's a reason The universe put me here this could be it

I will reserve judgement. Does she look like the woman in this clip ...

One was very close lol I dropped the last one last night. Turned out to be less than she portrayed and I ended it last night. I pity the next guy she latches on to but I am done.
Florida here I come. Will post some pictures when I get there. Perhaps if the weather is right one of those sprinters will slow down long enough for me to catch one of them.

Do that. I was there in March for a few weeks. Lake City, Zepherhills, Tampa/St Pete/Clearwater, Ft Walton Beach. It was a workcation (yeah I just made up that word), it was not a vacation.
I went to Broward Elementary school, Tampa. My Dad was born there.
You really are going at the wrong time of the year. Smart people go in the winter so they don't have to shovel snow, .

Thanks Cliff I just want to be warm again lol I don't know if I will be staying or just a nice visit. Hard to tell right now. Have to work on that
I am not going to lie, I got lucky. I Love my Wife. It took me until I was 42 to find her, but the fun I had along the way...
Speaking of that fun, I wanted to warn you about your last hot mess that you described. I had a feeling. No, not a leftist anarchist feeling, but one of caution. Eh, I am part psychic.
Choices my man. Run with the right ones, and absolutely forget the crap ones. Not what others tell you, but what you tell you. Even my pipings here should mean little to what you choose to accomplish. I know that you got this, but just want to remind you.
Speaking of fun... A fun ugly guy gets laid much more than a good looking bore. Go ahead, ask me how I know. (I am a mess, but what a fun mess I am!)
I know everyone thinks I lost my mind. I don't regret the last year and half. I got to be a father to a very sweet little girl and I wouldn't take that back for anything. I do wish things would have gone different but that's life. Perhaps if she grows a little bit more she will realize what we could have had and even if she isn't with me she will find a good man. I miss Serenity so much. That has proven to be the hardest part. I loved her mother but I am finding that fading fast but I will always love my little Serenity.

Same age it took me to find Jane. I won't say it was a fun trip, because it was very rough for extended periods of times, but the eventual destination made it worthwhile. Glad to see you have found happiness..I know you too had a rough journey. We, like most, have 'lived in interesting times'.

That we have. Sadly Stephanie has a boyfriend and we just enjoy talking. There are several older girls there that I can just sit and talk to. They do not have any expectations except to feed me and bring me beer. But I do have a couple dates lined up but just for fun no relationships planed anytime soon. It has been interesting, I did shave and will probably not grow the beard back for now. Still haven't decided if I am going to stay here or move again. Don't have to rush so I am not going to. But I will make that decision when its the right time. Have to let some things go and meeting people and having fun is helping. We were happy for a moment now the moments gone and I have to wish them well and find a way to move on.

If I have offended you I apologize. You really have no idea who I am. Thanks to my friends who have reached out. One day at a time. I will try to be a little more positive but until then **** you that's why.
I feel sorry for that little girl.. Another child that will not have a family unit.. Are you at least going to support it, or is that why you ran...
I would do anything for this little girl. She was my life. If her mother called to day I would step up. Her mother stopped all contact. She is not my blood or she would be with me now. I stayed a month hoping for a call that never came. Yes I left Indiana because there's nothing I can do. My heart is broken and serenity makes it a hundred times more painful. Seriously you have no idea what you're talking about
When her biological father did absolutely nothing for them I'm the one that made sure Serenity got to see a doctor. When she needed food I fed them when they needed a place to stay I put a roof over their head when they needed a safe car I provided that as well. I did everything I could for Tiana and serenity. Including leaving them alone when it was apparent that is what she wanted. She's now living with some other guy and he driving the truck that I gave to Tiana. You have no idea what it's like to wake up one morning and have your family ripped away from you. So before you reply please take a minute because I'm not going to be nice again

My family is available for adoption, including me.

You're a good guy. Perhaps a bit too much of a soft touch, but that's okay. Just cover your ass at all times.
I wish you well. Nuck the faysayers.
Going back to Ohio for my family reunion. Her mother agreed to let me stop in Indiana and see serenity. It'll give me a chance to say goodbye at least there's that
Life is complicated I've had a job offer and I'm taking it very seriously But it's going to mean going back to Indiana I don't know how I feel about that yet but I got a meeting on the 28th I like the idea of being close to my family My divorce was Final on the 16th It's time to move on and have definitely have my fill of Florida I don't know what's going to happen between me and Tiana we're talking again but I just don't know but the job offer is too good to let go it will give me an opportunity to be close to my family There is definitely nothing left here in Florida for me in fact complications have made it very clear that I shouldn't stay here I guess I'm just putting it down in writing thanks for listening
Best wishes Jake, good luck, even thought I do not believe in either.
I can not believe I am moving. Who stole my Man Card ?
Hang in there. Just when you think it can get any worse, it will. It can also get better.
Listening is easy hearing is my problem :-) We all ever challenges sometimes they tear us down to where there's nothing left and we have nothing to do but start over
You've been set up one too many times The perfect victim for the perfect crime You left yourself wide open to the pain So close your eyes now You're out walkin' in the rain You've got a burning desire to be the victim You're bleeding from the soul You're hurting from the heart Things you can't be told are gonna tear you apart
Your choice of lovers, never very bright Your father worried, but even he gave up the fight You always think their hearts are made of gold And you're the savior, to coax the warmth out of the cold
You've got a burning desire to be the victim You're bleeding from the soul You're hurting from the heart Things you can't be told are gonna tear you apart Cause you're the victim
Break the pattern, you've gotta break away Break the pattern before it gets too late
You've got a burning desire to be the victim You're bleeding from the soul You're hurting from the heart Things you're never told are gonna tear you apart Cause you're the victim
I heard you say you're feelin' like a change now Maybe, baby this could be arranged now But I warn you that no exotic scenery Will solve your problems or make you feel easy You say you're happy, but I see apprehension That little laugh of yours doesn't hide the tension The precious photo you clutch so tightly in your hands Won't help you sleep at night, won't iron out your plans
You gotta fight it out with your heart You got to fight it, though it tears you apart You got to fight it out, my friend You got to do it for yourself You got to say when
You ask advice, then resent my observations If I didn't care, then I wouldn't make them Can't change the past, so why let it haunt you Can paint the future, but first you have to want to
You gotta fight it out with your heart You got to fight it, though it tears you apart You got to fight it out, my friend You got to do it for yourself You got to say when
I can see how much you hurt inside I know all about the tears you hide
You gotta fight it out with your heart You got to fight it, though it tears you apart You got to fight it out, my friend You gotta fight it out with your heart You got to fight it, though it tears you apart You got to fight it out, my friend
You know that the lonely pay a price for love in the end You know that the lonely pay a price for love in the end It's always the lonely who pay a price for love in the end
.
Quit being a dick.
