Wow. Wall Street Journal.

Found myself today quoted on the Wall Street Journal.

I was quoted and I didn't even know it.

I should google myself more often.

I was helping someone at work and showed them how to google their screen name.

Wow. There I was. Between William Gray and Max Mayfield ..

Funny. Nice. Thanks.. whoever it is that reads my blog or googles me.

Funny thing is that I figured out the answer to my fortune cookie riddle.

A while back I got a fortune cookie that said.. "you will soon meet someone you admire"

Silly me.. I didn't think it meant romantically .. I figured it meant.. "hero" and oddly I realized that I pretty have met or know everyone I admire.

Well.. I didn't ever officially meet Neil Frank.

I've been to the Hurricane Center and met a lot of important people. I have met most people I respect in other ways. I'm not a big star freak like "movie star" and there aren't any big politicians I admire ..sadly...these days.

I thought on it.. maybe Billy Wagner :)

Who would do me if I met them? Willie Nelson? Maybe.

Realized to meet and talk to Jimmy Buffett would be cool. Really cool.

Truth is.. I was there when he started way back at the FLICK in Coral Gables. Used to go with my boyfriend and watch him perform. Saw him a few years back somewhere and realized it was him.

Why do I admire him? He has made a career out of being Jimmy Buffett. He is an original. Living life the way he wants and recording his thoughts through songs.

He is the original blogger of music. His songs tell the story of his life, his dreams, failures and many fantasies.

Jimmy Dreams...

Red Sox fan and weather fan and he loves Key West..

Anyway..nothing much happening tropically although there are some rumblings on models.

The 5pm Tropical Update had more words than usual so something is possibly happening. Can you imagine if I wrote it? lol.

I gave notice today at work. Two weeks. Starting a new job in July. In a library and close enough to the Ocean that if there is a storm out there I can walk over on my lunch break and watch the waves come onshore.

My brother Jay is coming in from Greece this July and I'll see him for the first time in a long time.

My son Shuky is in Israel watching the tropics and posting online.

And.. I am on record with the Wall Street Journal as to my thoughts on the 2006 Hurricane Season..

Time Will Tell

So, so true.

Making dinner. One daughter wants tuna pasta, one son wants hamburgers, one daughter told them both to get up off their expleted parts of their bodies and cook it themself cause Mommy is tired :)

Great kids.. so independent and spunky.
