Alona Beach Blahs

Alona Beach After Effects
Well , it will has been a week since the " old goat " visited Alona , the beach , not the girl . And , as much as i hate to admit it i have had the blahs . You know the blahs . The Monday morning work blahs , the back to everyday responsibility blahs , the 96 Fahrenheit - 35 - 36 Celsius blahs , the " sorry sir , out of stock , blahs .   :-)

They say a get away or holiday is good for you and should be a time of relaxation , fun in the sun ,a chance to  recuperate and  recharge and come home refreshed and renewed . Instead , i have felt a bit like the cartoon below . Just substitute the " old goat " for the dog and and have him drug away from the beach instead of toward it .

Have spent a week getting caught up on some tv shows i down load and follow , catching up on the latest news ( and gossip ) , reading about the latest airport fiasco and in general being lazy . And , a lazy " old goat " has too much time on his hands and is bound to " explore " in one way or another .

 Made one stop at  the " broken chicken " and naturally ran into someone that was fixing to vacation in the direction i just left . Geez, is there such a thing as a universal conspiracy ?   :-)
After having ruminated or " chewed the cud " in regards to my present state of existence after having done Alona i have decided that i have two options . Option one involves " getting over it " and burying Alona as a pleasant memory but the gal that got away . Option  two involves a bit more of a Don Quixote or Three Musketeer approach .
Option 1
Option 2
There are issues with both of the above options of course . Buried memories do tend to resurface and sometimes at the damnest times forcing us to do things we might best not do otherwise , And option 2 is best suited for the 20 or 30 something rather than the 60 something for sure .     :-)

On the other hand ...
