Again, let me apologize for the delay in updating the blog. I hope you can forgive me.  I made pancakes today. I made them for my nieces and nephew. They are on summer break and breakfast is more like 3pm or 4pm. (THAT'S DINNER!) 

Am I the only one that goes through this? I'm pretty sure I'm not. I need alone time. I'm not saying permanently. I mean a couple of days to clear my head. Let's be real. Who can live with someone without feeling any stress, arguments or lack of patience and compromise. I keep telling myself that I'm the bad guy for wanting to be by myself for a couple of days. But am I? NO! 

Was it the whole shopping for a car experience that took a toll on me? I remember I used to drive in the middle of the night to Corpus Christi beach (when it was nice and decent), and sit on the beach shore; let my feet get wet. Then, drive back. Corpus Christi is about two and a half hours from my home. I can't do that anymore. Not that I want to right now, bur I remember the freedom I had to be able to do that. 

I don't want to be away from family and friends. On the contrary, I would rather be around family and friends. I used to do this to family and friends too. Stay away for a while and clear my head. Or have a friend to hang out with or drive to Corpus beach. I have a lot of questions. I have a lot to say that I can't say here. 

Hopefully, we can wake up on a Sunday morning. Make coffee and pancakes and everything will be alright. 

Praying!! 

Thanks all!

What is it about New York that makes me want to go back? I've been at least twice and will visit again. I love the subway. It's like I time travel through all the movies I've watched that have taken place at the subway station: Warriors, King Kong, Ghost, the Matrix, etc. 

I know I can visit other places but I miss New York. MTV studio in Manhattan. The ferry ride to the Statue of Liberty is so relaxing. The rude people that are usually frustrated, because I don't know why. The hustlers selling things like music CDs; a picture with a Disney or animated character; and pamphlets for $1. What's on the pamphlet? Over 100 sex positions. 

I have seen  a lot in New York. The diversity of people from Germany, Cuba and other countries other than the South. I was also able to visit Ground Zero on its first anniversary. You can feel the grief as soon as you walked into the area. I have to look for the pictures. 

All I'm saying is New York is worth visiting.
