Bodies… And in Puerto Rico!
Now, if you’ve never flown to PR before, there are some serious differences on the flight that you may not expect. For one thing, it’s A LOT louder. People don’t try to hold private conversations, or discourage children from crying, yelling, running down the aisle, or the like. Instead, it’s a freakin’ free for all. Children yelling, people shouting as though in their own private livingrooms, baby laden women clogging the aisle, “dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!”
The best part is the landing; no doubt. I’ve never seen this done on a flight anywhere else: the minute the plane hits the runway, the entire cabin begins to cheer wildly. It’s like, were they expecting us to crash? It’s all very endearing…
I was excited to discover this morning that Bodies: The Exhibition, is now here in San Juan! In case you’re not familiar with this exhibit, it is a look into the human body and has been on display down by South Street Seaport in NYC for some time now. Some find it grotesque, as the exhibition features real human bodies and organs that have been dissected to the most minute detail, rubberized, then reassembled; allowing access to sights and knowledge normally reserved only for medical professionals. It makes me wonder if there will be any difference between the New York and Puerto Rico exhibits. Maybe the bodies in PR will be slighly darker: el color de canela!
Being so far away from the recent unpleasantness (more on this below) has proven greatly beneficial. At first I was afraid, I was petrified (kept thinking I could never live without you by my side, thanks Gloria Gaynor). But then I started really thinking about it. The fact is, to say that I was miserable at my former position is the understatement of the cench(ury). And since I have a reasonable amount of experience and motivation, I’m not going to sweat just yet. I’m going to go after something I actually want to do…take over the world, etc.

WOOOO! Join the ranks, kid. First though, have an utter blast in Puerto Rico. I’m sure you were planning to do that anyway and don’t need my endorsement, but, you know, just sayin’. Take the next few days to decompress and chill out and settle into your situation.
For me, well, it took me a good three months to come to grips with my laid-off, I’m-part-of-the-shittiest-statistic-ever-staticized status. But, after the bullshit came the great realization that I have a lot of time to do anything that I want, to build my resume in whatever way I want by gaining the experience I know I’ll need, AND I can get some fucking sleep.
Good luck with everything. You’ll be fine. In fact, you’ll probably be better than fine. Run with it.

Enjoy the week off and the sun, you deserve it. I can think of at least four or five other songs for you to sing instead of Gloria Gaynor. Not only will you be fine but I want to be around when you take over the world. Kisses!!!!
