Oh man..... I'm in Oman!

Hellooooooooo! Well, I did it, after 14 hours of air travel I'm in the middle east. I have to keep this short because I pulled a 'Henrick' (I left my laptop charger in the states). So a couple of things; If you ever get the chance, fly Etihad airlines, do so at once! The flight, accommodations, and everything about it was was wonderful. I'm in a hotel tonight and everyone here is extremely helpful and nice. The food is very good!!! It tastes like a combination of Indian/Mediterranean food (their version of Hummus though is not as flavorful as the Mediterranean versions. Well, I totally miss my Dog!!!! leaving Anika was a heart-wrenching experience. Leaving was extremely stressful, and I almost chose to not fly and instead get thrown in jail for trying to kill the cab driver who was suposed to take me to the airport! I have some photos, nothing really to cool yet but whatever. The money here is very pretty. It hasn't sunk in yet what is exactly what so its like having dollars and monopoly money in my wallet at t he same time. Oh yeah its HOT here right now (height of the Summer)! The climate and terrain are not too far off from where I lived in AZ (though thank God it is nowhere near as hot as it was in Yuma [120 + all sumer]) so yeah... I will try and get a new power adapter and see what happens... tomorrow I get shown my place and get checked in to my new accommodations (which is said to be between 1200-1500 square fett!!!)... Well for all those concerned, I got here OK and for now, all is well. I love and miss you all... please send pictures (especially if you're hot, female and single [or two out of three will do].... till next time. Oh yeah the money all has the picture of 'this guy' on it (probably a talk show host or famous carnival barker!!!!) I'm calling him 'Sparky'! He's my new friend and I talk to him everytime I look in my wallet (there's always a bunch of him looking back at me with that lucid pacific smile, how relaxing). OH WELL, until next time..C"mon sparky, let's go to the BAR!!!

Here I am

Anybody who wonders, I got here in one price. Left at 11 am pm sun.
Spent 13 hours in the air and now I'm in Abu dhabi waiting for my
plane to take off to Muscat (Oman). From what I can make out, the UAE
is the balls talk to you all about it later, time to turn cells off
bye!!!

The Aquarium

New England Aquarium

As explained in a prior post, yesterday I funally made it to the New England Aquarium. If you have not been there and like things of that sort, I highly recommend it. Its FUN! I've been trying to go and literally have made it as far as the front doors , but have never actually set foot inside. This has been going on for the last 4 years I have been in Boston. I am seriously indebted to my friend Jill for actually making it all happen. When we got there, there was a line. At this point I wanted to go home (we all know how impatient I can be and that I 'm a 'instant gratification' knid of a guy). I think she actually made me sit in the line (which was really long but only a twenty minute line at most). Needless to say, I (and I would say 'we') had a great time the exibits are cool and the main tank is a lot of fun and very enjoyable. Well I'm going to upload the photos from it now and link it up on Picasa. I hope everyone (even though I was convinced I had no readers (how did Jenn find out about my blog, I thought I didn't tell anyone!)) like the pics.
Gotta run and get on the whole 'packing, planning, and nervously pacing' thing.

Cheers!!!!

Crazy last days in Boston

Hey all!! Well it's ties and there's a lot going on. Today I'm doing
something I'd threatened to do since I got to Boston 4 years ago! I'm
going to the aquarium!!!! Yeah!!!! I can't really take credit for it
though, my friend Jill is truly the impetus behind this. I managed to
not make it on a rolllercoaster though, well can't have it all I
guess. I'm leaving on Sat. The logistics of which are still not fully
worked out, but I'm sure that it will work itself out. Also have a
shit-ton of work left to do on the harvatd bringham womens project,
that's keeping me up at night, it's gonna takes little midnight oil
burning to get that out but whatever I'm sure it'll get done... I am
really psyched to be going back to ny next week and see all the
original cast of this crazy 'soap-opera' which I call my life. Bit
more about that some other time... Gotta run (train just pulled into
forest hills... Mobile blogging rules!!!)
