Things are settling down here in Florida. I can only say so much about my sudden locale change, but I'm working right now and looking to attend UCF in the spring to finally finish school.

I learned to sail and I try to go out on the sunfish as much as possible. I live on the Banana River , part of the Indian River Lagoon , and I see dolphins swim through everyday. Unfortunately, dolphins still make me a little nervous (unless I'm on a big boat) and I try to avoid them as much as possible when I sail. I'm working on it, but for now when I see one (or more, they usually travel together) breach, I steer the opposite direction.

(Fun fact: 1/3 of the manatees native to the U.S. are in the Indian River Lagoon.)

The newest addition to my music library is Diane Birch.

She reminds me a bit of (a modernized) Carole King. Check her out on the Craig Ferguson Show . Then if you like her, swing over to Amazon and download her debut album, Bible Belt , for only $5.00!
