Christmas Eve

I've realized that I'm not very good at just chilling and doing nothing. Over the past few days I've tried to convince myself that I don't need to be doing something all the time, that vacation is a time for doing NOTHING. Well doing nothing is not working. I am supposed to be reading some books but I can't even sit and do that.

So instead of tripling my crazy meds (I've already doubled one of them), I decided to book a trip for Xmas Day. I am taking a river trip up to Lamanai, one of the largest Mayan sites in Northern Belize. I am very excited about this, because:
  1. I've been wanting to go there, but was holding off because of the money
  2. Saying "fuck it" about the money feels pretty damn good
  3. I will have a PLAN for Christmas, and it won't feel like such a loner Christmas
  4. It will be cool to see it

As well, the day after, I have a trip planned to go snorkeling with manatees. I love manatees. Slow, benevolent, peaceful creatures. I hope I get to see one.

And now, off to find cigarettes!

    Doing nothing is a good thing. I'm glad you guys can do that.

    It's easier for me if I'm with someone, and alcohol always helps. Speaking of alcohol...
