All good things...

Well my BFF is back home in Ohio. Bummer. We had such a blast in the short time she was here. The first day it rained all day. Yuck! We still had fun. I picked her up and showed her my boat then went and got some food. We went to Bulldog Barbecue. Then it was off to the adult candy store (aka Total Wine and More). Since it was raining I decided to take her out on the town. We started drinking at my apartment then went to Duffy's to grab some dinner. After food and drinks we went to the Hard Rock Casino. She had never been to one before. What a great opportunity for me to pop her casino cherry! The Hard Rock in Hollywood is pretty awesome.

We met one of the guys I work with and his wife, brother and brother's girlfriend. Then we hit the slots. She wanted to start with something easy. I did pretty good for once. At one machine I had around 7 bucks then ended with 25. Of course I lost it all later. Jenni didn't do as good. Poor thing kept losing it all. Haha. After that I took her outside to where the dance clubs are. We walked by a few until this one caught out attention. It was playing some older music. We decided to go for it. It was a blast! The band was awesome! So were the people there. It's surprising. I kept telling her how mean people in Miami are and everyone we met that day was nice. Weird. Anyhow... I kinda called her out. I wrote the band a note and they announced it in front of everyone. It said: Jenni from Ohio down here visiting, recently divorced and single, ready to mingle" haha. That got her alot of attention. Haha. She gave me dirty looks, but she deserved to have some attention. We talked to a guy who looked like Pitbull's twin. After a few hours she hit that wall and it was time to go.

I made sure I was quite that next morning. Haha. Mostly because I wanted her to be able to get as much sleep as she needed. There is nothing wrong with sleeping in. Or at least I think so. Once she was up we spent the morning just relaxing on the balcony and soaking up some much needed sun. It ended up being a beautiful day! No rain, alittle windy, but the sun was out and it was warm. It made for a great tourist day. We ate at Shuckers. I knew she would like it because you could sit in the sun and be right by the water. Next I showed her Sector, then drove all the way up South Beach. It was the typical SoBe. We almost got ran over by two semis pulling onto the road, got to see a man walking his bunny (no seriously, a real bunny), all the crazy looking people, the mess of driving, and then we drove by the boat show. That was pretty amazing seeing all the nice boats. Then it was beach time. I stopped at Haulover Inlet. There was hardly anyone there so we were able to just walk along the beach and pick up shells. The water really wasn't that bad either. I was surprised it wasn't colder.


After about an hour or so at the beach it was time to do some shopping. Well souvenirs anyways. I bought some stuff for myself, but I also got some stuff for the girls too. I think they will enjoy everything. I wished they could have came down too, but Miami really isn't a good place for kids. Plus Mommy needed some time away to relax and be her again. Next time Jenni comes and visits, I will hopefully be in Cape Canaveral and the girls will have a better time there. So like all good things, the mini vacation had to end. Jenni flew home this morning and now I am lost without her. I miss her and can't wait till we met up again. This trip brought us close again  so I know we will still talk all the time, but it's just nice to be able to hang out together from time to time.

Now I kinda wished I worked today. I'm off my "best friend" high and I'm home alone. Just sitting here kinda bummed. But next week will be yet another busy (and most likely stressful) week. Oh joy...
