I'm out of town on a business trip. I'm thousands of miles away from Kenny and my boys. And yes... I could be hanging out with the group of people at this conference. But I'm not. I'm not socially inept, far from it. I was out last night, and I must say I'm tired of dealing with man after man trying to get into my panties. I'm tired of avoiding the woman who ate something at lunch that she should not have eaten and had spent all day farting right behind me.
I'm tired of telling the lesbian who keeps showing up at my room in negligee that I'm not interested.
And I got tired of people trying to get me drunk.
So, I'm in my room hiding from the madness. I love traveling, but I'm not a road warrior. I can't live in hotel rooms. I don't know how Nick got used to this way of life.
I miss the boys and I miss Kenny especially tonight as I sit here watching the coverage of Michael Jackson's death.
Life is fleeting. We cannot hold on to it. We can only live it. Live it hard, live it fully. At this conference coincidentally, I've been hammered with that message for the past two days. Life and death.
And I want to go home and see my boys. Life has it's own agenda. I know that.
lonely hotel rooms. i know the feeling too well. big hugs!

I know exactly what you mean:live life hard, live life full.
Thats the best advice.
Greatness has left the planet - and that's the truth.
RIP Michael.
Take care Kitten x

Hide away from the madness to keep your own sanity..
Always the sensible option..

Life really is fleeting. We spend so much time complaining about stuff that we hardly stop to appreciate.
