My need for a vacation is growing, it's directly related to the heat index in Sarasota and inversely proportional to the work getting done at MPYD. At least at home things are looking good, as time ticks by and the status quo is maintained. I tried in vain to read more Dave Barry but instead spent a loooong time on the phone talking with Jenelle and then the folks at home, all of whom made me jealous with their tales of balmy weather and fun activities. People accuse me of not getting into the Sarasota scene, and perhaps they are right, but I just fail to see the attraction in many of the attractions here. Where's the college campus, the sports team, the accessible culture? Not here, that's for sure, and even if it were it'd be too darn warm to go and visit anyway.
