Day 60 - Conclusions

Dear wife-o-mine,

I have come to the conclusion that there are very few things in life that are worse than conference call wait music. It's interminable. They never play anything good either. How come they never play any Whitesnake, or Foreigner? Or even songs that have words in them? I'd much rather skip the call than listen to that music again. Or have people that show up on time. That'd be nice too.

I've also come to the conclusion that you are awesome. Want to know how I know that? I get lines like this:

(1:22:12 PM) Jessi Egger: i'm rocking these thank you cards.

But then you dash my hopes by saying things like this:

(1:22:57 PM) Jessi Egger: no worries.....you'll get to do some too!

No, go rock some more! Rock out! Rock the night away! Don't you remember that I have terrible penmanship? I don't even know what a pen is. Continue to rock, wifey, don't leave me disappointed.

(Just kidding, I'll do my fair share: 6 of them).

Love,
Husband

Day 56

Dear Jess,

You know what they say, better late than never to start a project. Or maybe that's just my saying.

So what's happened in the last 8 weeks? Well, we started it off with this, but minus the grass huts. Not a bad way to begin a marriage if I do say so myself (and I did). Sunshine, (semi)warm water, free drinks.... it's pretty much all anyone could ask for. I think if I could live in Mexico for 3 months of the year I would. I'd have to leave after that though, too much rum.

Oh, I forgot to tell you, we had a guy come to the house today trying to solicit an estimate for windows. Those people that come to your door are pushy. I tried, "I don't think we'll be doing any renovations for awhile", and, "I need to talk to my wife, just give me your card", but that guy just wouldn't quit. I finally just gave him my phone number, but then he wanted to call his office on my phone. I said no thanks and told him to beat it. Why can't I ever just shut a door in someone's face right off the bat? I'll tell you why, I'm too much of a humanitarian.

BLT's are delicious, even if you wind up having a CLMB instead of a BLT. Who does that?

See you when I walk downstairs, love you.
