back home on the beach

it's good to be back, charlotteville is beautiful, and besides, it was getting a bit crowded feeling in dat last place i's been in. me's lime on the beach last night with me podner's, and have us some fresh salmon and breadfruit cook in a fire on da beach. (it was amazing.)

oh, and some forgotten mentionables:

the mud here is red, like on prince edward island.

the ocean is so warm that it almost never cools you off, yet the rain is like ice -- for real, dread.

there is this weird stuff that you drink called mauby, which is kind of licorice-tasting, but i've never had anything like it. i'm slightly addicted to it.

everyone here showers at least twice a day.

i got to be part of a radio advertisement that some guys were doing for a concert at the sound studio where zach works. it was fun, we screamed into the mic and everything.

ok, now i go to take a sleep.

Weirdly off topic

Whilst reading your post I had a sudden revelation-I know who you are supposed to marry. Sadly I cannot divulge this information, for fear that it will mess with fate. Now I know that you will want to get a hold of this information despite the risk, but I am sorry, I cannot relent. I realized last year who Mackenzie was supposed to marry and, though I refused to give in fully, I gave him a few too many hints and suddenly all was lost. So I am sorry but you will have to live happily with the knowledge that you are supposed to marry someone and Fate has somehow allowed me this knowledge. (I do, however, feel like the Cassandra of Legend, in that whenever I have a stunning realization in re who someone should marry, they always run off with someone else whenever I try to give fate a nudge. :::sighs:::: Oh well. I suppose if you get the sudden urge to marry someone who I have not approved, as long as they have recieved sufficient innoculations, you should go to it).

Re: Weirdly off topic

no -- you seriously, have to tell me who it is. you can't let revelations like this go to waste! you are messing with fate by not telling me! how can you post something like this in the journal of an insanely confused and curious person?! are you trying to kill me?

Re: Weirdly off topic

Sorry, like Mr. Bennett, I am unmoved. See, this can work like a little sociological experiment with fate. Every so often it is revealed to me who other people should marry. I have, however, not been able to test this because fate is always screwed up by little hints and nudges and helps on my part. So, I shall allow fate to work its course, to see what happens, and you should just not worry your pretty little head over it, though I suppose it could be a nice thing to think every so often that there is someone out there for you, and there is no reason to doubt it because Finbar knows who the person is. WOULD THAT I WERE SO LUCKY! Though I suppose I would probably hunt down whoever knew my secret and strangle....I mean...treat them really really well until they told me.
Anyway, you dont know the person, at least I think you don't and if you did then wow, fate is good at its job. Still, sometimes its hard to figure out if a particular revelation has come directly from fate, or from my being bored and not having anything in particular to think about at work. Either way, I cannot divulge. Just be sure to invite me to your wedding, and afterwards I'll tell you if you picked the right person. Tehe. I mean, I'll tell you if I picked the right person.
Anywho, I hope all is well, and that I will see you one day before the end of all things, if only to talk about Gabriel Marcel, who keeps sneaking up on me and whispering into my ear that I should be a Philosophy major, and about other, more fun, things.
Good day,
Finbar

p.s. Only hint-Its not Sebastian. (I add this in partly because Sebastian gets agitated whenever I try to marry him off. I dont think he likes it when the fates talk to me about him. Also because he snores funny. No, that is not written wrong. He snores funny)
