Restless and penniless

I feel anxious. Restless. Eager for adventure and the open road, or ancient cobblestoned streets of San Juan, whichever comes first. Been home for a week now, but due to unforseeable emergency concerning my uber expensive camera dying and having to replace it with a less powerful model to photograph this Saturday's wedding, I am now dead out of money. Had to call my Insurance, my two student loans and credit cards and inform them they won't get a penny out of me this month. It's always something when I come home to Puerto Rico.

Janice and I want to embark on a road trip (funny thing, seeing as you can drive all around Puerto Rico in just five hours). There are places I've never seen, towns I only know by name. Hopefully, I'll get some money next week.

It doesn't help that I'm reading On the Road. Maybe I should put that down for the time being.

*sigh* So anxious.

Though I got some time to reacquaint myself with my old cassette tapes, dating to 1993, where I would spend hours and hours glued to my old Sony radio and record every damn song played on air. Some muffled sounds are so pleasing to your ear, they transport you back to... good times.

There was also a slight quake last night as I watched Colbert. 3.5 on the scale, but for a half second, the house shook as if God had stomped his foot on the ground, but decided He was just being childish and went on to more important matters. And it was over. My heart could not find calm for another hour.
