Hi everyone, I’ve OD’d on sugar! Since Halloween, sugar has been in almost everything I’ve eaten. I’ve not only gained a few pounds, but I also feel quite sick. The past few days have been the worst. Since getting to South Florida, I’ve had nothing but garbage to eat. I am seeing blurry spots and feeling nauseas constantly. Not to mention, it’s 80 degrees. Yes, I am NOT exaggerating! It’s fucking 80 degrees and that’s with humidity!
When I got here on Saturday morning, the temp was in the upper 60s at 6am. By 7am, it was in the mid-70s. I got my rental car from National at the FLL Auto Center. It was so odd. You just show your ID and credit card, then head down to this giant lot with signage pointing you to compact, SUV, mid-size, etc. You can pick any car in your category (mine was compact). There was only ONE car for me to choose from, bah! I got a Saturn. I named him Blue Jay for the week.
After getting the car, I got onto 595 and headed West to University Drive. Going North on University, I noticed that many shops were out of business. Very odd! I have no clue what’s going on, but I believe this is a sign of another economic depression if the middle-upper class of Broward County can’t keep their shops open! Not good!
However, on a very wasteful note, on my way North up University, I was driving behind a raised Mercury Grand Marquis. Yes, raised… higher than any standard SUV! This thing needs a step stool or ladder to enter and exit! Gotta go… more later.
