And To Make Matters Worse

SHIP'S LOG:

     And to make matters worse, the 2014, 7lbs West Marine Catalog came in the mail today. Almost 1,000  glossy pages of all sorts of marine items, useful, needed, and totally useless and ridiculous. It is almost as bad as going to the store itself. I can always find lots of thing that I could "use," but it is more in line  with that verse from  that Jimmy Buffett song which goes, "Need is a relative thing these days/ it borders on desire/ the world is filled with lots of bright shiny thing/ we think that we really require."  It is why I don't go to boat shows anymore, I always leave sort of dissatisfied.  It seems that the more you have, the more you want. O well, this too will pass.

     I guess I should not have publicly said that  I would be going to unwrap ABISHAG on Saturday. The weather is forecasting "rain." Sigh! I might as well go anyway and do it as it has to be done sometime.
